[B-Greek] Luke 9:31

There is definitely an anti-Jerusalem realist strain in Luke, which balances
his idealist prophetic picture of the holy city.  If understood in that
context, the association of EXODON with IEROUSALHM would indicate more than
a mere departure.  It would also carry the idea that IEROUSALHM was a place
of bondage which required an EXODON.  The subsequent travel narrative is
therefore set in a dual light.  One of idealistic pilgrimage, and another of
realistic bondage.

Back to lurking.

Yours sincerely,
Rev. Matthew Winzer
