Produktbeschreibung
The recent resurgence of scholarship on Luke's Gospel is due, in part, to this Gospel's special appeal for an age in which questions of economic justice, peace, and the prophetic role of the Churches questions all important in Luke are so urgent. Father Senior's exegesis yields a strong sense of what Luke intended to communicate to his readers and, to some degree, what may have been the circumstances that shaped his message. He reveals the Luke who presents Jesus as a champion of the poor and marginalized, whose message of justice is proclaimed with a sharp prophetic edge. Donald Senior, CP, has labored long to fathom and share the meaning of the passion of Jesus in all its aspects. The passion narratives have been a major focus of his scholarly career, beginning with his dissertation at the University of Louvain on the passion narrative according to Matthew, which is a significant contribution to scholarship on the death of Jesus. Now the harvest of his years of biblical, theological and historical studies on the passion is presented in The Passion Series.
