* A new and distinctive take on the earliest Gospel * Thoroughly gounded in traditional disciplines---but also archaeology and the social sciences
Bovon's magisterial commentary on the Gospel of Luke is justly renowned for its combination of judicious historical and literary treatment of the Evangelist's context and for its theological sensitivity. This volume completes the three-volume work and represents the author's careful revision and updating of the German original.
A valuable guide to scholarship through the present time.
The Acts of the Apostles joins the Gospel of Luke with the ministry of Paul. The author shows how this masterful storyteller worked his magic, drawing on first-century literary techniques of narration and characterization.
