Synopsis "Strange Acts: Studies in the Cultural World of the Acts of the Apostles (Beihefte zur Zeitschrift fur die Neutestamentliche Wissenschaft und die Kunde. Für die Neutestamentliche Wissensch) (in English)"
This book examines many of the strange events and actions in Acts in the context of the Hellenistic world and from that perspective. These events and actions include the ascension of Jesus, direction by the Spirit, visions, angelophanies, prison escapes and resuscitations of the dead. Many of these events are either avoided in scholarship or are investigated with an agenda other than to understand them for themselves. The book constructs an ancient audience to be one that has a close familiarity with the Septuagint and with other Greek and Latin writings. The culturally-strange events are then interpreted through the lens of these texts.
