| Summary: | Since Neyrey's important study on Jesus' emotional state in Luke's garden scene, many scholars have subsequently viewed the redactions as stemming, in part, from concern over negative Stoic passions (πάθη). The present author follows a similar trajectory but goes on to show that Luke's removal of Jesus' affective episode comports with a popularized misunderstanding of Stoic pathology but not with well-established and current Stoic teachings on pre-emotions (προπάθειαι). The author further demonstrates how Stoic sources allow for and even require early onset emotive reactions that do not threaten a sage's moral integrity and how Luke, unlike Matthew, over-corrects his source material in an unnecessary way. |
