Did Luke formulate a Parousia-free eschatology because early Christianity had experienced a crisis of faith from the delay in the Parousia and abandoned their earlier expectations? This book offers a new interpretative approach to the statements on the Parousia in Luke-Acts. It shows that the Parousia in Luke should be understood as an element of the Christ history associated with the rule of Christ in the present time. Die Parusie wird traditionell im Themenkomplex der Naherwartungsverzögerung behandelt. Aufgrund dieses Interpretationsparadigmas wurden der Ereigniszusammenhang der lukanischen Parusieaussagen und die Struktur der eschatologischen Perspektiven des Lukas kaum beachtet. Das vorliegende Buch untersucht die lukanische Parusieauffassung nicht nur vor dem Hintergrund der innerchristlichen Tradition, sondern stellt diese in den traditionsgeschichtlichen Kontext der frühjüdischen "Parusievorstellungen". Hierfür werden intensiv die frühjüdischen Schriften zu Zeitvorstellungen und Eschatologie untersucht und herangezogen.Die Parusie ist bei Lukas als ein mit der gegenwärtigen Herrschaft Christi verbundener integrierter Bestandteil des extendierten Christusgeschehens zu verstehen. Die Naherwartung zielt nicht auf einen vorhersagbaren Zeitpunkt, der verfehlt worden wäre, sondern bestimmt die eschatologische Dimension der alltäglichen "Wachsamkeit".

Scholars have long noted the prevalence of praise of God in Luke-Acts. This monograph offers the first comprehensive analysis of this important feature of Luke's narrative. It focuses on twenty-six scenes in which praise occurs, studied in light of ancient Jewish and Greco-Roman discourse about praise of deity and in comparison with how praise appears in the narratives of Tobit and Joseph and Aseneth. The book argues that praise of God functions as a literary motif in all three narratives, serving to mark important moments in each plot, particularly in relation to the themes of healing, conversion, and revelation. In Luke-Acts specifically, the plot presents the long-expected visitation of God, which arrives in the person of Jesus, bringing glory to the people of Israel and revelation to the Gentiles. The motif of praise of God aligns closely with the plot's structure, communicating to the reader that varied (and often surprising) events in the story - such as healings in Luke and conversions in Acts - together comprise the plan of God. The praise motif thus demonstrates the author's efforts to combine disparate source material into carefully constructed historiography.
