Description
Summary:The passage of Acts 16:6-10 is analyzed according to the method of Narrative Criticism. The insistence on the Spirit shows that Paul and his companions are guided by God; but the narrator does not make explicit how. The vision of the Macedonian points the way. But when the will of God is made clear, there is a shift from the narrator’s voice to the characters’ voice and the account gives access to the perception of God filtered by their awareness. It follows that the believing awareness of the implied reader is called for.\n4207 Ac 16,6-10 est étudié selon la méthode de la critique narrative. L’insistence sur l’Esprit montre que Paul et ses compagnons sont guidés par Dieu; toutefois, le narrateur ne précise pas comment. La vision du Macédonien indique comment. Une fois la volonté de Dieu explicitée, il y a un changement de la voix du narrateur vers celle des personages, et le récit donne une image de Dieu selon leur proper perpective. Cela implique ensuite que la conscience croyante du lecteur soit sollicitée.\n4207 \n4207
