ANCIENT SLAVERY AS AN INTERPRETATIVE CONTEXT FOR THE NEW TESTAMENT SERVANT PARABLES WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE UNJUST STEWARD (LUKE 16:1-8).
The article argues that information about ancient slavery can provide an illuminating interpretive context for the slave parables seen in the Gospel passage of Luke 16:1-8. Topics addressed include discussion of evidence from historical data about ancient slaves and slavery, Greco-Roman literary traditions in which slaves figure as characters, and specific exegesis of the parable of the unjust steward in Luke.
