Where it came from
Published in 1984 by Orbis Books, this theological study emerged during a period of intense scholarly interest in the intersection of liberation theology and New Testament ethics. Josephine Massyngberde Ford, a prolific scripture scholar, sought to reconcile the apparent contradictions between Jesus’s commands to love one's enemies and the seemingly violent imagery found within Lukan narrative structures.
The book is noted for its rigorous exegetical approach to the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles. Ford challenges traditional readings of Lukan pacifism, arguing that the author presents a complex, multi-layered view of conflict. Upon its release, it was regarded as a significant contribution to the broader academic discourse on Christian non-violence and the socio-political context of the early church.
