By evoking the audience’s lived experience of Roman rule—its stories, works of literature, monuments, and images—the Lukan narratives communicate about God’s kingdom in a culturally meaningful way, sometimes mirroring, sometimes diverging from, and sometimes subverting the logic of these expressions of Roman rule. Touching on a wide range of issues—including gender, ethnic representation, status disparities, economic and military imperialism, and violence—this book is suggestive regarding both the Lukan vision of the kingdom of God and Lukan dispositions toward aspects of Roman rule. aRome aKingdom of God aBible NT Acts Criticism, interpretation, etc aBible NT Luke Criticism, interpretation, etc4 uhttps://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15314/22.jpgyCover Image aHuỳnh Thị Ngọc Bích a231010 TKH c15165d15165 00104070aTVCDbTVCDd2026-01-20g0.00l0pTVCD-15165v0.00yBK
