Resumen
BARUS, Armand y CHRISTOPHER, Dany. Jesus, the personified temple in Lukan 'L'. Herv. teol. stud. [online]. 2024, vol.80, n.1, pp.1-7. ISSN 2072-8050. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/hts.v80i1.9527.
Prayer and the temple were two of the most prominent themes in the Third Gospel and they have garnered scholarly interest. However, the discussion about prayer vis-à-vis the temple in Luke's special source (L) has gone unnoticed. Using source criticism and narrative criticism, the research shows a connection between prayer and the temple in L. The relationship between the two reflects the development from a belief in the temple as a place for praying and receiving an answer, to Jesus who intercedes for the people. This article argues that the prayer in Luke's special source revealed Jesus as the new, personified temple through whom the L communities prayed and received answers to their prayers. Based on this finding, this article then shows the possible reconstruction of the separation between Judaism and Christianity from the perspective of L communities. CONTRIBUTION: This article contributes to the discussion on Lukan Christology by proposing that Jesus is the new personified temple as understood by the L communities. Such a depiction lends new support to Dunn's reconstruction of the parting of the ways between Jews and Christians.
