Description
Summary:	Because of Luke's unique literary achievement in the Gospel of Luke and Acts, these two works raise a variety of interesting and important issues for the exegete. In this important collection of essays, Tannehill demonstrates why he has been in the forefront of Luke-Acts research for more than three decades. His nuanced approach to the intersection of literary, theological, and social features in the texts marks these as required reading for any interpreter of the gospels.ContentsPart I: Theology, Poetry, Rhetoric1 The Mission of Jesus according to Luke 4:16-302 The Magnificat as Poem3 What Kind of King?
