Though most readers of the Gospel of Luke are familiar with Jesus’s well-known statement about “taking up a sword” (Luke 22:49), Gospel also references other sword-violence text segments. The first reference occurs at Jesus’s birth (Luke 2:34, 35), and the last ends with Jesus’s arrest (Luke 22:47–53). This expository article focuses upon reading Luke’s sword-violence passages with a wholistic lens that includes the theological, cultural, and social cues within the text. In this integrated reading approach, one captures the Lukan depiction of various dimensions of violence via a sword and the implicit and explicit challenge to resist sword-violence as the way for followers of Jesus.

Different languages allow different kinds of information to be left implicit and require different kinds of information to be made explicit. So when translating from one language to another, the way we handle implicit and explicit information is a major issue. This article illustrates the treatment of such information in translating directionals, pronouns, verbal tense, word meanings, chains of reference, and passives.

Peace and judgement in the gospel according to Luke. Quite rightly Luke is called an evangelist of peace and non-violence. It is recognised in several studies that peace, nonviolence and love for the enemy are integral parts of the message of the Lucan Jesus. Yet this statement cannot be made without criticism. In the gospel of Luke there are many texts in which violence is present, which is incongruent with the message of peace and non-violence. Sometimes there is even violence that is excessive. In many of these texts violence has to do with vengeance in the judgement. In some recent studies the relation of the peace-message of Jesus and the retribution in the judgement is discussed. In this article we first examine the problem of violence in Luke’s gospel with the help of Luke 19:9–27. In the vision of Luke the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE is a consequence of the refusal to accept the message of Jesus. To understand this it is necessary to place the fall of Jerusalem in the eschatological timetable of Luke. We see here a certain equivalence between the situation of the contemporaries of Jesus within the gospel and the situation of the intended readers in the last quarter of the first century CE. Moreover we propose to reverse the way the question is put. We do not have to enlighten how it is possible that after the peace-message of Jesus there will be vengeance in the judgement. First there is the announcement of the judgement. After that a delay is announced for the contemporaries of Jesus as well as for the intended readers of Luke’s gospel: a year of the Lord’s favour. This delay gives room for repentance.(Full text article to follow)

Abstract During the past few years, numerous studies have been done in self-assembly. Among most of these studies, Molecular Dynamic Simulation is widely used to construct the experiment model. This work firstly introduced three practical applications of MD simulation in self-assembly. Then, two main kinds of simulation are discussed including all-atom simulation and coarse-grained simulation, together with the way of thoughts before the simulation start. It is found that researchers always start with the whole analysis of the substances that need to be studied. It helps to confirm the appropriate model that can apply in the simulation naturally. Besides, depended on the principles that need to be studied, the way of establishing the simulation system varies, ranging from separation experiment in both types of simulation to the change of essential parameters. Furthermore, the adoption of L-J potential in MD simulation proves to be a wise option on account of its convenient and simple model. It is remarkable that, considering some small details like the differences between implicit and explicit solution, classical Martini force field is replaced by Dry Martini force field.

Honor And Shame

Abstract: The number of female figures who appear in Luke's gospel behind a social context that places women in a lower position than men, raises questions about the position of women in Luke's gospel. This article aims to explore the woman in Luke's gospel through the story of Elizabeth. Because the issue of women's position related to social status, the analysis in this study will be based on the perspective of honor and shame with symbolic methods in cultural anthropology as the methodology. The results of this analysis show a positive and significant position for women in the Gospel of Luke. This is shown through the symbols of honor embedded in Elizabeth, as well as her significant and prominent role. Even Elizabeth is shown to be in a much more positive position than her husband, Zacharias. Elizabeth shows that women, like men, can play an important role as patrons, witnesses, and prophets. The way Luke positions Elizabeth indicates that there is an elevation of honor for women to an equal position with men.   Keywords: honor and shame, cultural anthropology, Elizabeth, women’s position, the Gospel of Luke   Abstrak: Banyaknya tokoh perempuan yang dimunculkan di Injil Lukas di balik konteks sosial yang menempatkan perempuan pada posisi yang lebih rendah daripada laki-laki, menimbulkan pertanyaan mengenai posisi perempuan dalam Injil Lukas. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi posisi perempuan dalam Injil Lukas melalui kisah Elisabet. Mengingat isu tentang posisi perempuan berhubungan dengan status sosial, maka analisis dalam penelitian ini akan didasarkan pada perspektif honor and shame dengan metode simbolik dalam antropologi budaya sebagai metodologinya. Hasil dari analisis ini memperlihatkan posisi yang positif dan signifikan bagi perempuan dalam Injil Lukas. Hal ini diperlihatkan melalui simbol-simbol kehormatan yang disematkan kepada Elisabet, serta perannya yang terlihat signifikan dan menonjol. Bahkan Elisabet diperlihatkan pada posisi yang jauh lebih positif daripada Zakharia, suaminya. Elisabet memperlihatkan bahwa perempuan, seperti juga laki-laki, dapat berperan penting sebagai patron, saksi, dan penyampai nubuat. Cara Lukas memosisikan Elisabet ini mengindikasikan adanya pengangkatan kehormatan perempuan pada posisi yang setara dengan laki-laki.     Kata-kata Kunci: honor and shame, antropologi budaya, Elisabet, posisi perempuan, Injil Lukas.

In practice, sports often play a major role in shaping the identity of Catholic schools. Theorists consider how to better integrate religious faith into sports programs. We argue that it is also imperative to investigate how the schools' catholicity influences educator-coaches experiences of sport. Based upon analysis of a phenomenological research project in Edmonton, Canada, our study uncovered factors of lift (i.e., feeling part of something bigger, mentor-coaches as doers of the Word, and communal or relational elements) and drag (i.e., treatment of non-Catholics, seeking an authentic faith, and a lack of reflection on the integration of sport and faith). From these findings, we highlight how factors of lift and drag should effect the way Catholic schools shape their sports programs' religious identity: the importance of the faith community, the value of implicit and explicit signs of faith in secular times, the need for deeper reflection, and possibilities for that reflection.

Unconscious or, implicit learning (IL) is often described as being instrumental to human social functioning. However, most of the available IL tasks have limited external validity; they use surface stimuli that are not socially relevant. Additionally, the way in which participants exchange information within most of the available tasks departs from the way in which information is being exchanged in real-life social situations. In this study, we report the validation of a novel task, inspired from Broadbent et al. (1984), assessing the implicit and explicit learning of socio-emotional information in a dynamic environment. Participants (N=115) interacted with an animated virtual avatar that displayed different levels of emotional facial expressions. Their task was to regulate the avatar’s facial expression to a specified level. Unknown to them, the relationship between their inputs and the avatar’s state was mediated by an abstract rule. Results indicate that learning occurred in the task, as participants gradually increased their ability to bring the avatar in the target state. We found evidence for both explicit (consciously knowing the appropriate response) and implicit (knowing the correct responses even when based on subjectively defined unconscious mental states) knowledge acquisition. This is one of the first studies to propose a task for studying the role of IL in interactive social situations. Implications for future research are discussed.

It is my contention, discussed in a general way elsewhere, that the entire collection of material gathered in the New Testament, including the Gospel of Luke, was written by Judaic authors. Researches into targumic and Aramaic foundations of New Testament material will increasingly have significant influence upon our understanding of this factor in early Christianity. It will also play an important role in ascertaining the background to liturgical development and interrelationships. New Testament material was designed for congregations including both persons of Judaic faith, who accepted a form of Christology but remained observant of more or less Judaism, and of persons who came into the new movement called ‘The Way’ from the pagan world. In the latter instance, those who joined the new movement were already sebomenoi, and therefore in many ways were like the former group. But many others, perhaps the vast majority in both the eastern and European diaspora were coming into contact with Judaism, albeit a Christianized Judaism, for the first time.

The Christian community or as it is more commonly termed ‘the Church’ is usually thought of as coming into existence after the death and resurrection of Jesus. The purpose of this essay is to argue that, at least for Luke, the Church comes into existence during the ministry of Jesus. In Luke's presentation of the disciples and in his discussion on discipleship it is his intent to set before his readers a model Christian community. The disciples in the third Gospel are not meant to prefigure the Church nor to represent the Church in embryo: they are the Church, albeit in idealised form. This conclusion is based on a study of the way Luke uses and adapts traditions about the disciples in his Gospel. But before we turn to this evidence three possible objections to our thesis must be considered.
