Description

This scholarly study reinterprets the Lukan Parable of the Talents (Lk 19.11-28) as a narrative exploring the use and abuse of power, challenging conventional theological readings. The author argues that the parable illuminates the experiences of those who face adverse consequences when resisting unjust power structures, establishing connections between this teaching and other pivotal moments in Luke's Gospel including the arrest of John the Baptist by Herod and the crucifixion of Jesus. By tracing patterns of suppression throughout the Lukan narrative, this work demonstrates how the Parable of the Pounds functions as a theological paradigm for understanding resistance to oppressive systems and their costs. Part of the Library of New Testament Studies series, this volume combines feminist theological perspective with careful biblical exegesis to offer fresh insights into one of Jesus' most debated parables and its implications for contemporary discussions of power, justice and religious authority.
