Luke-Acts: New Perspectives from the Society of Biblical Literature Seminar, edited by Charles Talbert, is a collection of 12 essays exploring Luke-Acts through modern literary lenses, focusing on genre (biography/history), promise-fulfillment, Jewish-Christian relations, Paul's role, and the ending of Acts, challenging older views with new insights on Luke's artistry and theological aims for Christian faith. The book groups articles into introductory, thematic, and exegetical studies, revealing Luke-Acts as a unified, complex work with deep roots in Greco-Roman and biblical traditions. The volume showcases a shift in Luke studies, integrating literary theory with traditional historical-critical methods, providing a richer, more nuanced understanding of Luke's literary and theological goals for his Christian audience.
