This volume examines characterization in the four Gospels and in
the Sayings Gospel Q. Peter in Matthew, Lazarus in John, and Jesus
as Son of Man in Q are examples of the characters studied. The
general approach is narrative-critical. At the same time, each
contribution takes special effort to widen the scope beyond the
narrated world to include the text's ideological and real-life
setting as well as its effective history. New ways of doing
narrative criticism are thus proposed. The concluding essay by
David Rhoads delineates the development and envisions the future of
narrative criticism in Gospel studies.

In recent years, scholars have explored anew the interface between
the early Christian movements and the Roman Empire. Once thought to
be quietistic, the early Christian movements turn out to have been
critical of the Empire and significantly counterimperial. This
collection of essays in honor of Robert Brawley turns the spotlight
on Luke-Acts. The soundings taken here disclose deeper
anti-imperial rhetoric than previously thought. In brazen and
subtle ways, Luke-Acts displays an alternative realm of peace and
justice inaugurated by Jesus under the God of Israel. The essays in
this volume will lead you to hear Luke-Acts in fresh ways.
