RT Article T1 Tò pniktón als buitenbeentje: Lucas' semantische vernieuwing in dienst van gemeenschap JF Kerk en theologie VO 77 IS 1 SP 30 OP 45 A1 Jong, Ron de 1960-2022 LA Dutch YR 2026 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1966855621 AB This article examines the meaning and function of the prohibition on τὸ πνικτόν in the apostolic decree. Four explanations and backgrounds for this prohibition on "the choked" are critically discussed. The subsequent semantic investigation of πνίγω κ.τ.λ. shows that Luke semantically renews this word. Against the background of Acts 15, this prohibition appears to be theologically and socio-culturally charged and to function as a means of mutual fellowship.
