Lk 22:35-38 is peculiar because it is never proclaimed except on
Palm Sunday in the Year C. Although it is a pragmatic instruction
on mission, it puzzles us like the Apostles in the Upper Room. The
Lord shortly before his arrest, asserting the importance of the
teaching, mandates preparedness for mission in the
post-resurrectional period of the Church. The shepherd must be
prepared to defend the sheep under his/her care, even to the extent
of being called "lawless" according to world standards. Lk 22:35-38
thus in no way contradicts the prior mission training sendings,
rather endows the missionary with greater strategic responsibility
and commitment in pastoral care. The book highlights the
contextual, hermeneutical, and theological dimensions in the final
teaching of Jesus in the Lukan narration.
