Mikeal Parsons, a leading scholar on Luke and Acts, examines cultural context and theological meaning in Luke in this addition to the well-received Paideia series. This commentary, like each in the projected eighteen-volume series, proceeds by sense units rather than word-by-word or verse-by-verse. Paideia commentaries explore how New Testament texts form Christian readers by attending to the ancient narrative and rhetorical strategies the text employs, showing how the text shapes theological convictions and moral habits, and making judicious use of maps, photos, and sidebars in a reader-friendly format.

Industry Reviews

"Parsons is doing creative work and this work should not be ignored by his fellow scholars."--Robert C. Tannehill, Methodist Theological School in Ohio, in Review of Biblical Literature (July 21, 2007)"

"Parsons offers the seminary student or advanced undergraduate a detailed introduction to Luke as author within three ancient contexts: pagan, Jewish, and emerging Christian."--Kindalee P. DeLong, Pepperdine University, Religious Studies Review ?(34:4)

"Parsons' incisive and challenging interpretations should move the field of Lucan studies forward on several important fronts, notably in terms of method and theology. This book will make an excellent addition to required reading lists for graduate courses on Luke and Acts."--John A. Darr, Boston College, Catholic Biblical Quarterly ?(70:3)
