Description

Contemporary reconstructions of Luke's theology of the Way should include in a more conscientious manner the contribution of Luke's post-Easter "on the road" encounters (the Emmaus, Gaza, and Damascus road narratives). This book argues that Luke follows here the rules of Hellenistic mimesis (imitation), many of which are illustrated in the novels, dramas, and history treatises of his time. Filtering these rules through his own theology and literary taste, he represents, in the end, the history and the proclamation of the early church, in an attractive and challenging manner, inviting his readers to good literature and to captivating spiritual experiences.

Author Biography:

Octavian D. Baban is New Testament lecturer at the Baptist Theological Institute, Bucharest, and at the Bucharest State University, Romania, a Baptist minister, and an active member of the Translation Committee of the Romanian Bible Society. Born by the Black Sea, he studied physics (BA, MASc) and, after the communist regime fell in 1989, he turned decisively to his earlier love of the Scriptures (BA in Biblical Theology and PhD at the London Bible College, Brunel University). He has published university textbooks on New Testament introduction and New Testament Greek. He is married with two children.
