The Elijah-Elisha Narrative in the Composition of Luke
Overview
This collection, edited by John S. Kloppenborg and Joseph Verheyden, examines the Elisha-Elijah narrative and its potential use in, and influence upon, the Gospel of Luke. The volume presents the case for the heavy influence of the Elisha-Elijah narrative upon Luke, put forward by Thomas L. Brodie and John Shelton, and includes responses to this thesis from Robert Derrenbacker, Alex Damm, F. Gerald Downing, David Peabody and Dennis MacDonald. The contributions to this volume provide fascinating insights into the composition of the Gospel of Luke and the editorial processes involved in its creation. Contributions cover different approaches to the text, including issues of intertextuality and rhetorical-critical examinations. The distinguished contributors and fast-paced debate make this book an indispensable addition to any theological library.
