Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book presents a significant new interpretation of the role of divine testing in Luke-Acts. By using narrative criticism, fresh insights are offered on these texts, which are often considered 'difficult' or 'unintelligible' by modern readers. Author Cato Gulaker argues that the numerous allusions to divine testing make good sense within the theological rationale of Luke, including the idea of praying to God in order for him not to lead his petitioners into temptation. As this element of the New Testament writings in general, and Luke in particular, is frequently overlooked in academic publications, this book will be vital for scholars, clergy, and general readers interested in the theology and cosmology of the two-part Lukan narrative.'One of the main themes in Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles is that life is a series of trials, and that God Himself is the tester-in-chief. Gulaker brings this theme to the fore as never before, and shows us the true meaning of 'lead us not into temptation.''-Henry Ansgar Kelly, Distinguished Research Professor, English Department, University of California, Los Angeles'In this careful study of Luke-Acts, Cato Gulaker argues that the figure of Satan should be interpreted as an agent of divine testing within a monistic worldview. Rather than an independent cosmic enemy of God and the church, Satan operates with divine authority to test, validate or disqualify the discipleship of members of the Christian community. Gulaker's highly stimulating work continues to cast new light on the shadowy figure of Satan in the New Testament.'-Paul Middleton, Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity, University of Chester 224 pp. Englisch.
