Abstract
This article approaches the Lukan travel narrative (Luke 9:51-19:27) from the perspective of ancient travel, first exploring the questions of why, if and how this section is designated as a travel narrative and then reflecting on the topic of education as it connects to the narrative strategy of Luke. The why is explored in relation to research history, that despite different aspects inevitably returns to the topic of travel in the section, the if in comparison to contemporary literature where travel is a predominant topic across genres and the how in light of the sources that the Gospel of Luke builds upon, predominantly the δς theme from the Gospel of Mark and the Septuagint. Finally, attention is given to the connection between travel and education in contemporary literature, where the identity of educated persons, πεπαιδευμε /νοι, are bound up with travel in that travel is a mode of and prerequisite for education. The educational portrait of Paul in Acts as educated has been highlighted in recent scholarship, where travel plays an important part, yet the portrait of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke as a teacher and prophet is also supported through the travel narrative. Instead of depicting Jesus' travel to Jerusalem as a straightforward journey, Luke expands his influence geographically and includes teaching material that builds up the image of Jesus as a πεπαιδευμενος. This educational aspect serves at least two purposes, to establish his authority and to serve as an exemplum for early Christians who themselves travel and teach.
