From the beginning God is responsible for promised action, including the geographic expansion--'in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth' (1:7)--referenced in Jesus' response to the disciples, clearly related to Luke's purpose in writing the book. Geographic expansion, however, is only the second part of Jesus' reply.

This unfolds Luke's purpose in assuring the reader concerning the events that have taken place, helping to more fully illuminate Luke's theology concerning God and his kingdom. 226 pp. Englisch.
