초록/해제  
요약 : This dissertation offers a narrative ethical reading of the portrayals of the early community of believers in Acts 2:41-47 and 4:32-35. Interpreting these passages in the narrative context of Luke-Acts, the study argues that the believers are practicing a distinctive form of Greco-Roman friendship in accordance with God's community-creating activity in their midst. Further, echoing the Lukan themes of proclamation, hospitality, and the sharing of possessions, these narrative summaries are charged with the potential to shape the moral imaginations and ethical lives of those who read them.
초록/해제  
요약 : The dissertation opens with an introduction in which the thesis is formulated as a response to questions about the ability of narratives to impact the moral experiences of readers. The first chapter follows with a summary of twentieth-century literary and ethical interpretations of Acts 2:41-47 and 4:32-35. The chapter concludes with an articulation of a narrative ethical method that combines elements of narrative criticism and theology with contemporary insights into ethical interpretations of narratives.
초록/해제  
요약 : The second chapter examines the Greco-Roman friendship maxims "friends have all things in common," and "friends are of one soul." After summarizing Aristotle's understanding of friendship in the Nichomachean Ethics, the study evaluates how distinctive literary contexts impact the use of these maxims in works by Plutarch, Diogenes Laertius, and Iamblichus.
초록/해제  
요약 : Following a discussion of summary, scene, and repetition in narrative analysis, the third chapter offers an interpretation of Acts 2:41-47 that describes the distinctively Lukan adaptation of the friendship maxim to its preceding context. In addition to describing the friendship practices of the community, the reading highlights God's role and the believers' joy as important for ethical interpretation.
초록/해제  
요약 : The fourth chapter continues with an interpretation of Acts 4:32-35, evaluating the apostles' role in the community, and discovering implications of the believers' friendship for the depictions of Barnabas, and Ananias and Sapphira (4:36-5:11). The dissertation concludes with a summary of findings and implications for further study.
