요약 : Most previous treatments of the four mag3i&d12; a -miracle conflicts in Acts (8:4--25 13:4--12 16:16--18 19:8--20) do not adequately account for the socially constructed nature of the Greco-Roman concept of mag3i&d12; a and also fail to make an adequate distinction between modern Western concepts of magic and the ancient Greco-Roman concept of mag3i&d12; a . Employing a social-scientific-critical method, this dissertation engages in a narrative-focused analysis of these four texts and other relevant texts from Acts to understand better the socio-cultural elements in Acts' presentation of both miracle-working characters and their rival wonder-working characters, whom Acts primarily presents as popular ma&d12;gov . My social-scientific-critical approach primarily depends upon the historical theory of Kimberly Stratton, the theories of the social-scientific study of magic, and the social-scientific study of social deviance (particularly the symbolic interactionist approach to deviance). For Greco-Roman Gentile readers in the regions stretching form Achaia to Asia Minor during the late first to early second centuries, the competitions between miracle-workers and popular ma&d12;gov in the four mag3i&d12; a -miracle conflicts in Acts would function as more than mere warnings against the syncretizing of the Christ-movement with mag3i&d12; a or the recounting of historical tales of popular ma&d12;gov who competed against the early Christ-following missionaries; instead, these four episodes contribute significantly to Acts development of a social identity for the relatively undefined social role of Christ-following miracle-worker. This miracle-worker social identity would not only function as a means of countering accusations of popular mag3i&d12; a directed at the Christ-movement but might also serve as a means by which a Christ-following reader of Acts may distinguish between legitimate wonder-workers (that is, miracle-workers) and illegitimate wonder-workers (that is, popular ma&d12;gov ).
