Most English translations of the story of the Star of Bethlehem either say explicitly or seem to imply that Herod learns from the magi the point in time at which the star appeared. This translation reflects an unusual understanding of two words in the Greek text, as well as raising the question why he killed children aged over a range of two years if he knew the exact age of the baby. These problems have been raised in the critical literature, yet many modern versions continue to offer a grammatically and logically strange interpretation. This article will argue that this interpretation is based on the assumption of a Hellenistic genethliac astrological background for the text, and that the perceived need for this common translation disappears if a Babylonian astrological background is assumed.

It is widely granted that in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Princeton Theological Seminary had come to be recognized as an international bastion of evangelical and Reformed orthodoxy. Students, drawn to Princeton from across the USA and many points across the globe, returned home to teach and preach the Christian faith as Princeton had relayed it to them. Since the denominationally-mandated reorganization of this seminary in 1929, conservative evangelicals have circulated a narrative describing the seminary as undergoing a ‘death’ in that year. This essay seeks to show both that the theological reorientation of this seminary was much more gradual than this now-customary narrative would allow, and that the graduates of this seminary from both before and after 1929 went on exercising a wide national and international evangelical leadership for decades beyond the reorganization.

From the early centuries of the church, there has been much discussion on how best to describe Jesus’s resurrection and the expected eschatological resurrection (particularly of believers). One popular way of describing resurrection has been as ‘physical’, which in some ways corresponds with the ancient description of the resurrection ‘of the flesh’. Critics of this approach have, in fact, treated these descriptions as synonymous and have argued that ‘physical’ is not an apt adjective for describing Jesus’s or the eschatological resurrection. I argue here, particularly by reference to 1 Cor. 15, that it remains appropriate to refer to resurrection according to the Bible as ‘physical’, not as ‘bodily, but not physical’, and that it is the critics who have overcomplicated the term by making it entail what it does not entail and have thus provided obfuscation where they claimed to provide clarification.

This essay reviews I. Howard Marshall’s chapter on salvation as the core theological theme of Luke-Acts in Luke: Historian and Theologian. He contends for the idea of salvation being rooted in historical events and challenged Hans Conzelmann’s idea of the delay of the parousia. Jesus as Saviour and salvation in its broadest terms are at the center of Luke’s concerns. An assessment follows. Many have joined Marshall since in contending for a historically rooted portrait of the early church’s message. The idea of Jesus as Messiah-Lord may be a better central term for Luke’s Christology than Saviour. The theme of salvation as tied to reconciliation has brought focus to Luke’s emphasis on salvation. Also traced is the central role of geographical progression to point to the theme of Gentiles’ inclusion, as well as Paul’s career. The legacy of Marshall’s work still lives fifty years after this work.

I. Howard Marshall broke fresh ground with his Luke: Historian and Theologian in 1970 when the reigning critical methodology was a form of redaction criticism that largely assumed that theology and history were mutually exclusive. Not only did Marshall contest this assumption but he stressed that a historian was as good as his sources, and Luke had good ones. A half-century later, scholarship has significantly progressed, with Marshall’s views having left an important legacy. Multiple critical tools may be combined. Theology and history can work in tandem. Redaction criticism need not be antithetical to the historical reliability of a Gospel.
1970年，霍华德·马歇尔(Howard Marshall)的《路加福音:历史学家和神学家》(Luke: historical and Theologian)开辟了新天地，当时主流的批评方法是一种修订批评形式，在很大程度上认为神学和历史是相互排斥的。马歇尔不仅对这种假设提出了质疑，而且强调历史学家的资料来源和他的资料来源一样好，而路加有很好的资料来源。半个世纪后，学术有了显著的进步，马歇尔的观点留下了重要的遗产。多个关键工具可以组合在一起。神学和历史可以协同工作。修订批评不必与福音书的历史可靠性对立。
