  • The Gospel According to Luke, Isaiah, and Origen
    Lumen et Vita 9:2 (2019), doi: 10.6017/lv.v9i2.11125 “To Evangelize the Poor:” The Gospel According to Luke, Isaiah, and Origen James E. Kelly Boston College School of Theology and Ministry (Brighton, MA) Abstract In this essay, I will examine the scriptural basis for Origen’s interpretation of Luke 4:18-19 as an allusion to Jesus’ identity as savior, not as a call to social justice. I argue that this interpretation is consistent with the intentions of the gospel writer. The essay begins with an analysis of the gospel writer’s redaction of Mark 1 in Luke 3-5. Based on that redaction, I hypothesize that Luke intends to emphasize Jesus’s identity with the anointed one mentioned in Isaiah 61:1-2. This excerpt from Isaiah not only gives Luke 4:18-19 its Christological significance but also clarifies Luke’s understanding of poverty in relation to the Gospel. I then examine Origen’s application of the Lucan passage for his pastoral purposes. To conclude, I suggest that we, like Luke and Origen, read Scripture Christocentrically in order to better facilitate the church’s encounter with Christ during the liturgy. Text If you want to see what it means to preach the Gospel, look at Jesus in the Nazareth synagogue. Within the Gospel of Luke,1 this occasion marks the first time Jesus preaches—and the first time he is rejected—during his public ministry. The other three evangelists don’t seem to remember it well. For Matthew and Mark, the rejection at Nazareth pales in comparison to the many miracles Jesus previously performed throughout Galilee; for John, this event goes unmentioned.2 What matters to Luke is the message Jesus preaches in the Nazareth synagogue, an excerpt from the book of the prophet Isaiah: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, on account of which He has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.

    Making Disciples that Delight in the Supremacy of Jesus Christ COMMUNITY GROUP STUDY GUIDE The Lord & His Lieutenants LUKE 6:1-19 OVERVIEW Luke is the longest and most comprehensive of the four Gospels, presenting Jesus as the Perfect Man who came to save sinful men. Growing belief and growing opposition develop side by side. Those who believe his claims are challenged to count the cost of discipleship; those who oppose him will not be satisfied until the Son of Man hangs lifeless on a cross. But the resurrection ensures that his ministry of seeking and saving the lost will continue through his disciples once they have been equipped with the indwelling Holy Spirit. Luke reveals that Jesus is the King, and he has come to inaugurate his Kingdom. (Adapted from Talk Through the Bible). APPLY // LUKE 5:17-39 1. Read Luke 5:17-39. 2.

  • Squabbling Over the Sabbath Luke 6:1-11
    July 10, 2016 DR. ROBERT JEFFRESS SQUABBLING OVER THE SABBATH LUKE 6:1-11 INTRODUCTION: Should Christians go out to eat, go to the movies, or shop on Sunday? Up until several decades ago, there were laws that prohibited what citizens — whether Christian or not — could purchase on Sundays. Today we are going to discover what Jesus said — and didn’t say — about the Sabbath. I. A Summary Of The Sabbath A. Its Meaning Exodus 20:8-11 “8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you. 11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.” B. Its Purpose C. Its Distortion D. Its Relevance Colossians 2:16-17 “16 Therefore let no one act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or new moon or a Sabbath day— 17 things which are a mere shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ.” 1 SQUABBLING OVER THE SABBATH Luke 6:1-11 July 10, 2016 | DR. ROBERT JEFFRESS Romans 14:10-13 “10 But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you regard your brother with contempt? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God.

  • The Visitation & the Magnificat
    The Visitation & the Magnificat A Closer Look at the Gospels of Advent and Christmas The women of both annunciations meet The Angel Gabriel informed Mary of the Elizabeth’s pregnancy (v. 36-37) When the angel leaves her, she arises and depart immediately She travels in haste to Judea This is an area west of Jerusalem in the hills outside the city God’s Plan The mention of Elizabeth’s sixth month indicates that this is part of God’s plan The haste of Our Lady’s response indicates her obedience to God’s plan in going immediately Nothing said by God can be impossible. This is an echo of the Abraham – Sarah story in Genesis 18: 14. Maternity or Discipleship Elizabeth blesses Our Lady to emphasize Luke’s interest in presenting her as the model of discipleship Blessed is she for being the mother of a son, a son who is the Messiah, but blessed also is she who believes and trusts in the Lord Even the child in her womb literally jumps for joy at this blessing as he will identify him later Blessing Elizabeth has twice blessed Our Lady in her greeting It would be appropriate for Our Lady to respond then with a blessing for Elizabeth Instead, Our Lady responds by blessing the Lord The Magnificat Mary’s Song of Praise The Handmaid An imagery that is reflective of both Hannah the mother of Samuel and Our Lady as the Mother of the Redeemer Handmaid is the feminine rendering of slave This may be reflective of the social status of many Christians in the first century Our Lady becomes the spokesperson for the lowly or enslaved Hannah and Miriam of Nazareth 1 Samuel (Hannah) Luke 1 (Miriam) 11: O Lord of hosts, if you will look 48: Because he has regarded the on the low estate of your low estate of his handmaid handmaid 51-53: He has shown the strength 7-8: The Lord makes poor and of His arm; He has scattered the make rich; He reduces to lowliness proud in the imagination of their and He lifts up.

  • Gospel: Luke 6:20-26 Raising His Eyes Toward His Disciples Jesus Said
    Homily Transcript by Fr. Michael Sparough, SJ Gospel: Luke 6:20-26 Raising his eyes toward his disciples Jesus said: "Blessed are you who are poor, for the Kingdom of God is yours. Blessed are you who are now hungry, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who are now weeping, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice and leap for joy on that day! Behold, your reward will be great in heaven. For their ancestors treated the prophets in the same way. But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation. But woe to you who are filled now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will grieve and weep. Woe to you when all speak well of you, for their ancestors treated the false prophets in this way." Homily: Let Us Be One in Christ I'm sure you know that there are two sets of Beatitudes in the Scriptures, those in Matthew and those in Luke. Matthew's are the Sermon on the Mount. Luke's Beatitudes are the sermon on the plane. Matthew's Beatitudes begin with, "Blessed are the poor in spirit," Luke's Beatitudes, which we just heard, "Blessed are you who are poor." As I was praying over this Scripture this morning, there was a call for us to see the poor as blessed and to see ourselves in our own poverty and our own struggles as blessed.

When Jesus journeyed for the last time to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover, He was ready to complete his work on earth. For three years He had taught the people, preaching the gospel of the kingdom and demonstrating with signs and wonders that He was the Messiah, the Anointed One, promised by the Old Testament prophets. Now He would suffer, die, then triumph over death by rising the third day. Jesus had previously resisted attempts to be made king (John 6:15), and He had cautioned his disciples to tell no man He was the Christ or tell of the vision of the transfiguration (Matt.

  • The Difficult Gospel of Jesus: Kingdom Loving and Living Luke 6:27-49 Rev
    THE DIFFICULT GOSPEL OF JESUS: KINGDOM LOVING AND LIVING LUKE 6:27-49 REV. CHARLES R. BIGGS Introduction Jesus has laid the foundation of the reconstruction of Israel and he has begun to proclaim the gospel of the New Jerusalem in Luke 6:12-26. Jesus has pronounced blessings on those who are poor, those who are hungry, those who weep, and those who are hated because of their association with Jesus. He has also pronounced woes on the self-reliant, the selfish, those who haughtily laugh at others and are spoken well of. What the world thinks are blessings, Jesus pronounces them as woes or curses. Jesus continues to preach his “Sermon on the Plain” to the Apostles, the disciples, and the crowds by teaching them more about the gospel of the Kingdom, and what the people of the New Jerusalem will look like in him. In the continuation of Jesus’ Kingdom sermon, he tells more about how the gospel of the New Jerusalem will change one’s way of loving and living, and he contrasts this gospel to the teaching of the Pharisees and the Teachers of the Law because they have begun to oppose he and his Kingdom ministry (6:11). We must understand this portion of Scripture in the context of the opposition of the Pharisees and Scribes who represent “old Jerusalem” and the proclamation of a “gospel” that was no gospel at all (cf. Gal. 1:6-9), to the gospel of the New Jerusalem and the gospel of Jesus that truly saves- -as well as changes us from the inside out.
