  • Beschreibung: <jats:p> The phrase “good news to the poor” summarizes Jesus’ mission in Luke’s Gospel, with issues of poverty and wealth deeply implicated in issues of belonging, power, and social privilege, in addition to more narrowly defined economic concerns. Following Jesus raises pressing questions concerning possessions, with Luke calling for forms of distribution in which the needy receive care and friendship and the wealthy give without expectation of return. </jats:p>
