| Summary: | The article deals with two topics that are neglected in the Gospel of Luke: miracles and praise. In Luke 5 - 18, the acts of praise appear almost always in the miracle stories and most frequently in the mouth of the crowd - four times. These acclamations reveal the gradual recognition of Jesus’ identity. The crowd’s perception of Jesus as a miracle worker (5.26) and prophet (7.16) at the beginning has changed to seeing in him the Son of David and Messiah (18.38, 39, 43). This progression of the Jewish crowd in understanding Jesus’ identity is the thesis of this article. |
