SummaryTable of Contents
In this original and thought-provoking study, Willi Braun draws both on social and literary evidence regarding the Greco-Roman elite banquet scene and on ancient prescribed methods of rhetorical composition to argue that the Pharisaic dinner episode in Luke 14 is a skillfully crafted rhetorical unit in which Jesus presents an argument for Luke's vision of a Christian society. His analysis underscores the way in which gospel writers manipulated the inherited Jesus traditions for the purposes of ideological and social formation of Christian communities.

An original and thought-provoking analysis of the Pharisaic dinner episode in Luke 14.
1. Introduction: how to read Luke 14?
2. Assumptions and preliminary reading
3. Jesus as a healer of craving desire (14:1-6)
4. Uncommon 'symposium rules' (14:7-11, 12-14)
5. The big dinner (14:15-24): aspects of Lukan performance
6. The conversion of a wealthy householder: 7. Forms, genres and composition
8. Composition as argumentation: the rhetoric of Luke 14
9. Toward closure (and openings).
