Book excerpt: This study examines the place of Jerusalem and its Temple within Luke's Gospel, arguing, in Part One, that Luke's treatment of these related entities must be explored and understood against the broader horizon of Luke's use of Scripture, his rhetorical milieu, and his theological context. Attending to Luke's rhetorical context indicates sensitivity to what is termed here "subtle communication," especially via double-meanings and use of allusion (intertextuality). Placed within Luke's theological context, the recent destruction of Jerusalem confronted Luke (along with other late-first-century readers of Israel's Scripture) as above all a problem of theodicy: how to defend God in the face of Jerusalem's utter devastation. In surveying previous literature on this topic, this study notes two frequent failures: to give Luke full credit as a theologian, as well as to account properly for the narrative shape of his Gospel. Attempting in Part Two to remedy these common shortcomings, this study undertakes a reassessment of the place of Jerusalem and its Temple in Luke's Gospel, analyzing crucial scenes within the Gospel in light of the Gospel's overall narrative flow. This analysis yields a portrait of the Jerusalem Temple in Luke's Gospel that is complex, multi-fold, and coherent, one comprised of four interwoven strands constituting an engaging theological response to the pressing theodical concerns of his day. These strands are: 1) an interpretation of Jerusalem along the lines of Shiloh, the rejected one-time holy place of God; 2) an emphasis on the Temple's role in disclosing Jesus' identity, logically coupled with a narratival shift away from the Jerusalem Temple as a sacerdotal cultic site, begun with Jesus' (and to a lesser degree John's) arrival, and culminating at the cross; 3) an identification of Jesus as a prophet, indeed as the greatest of the prophets, vis-á-vis, and thus in conflict with, the city now described as murderer of the prophets; and 4) an appeal to a spectrum of (mostly prophetic) scriptures that depict God's judging his people, especially the Jerusalem authorities, for their wickedness. It concludes with a brief treatment of Acts.

Book excerpt: This book merges and harmonizes the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John into one. This unified version, which I call The Gospel, is based on the faith that the four different gospels exist in order to form together the complete story of Jesus life and ministry. I consolidated these sources by identifying common denominators among them as well as parts that are unique to each, and then interweaving it all into a single narrative, using only original texts. This integrated version may offer greater incentive to our youth, laymen, and non-believers as well as professionals to read and learn more about what Jesus did and taught. (Acts 1:1). In the past, there have been many attempts to make the four Gospels easier for readers, often displaying similar episodes in parallel columns, in an effort to resolve the Gospels narrative complexity by harmonizing them in one way or another; however, in regard to the text itself, previous books do not rise to the level of precision and completeness that is achieved here. Answering this need for a clear chronological telling of The Story of Jesus, this book unifies every account of the four Gospels into a single story, without omitting or compromising any part. On a given topic in Jesus ministry, this book uses as its base whichever gospel is the greatest common denominator, consolidates identical or similar parts from other Gospels, and integrates the unique and different elements of each book into a single story.
