26th. session. The Gospel of Luke
Gospel Witness I. DOCTRINAL OBJECTIVE: into the heart of this Gospel. II. LIVING OBJECTIVE: To assimilate the message Lucas nos transmite en su Evangelio. III. TESIS: El Evangelio de san Lucas es el Evangelio de la misericordia y tiene como objetivo presentar la ternura de Dios para con todos los pecadores y necesitados. Está escrito en griego culto, pues Lucas es un cristiano educado en ambientes helenistas. Intentó responder a la situación que vivía su comunidad cristiana, amenazada por la rutina y la tentación de aferrarse a los bienes de este mundo. Por eso, invita a la conversión, y para ello nada mejor que recordar las palabras y la vida de Jesús. A Lucas lo pintan con un toro, porque comienza su evangelio con los sacrificios que hacían en el templo, donde cada tarde se sacrificaba una res. IV. EXPLANATION OF THE THESIS 1. Author, date and target was written by Luke, a physician, educated man and perfect knowledge of Greek. He was a disciple of St. Paul. It was a direct witness of the Lord's life. Maybe it was Mary who gave most of the information contained in the first chapters of his gospel. I must have written prior to the fall of Jerusalem, AD 70. And the recipients of his work are pagan Hellenistic Christians, not Roman. 2. Literary characteristics
a) Writes the elegant style of a writer who goes to the educated in the Greek world who were interested in Christianity. His vocabulary is very rich, but without useless frills. The delicacy of Luke is also seen in the fact that mitigates the strong feelings of Jesus: Jesus is not angry, or violent Pedro. b) His sources: oral (Paul and other apostles, Mary), written (written documents circulating in the Christian communities Gospel of Mark and the Q source.)
c) It tells how a journalist or modern biographer, but it highlights the events and words of Jesus, adapting them to their sensitivity and message they want to give the Christian communities. 3. Division and thematic content
Taking into account the two works of Lucas, we see the plan and Lucan: a) time Israel or the time for promises: it ends with the preaching of the Baptist. b)
time of Jesus or the time of salvation: with Jesus in the center of all echo the good news, first to Israel and then the whole world. c) time the Church or the time the witness (Acts of the Apostles), the Spirit is given to the apostles to be witnesses of the Gospel and it should resound throughout the land. Lucan This plan follows a geographical journey that is both a spiritual journey:
time of Jesus or the time of salvation: with Jesus in the center of all echo the good news, first to Israel and then the whole world.
a)
begins in Jerusalem, the center of Judaism, with the announcement of the birth of the Baptist, which is the link between the former and New Alliance.
from Galilee, Jesus begins his ascent to Jerusalem.
d)
In Jerusalem, the center of the Good News, the Gospel is proclaimed in Judea, Samaria and then to the ends of the earth.
structure or division of the Gospel of Luke is this:
+ Introduction: Children and preparation
mystery (1 to 4.13).
+
Ministry in Galilee (4.14 to 9.50). +
Journey to Jerusalem (9, 51-19, 28), is the original of Luke.
+
Ministry in Jerusalem (19, 29 to 21.38).
+ Passion and glorification of Jesus (22, 1-24, 53)
4. Theological and spiritual content
End of the gospel of Luke: entire Gospel of Luke aims to present Jesus as the great friend of sinners, as the most merciful and kind of beings that have existed.
Key:
The situation of this community is not tense or the Jews or the Romans. Christians in the province of Syria are in dialogue with Greek culture. In recent years, Christian communities had lost their initial enthusiasm. They were accommodating to the daily routine: I was attracted to land values, like money or power, no longer had counterweight pending an imminent coming of the Lord. In these circumstances, Lucas tries to revive the faith and enthusiasm of the believers to have security in the authenticity of the teachings they have received. Highlighting the role that Jesus in history, intends to write a history of salvation. In this path to salvation is to go free from restrictions, as wealth and other commitments.
presents Jesus as a model of the Prophet anointed as Savior and Lord.
presents the Church as a church incarnated in human history, always on the way to realize the plan of Jesus, a church able to shed all the accessory that prevents you keep walking. The particular way of this Church's presence in human history is told in the second part of the work of Luke (the Acts).
presents the journey of the disciple,
+ First the disciple is called (Lk 5: 1-11). + passes through a stage of euphoria following Jesus (Lk 9, 20-36).
+ Jesus cleansed of your pride and prepares you for the time of the fall (Lk 22, 31-34). + The decline of inner purification to mandate (Lk 22, 54-62).
Content:
a)
is the Gospel of mercy and forgiveness large : in this Gospel we find the pages that best speak of tenderness and mercy of God.
b) It is the Gospel of universal salvation:
forgiveness and tenderness that reaches to all men.
c)
is the Gospel of the Poor:
emphasizes Jesus' predilection for the poor, the marginalized, the Samaritan, the despised.
d)
The Gospel of Prayer:
presents Jesus in prayer, taught his disciples to pray, gives examples of prayer to Mary, in Zechariah, in Gethsemane, on the cross.
e) is the Gospel of the Holy Spirit
the fruit of prayer is the Holy Spirit. Lucas insists on the centrality the Holy Spirit in the life of Jesus and the Christian.
f)
The Gospel of Joy:
a life of prayer, of union with the Holy Spirit is a source of joy and happiness for all. Salvation given to all breeds joy.
g)
is the Gospel of the radical and demands of the teacher:
God's tenderness and optimism of salvation does not hide the difficulties and the shadows of the life of Jesus and the Christian. It is a renunciation of wealth, mostly.
V. CONCLUSION: If we call the Gospel of Mark catechumen, because its aim was to provoke the act of faith in Jesus as Son of God, Luke is known as the Gospel of the witness or evangelize. One reason is because their structure is like a gradual formation of Christian witness and evangelization. Lucas teaches Christians to spread the word to those who do not believe. This is precisely why Lucas felt the need to continue with the Acts of the Apostles, in order to present a series of examples of catechesis and evangelization in the early Church.
PRAYER:
Lord Jesus, I recognize as Saviour, full of tenderness and mercy. That we take your love to all men. Amen.
