Generally, Jesus' logion is taken to convey a macabre image of impending judgement. However, this study offers fresh literary, redactional, and historical evidence to suggest that Luke recast Jesus' saying in order to describe something much more glorious--the deliverance of the elect. Examination of the material elsewhere in Luke-Acts corroborates Luke's expectation of an ethereal reunion, and suggests that this hope constitutes the most characteristic feature of Lukan eschatology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45088377798807,"sku":"9780826462176","price":20266.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780826462176.webp?v=1767267339","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/where-the-eagles-are-gathered-9780826462176","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
