THE APPROPRIATION OF PASSOVER IN LUKE-ACTS - DA...

Within Lukan scholarship  studies on the theme of Passover have mostly been confined to the
pericope of the Last Supper (Luke 22:1-20). Few have ventured outside it and explored the
presence  let alone the significance  of the theme in other passages throughout Luke-Acts. Thus
the aim of this study by Dany Christopher is to show where  how  and why Luke appropriates the
theme of Passover in his writings. The author proposes that besides the passion narrative 
allusions to Passover can be found in three other sets of passages: the infancy narrative  the
Parousia discourses in Luke 12 and Luke 17  and the rescue stories of Peter (Acts 12) and Paul
(Acts 27). He shows that the theme of Passover plays a major role in how Luke structures his
narratives and conveys the message of God's salvation.
