-
"To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
-
That's as we'll see that's another theme of Luke.
-
He's quoting it from scripture but then he incorporates it.
-
For example, there will be a time later
-
where we'll see that at one point Jesus condemns Jerusalem
-
because "They did not recognize the time of their visitation."
-
Jesus' being there on earth represents this special time.
-
It's a focus of history on one point of time.
-
Again, Jesus in his first sermon quotes this
-
"Acceptable year of the Lord" As being his year;
-
it's the Jesus year in Judea.
-
Then another theme that you see here is what happens to Jesus.
