4 | Liam Carlton-Jones - Eschatology and Political Theology in Luke-Acts
Welcome to the Divinity Divulged podcast! The first podcast
series from the Faculty of Divinity at the University of Cambridge. In each episode we’ll be taking a look at one of the fascinating research projects happening within the Faculty through conversations with the researcher and an
expert guest working in their field. Our discussions are aimed at all of those studying or exploring religious studies across all levels, and you can find details on how this episode relates to A Level and Scottish Highers Specifications as well as a glossary below.
For this episode we are joined by Liam Carlton-Jones, PhD
student in the Faculty of Divinity here at Cambridge, as we talk through Liam’s research which examines the relationship between eschatology and political
theology in the New Testament books of Luke-Acts. Offering us their expertise is Dr Kylie Crabbe, Associate Professor of Biblical and Early Christian Studies in the Institute for Religion and Critical Inquiry at the Australian Catholic University.
This time round, Liam guides us through Jewish end time
themes, the question of Luke as a challenger to authority, conversation partners and imperial gossip.
We dearly hope you enjoy!
