This was in consequence of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Since there was no 2020 General Assembly, no Acts and Proceedings could be prepared for that year. In its place, this book of records and statistics was produced to document annual information and records for The Presbyterian Church in Canada. Interim reports from the standing committees of the General Assembly were provided on the denominational website for the information of the church, and in anticipation of being considered at the next General Assembly.

This paper will survey representative interpretations of this concept in the historical Jesus literature, and attempt to situate Jesus understanding of “the rule of God” within the spectrum of Greco-Roman and hellenistic Jewish political thought, with special reference to the works of Josephus and Philo. In particular, Jesus’ use of the phrase will be considered as one of several hellenistic Jewish responses to the loss of native rule, and examine the implications of the concept for the application of the term “messiah” to the historical Jesus. 8:30-9:00 David Miller (McMaster University) “Orality, Written Texts and the Locus of Authority in Luke- Acts” In this paper, I will argue that Luke’s assumptions about communication challenge a prominent scholarly model of the formation of the Jesus tradition. The relationship between the oral teaching of Jesus, the oral transmission of Jesus’ sayings by the church, and the written Gospels will be analyzed through a study of references to written texts and oral communication in Luke-Acts.
