| Summary: | Interpreters commonly connect Luke 4:18-19 and Acts 2:17-21 as programmatic passages in Luke-Acts. However, the program of Acts 2:17-21 they typically develop is less than what Luke actually presents. Luke's program includes five elements that speak loudly throughout Luke-Acts: (1) a distinct salvation history; (2) a new deluge of the Spirit; (3) a new universality of prophecy; (4) a new diversity of spiritual gifts; and (5) a new promise of salvation in Jesus's name. Each of these needs to speak if Luke's narrative intentions are to be heard. The study wrestles first with the intricate craftsmanship of the author as narrator in setting up Acts 2:17-21 and then explores the five elements of the theological program of the passage. Though not developed fully, this program is also seen as encompassing the whole church age and the entire NT. |
