The âExodusâ in Jerusalem (Luke 9:31)
A Lukan Form of Israelâs Restoration Hope
Series: - Biblical Interpretation Series, Volume: 204
Author:
This book addresses the dearth of study in Lukan scholarship on the transfiguration account and provides a model of new exodus based on the Song of the Sea (Exod 15) beyond the two majorâDeuteronomi(sti)c and Isaianicâmodels. The proposed Exodus 15 pattern explicates the enigmatic phrase âhis âexodusâ in Jerusalemâ in the transfiguration account. It also elucidates how the seemingly discordant motifs of Moses and David are conjoined within a larger drama of the (new) exodus and the subsequent establishment of Israelâs (eschatological) worship space. This shows how Luke deals with the issues of temple (Acts 7), circumcision (Acts 15), and the ambivalent nature of Jerusalem.
W. Gil Shin, PhD (2016), Fuller Theological Seminary, is Affiliate Professor of New Testament at the same seminary. He has published books and articles, including CEB Gospel Parallels (Abingdon, 2012) and âThe Double Entendre of Paulâs Trade as ΣκηνοÏοιÏÏ,â NovT (2022).
The primary readership is expected to be New Testament scholars and graduate students, who are interested in the study of scriptural traditions and Luke-Acts, the methodological explorations of literary/intertextual approach, and the issues of restoration eschatology.
