Galilee to Jerusalem | Ep 11: Context and Nuance in Luke's Gospel
from Theology Unpacked · host London Jesuit Centre
In this “Theology Unpacked” episode, Dr John Moffatt SJ explores how Luke shapes his Gospel in a unique way, adding stories and details that bring extra depth to Jesus’ life and teaching. Compared to Matthew and Mark, Luke focuses more on real-life encounters, a broader view of history, and the world Jesus lived in. He also offers a more balanced view of the Pharisees and highlights how powerful leaders played a role in Jesus’ death, helping us see the Gospel as rooted in Jewish tradition but reaching out to all of humanity.📧 Sign up for regular updates, including follow-up study days!📚 Explore the wide range of reading materials in the Heythrop Library🤓 Join online or in-person courses at the London Jesuit CentreIf you find our podcasts helpful, please consider donating to the London Jesuit Centre.
