110 Evans, 70, “Luke wishes to make it clear that Jesus’ ministry begins in the power of the Spirit as he taught in their synagogues (see 1:35; 3:22; 4:1), which parallels the inauguration of the apostolic preaching and teaching in Acts 2.”
111 Ibid., 72, “What makes all of this preaching so ‘unacceptable’ is that the people of Jesus’ time expected Messiah to come and destroy Israel’s enemies, not minister to them.”

114 Evans, 169, “Whereas the Twelve may represent the reconstitution of the twelve tribes of Israel, the Seventy may represent the seventy Gentile nations of the world, founded by the sons of Noah after the flood . . .”
115 Fred Jonkman, “The Missionary Methods of the Apostle Paul,” http://www.thirdmill.org/paul2/missionary_methods.asp (Oct. 11, 2001) 1, “It was Paul’s mission activities (Acts 13–28) that contributed remarkably towards the Christian church’s move from the limited sphere of Judaism to the broader frame of the Gentile world. It then becomes, for all religious history, a preeminent model for missionary outreach.”
116 Evans, 161, Luke says that Jesus “resolutely set His face to go to Jerusalem.” (Luke 9: 51) This has several Old Testament parallels. One of the most obvious is Ezekiel 21:2, “Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and speak against the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel.” Moessner sees this final journey as more of a type of a new Exodus. “Luke will tell his readers that as Jesus progresses through the “‘towns and villages of Israel, teaching in their streets”’ (13:22) the crowds continue to swell around him until these ‘“myriads”’ become a ‘“multitude of crowds”’ (11:29; 12:1; 14:25). As the prophet like Moses Jesus gathers all Israel on their Exodus to Jerusalem,” David P. Moessner, ‘“The Christ Must Suffer’: New Light on the Jesus-Peter, Stephen, Paul Parallels in Luke-Acts,” Novum Testamentum 28 (1986) 239.
117 Arrington, 209, “The solemn prophetic admonitions were understood by Paul to be the definite guidance of the Holy Spirit to go to Jerusalem, the place where the purpose of God would be carried out.
118 Luke records that after Paul was seized by the mob, “they dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were shut.” Bruce sees significance in the shutting of the temple doors. “For Luke himself, this may have been the moment when the Jerusalem temple ceased to fill the honorable role hitherto ascribed to it in his two-fold history. The exclusion of God’s message and messenger from the house once called by his name sealed its doom: it was now ripe for the destruction which Jesus had predicted for it many years before (Luke 21:6),” The Book of the Acts, 410.

124 Darrell L. Bock, Luke, The NIV Application Commentary (Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1996) 42, “Theophilius was probably a new believer, who as a Gentile found himself in what had started out as a Jewish movement.” See also, Marshall, The Acts of the Apostles, 56, “Theophilus was probably already a Christian, and Luke wrote his book to help him and others like him to have a reliable account of the beginnings of Christianity.”
125 Morris, 66.
126 Hiebert, 130, “While writing for the personal benefit of Theophilus (Luke 1:4), Luke clearly intended for his work to have a much wider circulation.”
127 Ibid., 132, He goes on to say that Luke’s “ultimate aim is to convey these truths to Gentile readers and to awaken and deepen their faith in Jesus as the God-sent Savior for all mankind.”

131 Conzleman, 132, “As the End is still far away, the adjustment to a short time of waiting is replaced by a ‘Christian life’ of long duration, which requires ethical regulation and is no longer dependent upon a definite termination.”
