The useful part

The first of the three scenes that form part of this section deals with the healing of Peter's mother-in-law. Since in Luke this healing takes place before the call of the first disciples, he does not mention Andrew, James and John as Mark does (Mk 1,29). He also probably uses this healing to prepare for the call of Peter, which he narrates in 5,1-11.

How it works

  • In the second scene, Luke depicts a Jesus who would heal people at all times of the day or night.
  • While the demons use the title "Son of God" to identify Jesus, Luke himself informs the readers that Jesus is the Messiah, the Christ.
  • In the third and final scene of this section, Luke portrays a Jesus who would find time to commune with his Father.
  • He portrays a man of action and yet a man of prayer, though he does not explicitly state here that Jesus prayed.
