V. George Shillington introduces readers to the text, texture and
context of Luke-Acts in this tried and tested introduction, now in
its second edition. Using various approaches currently practiced by
biblical scholars Shillington outlines the methods of biblical
interpretation and then shows how they might be applied to the
texts in question. Through historical criticism Shillington looks
at and explains questions of authorship, the time and setting of
the composition, sources and historical background. Taking a
social-science approach he examines the society and culture of the
time. Literary readings include narrative, socio-rhetorical, and
audience-response approaches, while a theological reading asks how
the literary texture and themes of Luke-Acts shape the convictions
of Christian communities, past and present. Incorporating modern
approaches in the field, Shillington looks at postcolonial and
feminist criticism and how they have changed our understanding of
these books. Each chapter concludes with a list of further relevant
resources, and pertinent review questions. The text is accompanied
by charts and diagrams to illustrate key points of language and
structure.
