"All too often Acts is studied after and separately from the four Gospels, so that the distinctiveness and consistency of Luke's message, developed across his two volumes, is lost. This new edition of George Shillington's Introduction to the Study of Luke-Acts remedies that neglect. The book continues but amplifies its predecessor's value in opening up Luke's two-part work, especially for those commencing university or college. Based on a deep grasp of the New Testament texts in their social context, Shillington introduces his readers to the engaging content of the Lucan message and the latest critical methods for understanding it. Written with verve and clarity, this book should feature on any reading list for undergraduate New Testament courses but will also provide enlightenment to those at more advanced stages in biblical interpretation." --Philip Esler, University of Gloucestershire, UK
"As this book presents historical, social scientific, socio-rhetorical, narrative, postcolonial, feminist, and theological interpretation of the foundational New Testament story of the emergence of Christianity in Luke and Acts, the reader richly experiences the range of interpretive modes that currently dominate biblical interpretation. Readers of this book should not be surprised if at the end they feel a desire to learn more both about emerging Christianity and about how these approaches yield new insights into all of New Testament literature." --Vernon K. Robbins, Emory University, USA
