Macnamara, Luke2025-10-082025-10-082025The Biblical Annals, 2025, T. 15, nr 2, s. 253-272.2083-22222451-2168https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/37296Artykuł w języku angielskim.Scholars have overlooked the significance of Zacchaeus’ movements in Luke 19:1–10. They are generally understood as a means of circumventing the crowd, a demonstration of his eagerness, an expression of his desire to see Jesus from a safe distance, or as a humorous scene. However, the captivating details of his ascent and descent from the tree call for a more satisfying explanation. The characterisation of the rich toll collector carries pejorative overtones but afterwards he is counted among the lost who are saved. This transformation occurs through his participation in Jesus’ paschal mystery as represented by his climbing and coming down the tree.enCC-BY - Uznanie autorstwaZacchaeusἀναβαίνωκαταβαίνωsycamorePaschal MysteryCharitonBibleNew Testamentbiblical studiesexegesisbiblical exegesistheologybiblical theologyZacchaeus’ encounter with JesusJesus Christencounterexegetical analysisZacheuszsykomoraMisterium PaschalneBibliaPismo ŚwięteNowy Testamentbiblistykaegzegezaegzegeza biblijnateologiateologia biblijnaspotkanie Zacheusza z JezusemJezus Chrystusspotkanieanaliza egzegetycznaZacchaeus’ Encounter with Jesus (Luke 19:1–10): An Embodiment of the Paschal MysteryArticle
