Todd Klutz - The Exorcism Stories in Luke-Acts: A Sociostylistic Reading
Published: 2004-08-02 | ISBN: 0521838045, 0521076056 | PDF | 312 pages | 1 MB


The distinctively Lukan version of the exorcism stories has attracted little interest from scholars in New Testament studies until recently. Setting the stories within their ancient cultural context, Todd Klutz uses linguistic analysis to cover popular beliefs as well as official religion. He sheds new light on the Jewishness of the text, and on the understanding of exorcism within the Hellenized Jewish religious world.
