Episode Synopsis

In this “Theology Unpacked” episode, Dr John Moffatt SJ presents the Gospel of Luke presents a sophisticated narrative that subtly embeds prophetic references, highlighting the continuity of salvation history from the Tanach (Tanakh) to the Christian era. The Gospel of Luke emphasises the importance of the faithful 'people' who recognise God’s work in Jesus, contrasting them with resistant religious elites. Central themes include justice for the oppressed, the coming of God's kingdom, and a great reversal that uplifts the lowly.📧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for regular updates⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, including follow-up study days!📚 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Explore the wide range of reading materials⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ in the Heythrop Library🤓 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join online or in-person courses⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ at the London Jesuit CentreIf you find our podcasts helpful, please consider ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donating to the London Jesuit Centre⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
