Produktbeschreibung

Abraham, Ancestry, and Ethnicity in Luke's Gospel: From These Stones explores how Luke employs ancestry--especially descent from Abraham--to recategorize believers and nonbelievers. Capitalizing on the surprising slipperiness of race antiquity, Luke offers a new layer of ethnic identity to gentile believers, as Abraham's extended family.
