9. D DBQ Questions Luke 1: 1-44:14-21 Luke 1:1-4 Since many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the events that have been fulfilled among us, a 2just as those who were eyewitnesses from the beginning and ministers of the word have handed them down to us, b 3I too have decided, after investigating everything accurately anew, to write it down in an orderly sequence for you, most excellent Theophilus, 4so that you may realize the certainty of the teachings you have received. a b

10. Footnotes [1:1–4] The Gospel according to Luke is the only one of the synoptic gospels to begin with a literary prologue. Making use of a formal, literary construction and vocabulary, the author writes the prologue in imitation of Hellenistic Greek writers and, in so doing, relates his story about Jesus to contemporaneous Greek and Roman literature. Luke is not only interested in the words and deeds of Jesus, but # 1 also in the larger context of the birth, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus as the fulfillment of the promises of God in the Old Testament. As a second- or third-generation Christian, Luke acknowledges his debt to earlier eyewitnesses and ministers of the word, but claims that his contribution to this developing tradition is a complete and accurate account, told in an orderly manner, and intended to provide #2 Theophilus (“friend of God,” literally) and other readers with certainty about earlier teachings they have received.1:14

11. Luke 4: 14-21 The Beginning of the Galilean Ministry. 14 j Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news of him spread * throughout the whole region. k 15He taught in their synagogues and was praised by all. j * k The Rejection at Nazareth. * l 16He came to Nazareth, where he had grown up, and went according to his custom * #3 into the synagogue on the sabbath day. He stood up to read 17and was handed a scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the passage where it was written: * l * 18“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, * because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor. m He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, 19and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord.” 20Rolling up the scroll, he handed it back to the attendant and sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue looked intently at him. 21He said to them, “Today this scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.” * * m *

12. Footnotes * [4:16–30] Luke has transposed to the beginning of Jesus’ ministry an incident from his Marcan source, which situated it near the end of the Galilean ministry (Mk 6:1–6a). In doing so, Luke turns the initial admiration (Lk 4:22) and subsequent rejection of Jesus (Lk 4:28–29) # 4 into a foreshadowing of the whole future ministry of Jesus. Moreover, the rejection of Jesus in his own hometown hints at the greater rejection of him by Israel (Acts 13:46).4:1630Mk 6:16aLk 4:22Lk 4:2829Acts 13:46 [4:16] According to his custom: # 5 Jesus’ practice of regularly attending synagogue is carried on by the early Christians’ practice of meeting in the temple (Acts 2:46; 3:1; 5:12).4:16Acts 2:463:1 5:12 * [4:18] The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me: see note on Lk 3:21–22. As this incident develops, Jesus is portrayed as a prophet whose ministry is compared to that of the prophets Elijah and Elisha. Prophetic anointings are known in first-century Palestinian Judaism from the Qumran literature that speaks of prophets as God’s anointed ones. To bring glad tidings to the poor:#6 more than any other gospel writer Luke is concerned with Jesus’ attitude toward the economically and socially poor (see Lk 6:20, 24; 12:16–21; 14:12–14; 16:19–26; 19:8). At times, the poor in Luke’s gospel are associated with the downtrodden, the oppressed and afflicted, the forgotten and the neglected (Lk 4:18; 6:20–22; 7:22; 14:12–14), and it is they who accept Jesus’ message of salvation.4:18Lk 3:2122Lk 6:202412:162114:121416:192619:8Lk 4:186:20227:2214:1214
