Luke 1: 1-9:50 - Concordia Commentary - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Luke wrote his Gospel to provide a trustworthy, historical record of Jesus Christ. Rev. Dr. Arthur A. Just wrote this original commentary and translation to provide a faithful, thorough examination of the Gospel. Just develops four central themes in Luke: Christology, sacramentology, ecclesiology, and eschatology. In addition to exploring what Luke's narrative states, Just also asks how the narrative would have been appropriated by Luke's first readers, and how it contributes to the church's faith and worship today. This commentary's literary technique is based on a careful examination of the original Greek text. It reveals the intricate structure of Luke's Gospel and how that structure contributes to its message. The commentary includes outlines of each pericope that facilitate preaching and teaching the text. At appropriate junctures, Just provides extensive discussions of vital themes in the text, such as Baptism in Luke-Acts; Luke's prophet Christology; Jesus' table fellowship, the Passover, and the Lord's Supper; the Lukan Beatitudes; Luke's travel narrative, in which Christ journeys to the cross and open tomb; and Luke's use of the Old Testament to witness to Christ.

The series will cover all the canonical books of the Old and New Testament, with an original translation and meticulous grammatical analysis of the Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek of each text. The foremost interpretive lens centers on the unified proclamation of the person and work of Christ across every Scriptural book. The Commentary fully affirms the divine inspiration, inerrancy, and authority of Scripture; Each passage bears witness to the confession that God has reconciled the world to Himself through the incarnation, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Christ His Son. Authors expose the rich treasury of language, imagery, and thematic content of the Scripture, while supplementing their work with additional research in archaeology, history, and extrabiblical literature. Throughout, God's Word emanates from authors careful attention and inculcates the ongoing life of the Church in Word, Sacrament, and daily confession.
