Harmonization in Action: Luke's central section: Does Jesus do a loop-de-loop?

from The Lydia McGrew Podcast Hosted by The Lydia McGrew Podcast

Here I deal with the last puzzle of Luke's central section--the apparent loop-de-loop formed by 9:51 (Jesus leaves Galilee with his face set to Jerusalem to be "received up"), 10:38ff (Jesus is at the house of Martha and Mary, which we know from John's Gospel was in Bethany, near Jerusalem, and 17:11ff (Jesus is 'way back up along the border between Galilee and Samaria, in the Jezreel valley). What's up with that? I point out how achronological narration means that Luke may very well not have been trying to indicate that Jesus healed the lepers in 17:11ff chronologically after he was in the home of Mary and Martha in Chapter 10. In fact, there's a rather perfect place right in Luke where the incident of the ten lepers fits quite well. Watch to find out where. (At just after the 8-minute mark I mention an undesigned coincidence, discussed in an earlier video, with John 7. By a slip of the tongue I say Luke 7.)
