Critical Studies in St. Luke's Gospel

Critical Studies in St. Luke's Gospel: Its Demonology and Ebionitism is a scholarly work by Colin Campbell, first published in 1891. The book is a detailed analysis of the Gospel of Luke, with a particular focus on the portrayal of demons and the influence of Ebionitism on the text. Campbell examines the language, structure, and themes of Luke's Gospel, drawing on a range of sources including ancient texts and contemporary scholarship. He argues that the Gospel's demonology reflects a belief in the reality of demonic possession and the power of Jesus to cast out demons. In addition, Campbell explores the influence of Ebionitism on Luke's Gospel. Ebionites were a Jewish-Christian sect that rejected Pauline Christianity and believed in the continued observance of Jewish law. Campbell suggests that Luke's Gospel may have been written with an Ebionite audience in mind, and that the text reflects this community's beliefs and practices. Overall, Critical Studies in St. Luke's Gospel: Its Demonology and Ebionitism provides a detailed and insightful analysis of one of the most important texts in the Christian tradition. It will be of interest to scholars of biblical studies, theology, and religious history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
