Abstract:
This article presents a source-critical argument for the relation among the controversies over the Sabbath in the Synoptic Gospels, devoting particular attention to the minor agreements of Matthew and Luke against Mark in these traditions. Special attention is given to the gospel of Luke, whose unique development of the Sabbath controversy tradition is charted. Against the prominent notion that Luke’s concern with the Sabbath is rooted in early Christian ethical struggles against Judaism, this study argues that Luke’s treatment of the Sabbath controversies, while discernibly rooted in the early gospel tradition and in Luke’s own social situation, is fundamentally an aspect of the evangelist’s central Christological vision.
