This study refutes the allegation that Luke showed no systematic thought about the significance of Jesus' death. Doble focuses on the unique features of Luke's death scene and extends the results into the account of Jesus' final days; he demonstrates how specific words and patterns from Wisdom shape and fill the evangelist's retelling. Luke wanted his readers to understand that what had happened to Jesus was not a humiliating rejection but in accord with scripture's presentation of God's plan for salvation.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"This is an excellent and most welcome study.... D[oble] deserves high marks for making a very strong case that we should let Luke be Luke and should not devalue his theology of the cross because it is not Pauline." Robert J. Karris, The Catholic Biblical Quarterly
"...a worthwhile reference point." Richard S. Ascough, Toronto Journal of Theology
