Item The Call of Simon Peter in Luke 5:1-11: A Lukan Invention?Szkredka, Sławomir (Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski Jana Pawła II, 2018)Recent studies on the role of the eyewitnesses in the formation of the Gospel tradition argue for the singular importance of the original followers of Jesus. Luke himself might reflect their unique standing with his stated reliance on “the eyewitnesses and the servants of the word” (1:2). Still, Luke’s expansion of the Markan call of Peter seems, to many modern scholars at least, precisely that – a literary reworking of the original Markan story. Luke thus appears to resort to literary fiction to confirm the authority of those who guarantee the non-fictional character of his narrative. The conflicting nature of this operation needs to be reexamined. As this article argues, the recent studies on the Lake of Galilee, Simon Peter, and the role of the eyewitnesses offer enough evidence to suggest that in composing the story of the call of Peter, Luke relied on a source that depicted the call in connection with the fishing miracle. Secondly, existence of such a tradition opens new possibilities for reconstructing the past so differently narrativized by Luke and Mark.Item Ks. Wojciech Pikor – Ks.

The ambiguity should be considered as a poetic trope.Item Andreas J. Köstenberger – Benjamin L. Merkle – Robert L. Plummer, Going Deeper with New Testament Greek.

Diagnoza sytuacji współczesnych Jezusowi czy kondycji człowieka?Mielcarek, Krzysztof W. (Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski Jana Pawła II, 2018)The negative phrase: “the brood of vipers” has no equivalent in the OT, neither it is present in the extra-biblical writings. The first evangelist is the one who uses the epithet most often. However, Luke does use it as well (Lk 3:7). The paper is a study of narrative strategies of both Gospel-writers within the context of the OT and the rabbinic literature in order to identify one of the important narrative threads of the third Gospel. Instead of stigmatizing the particular faction of the Israel’s religious society, Luke employs the primordial Christian tradition to stress sinfulness of human nature, which in the past resulted in rejecting the good news of Jesus.Item Georg.

Część 2: Motywy obecności dwojga zwierząt w tekście MateuszaKubiś, Adam (1976- ) (Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski Jana Pawła II, 2018)The article deals with one of the problematic issues found in the Matthean entry narrative (21:1-11), namely the reason(s) for introducing two animals into the account. The article provides an extensive discussion of the possible reasons for the biblical authors configuring the narrative in this way, presenting various allegorical, redactional, naturalistic, and intertextual interpretations. The article proposes that the most likely reason for introducing two animals into the narrative is simply to accurately reflect a real historical event – which in fact involved two donkeys. It is also argued that Matthew, as a theologian, was equally interested in demonstrating the fulfillment of Zec 9:9. Further, his narrative was also imbued with allusions to Mosaic as well as Davidic and Solomonic typologies.
