Abstract
"Juel demands that Christians interpret Luke-Acts together within the framework of the Jewish crisis literature out of which they came. His hypothesis is that the best approach to understanding Luke-Acts is to study them as a single entity from the perspective of the literary dimension of New Testament texts. His reappraisal of Luke-Acts is sensitive to the historical concerns as well as the literary concerns. He provides a comprehensive treatment showing how the two books are intricately and integrally connected." -- From back cover.
