Introduction
David E. Aune
Hans Kvalbein’s academic career centered in the Norwegian School of Theology(Det teologiske Menighetsfakultet) in Oslo, beginning as a student who gradu-ated in 1966 and then as a member of the faculty, first as an assistant professor(1976) and then as a professor of New Testament from 1985 until his retire-ment in 2011. While Hans had many academic and theological interests overthe years, one of his central concerns was the mission of the church both inthe New Testament and in the modern world. When Reidar Hvalvik and I be-gan discussing the possibility of assembling a collection of essays in memoryof Hans about two years ago (in 2015), it seemed eminently appropriate to fo-cus on the subject which became the title of this volume: “The Church and ItsMission in the New Testament and Early Christianity.”
The present volume consists of fifteen essays by colleagues and friends ofHans Kvalbein focusing on various aspects of the theme of the church and mis-sion in the New Testament and early Christianity as well as a survey of HansKvalbein’s academic career and scholarship and a bibliography of his booksand articles. The organization of the volume follows the main theme throughthe Gospels, Acts, Paul, Later New Testament Writings and Early Christian-ity. Many of the contributors interact with Kvalbein’s views on aspects of themission of the early church. In the remainder of this introductory essay, I willprovide succinct summaries of the various contributions organized under eachof the five main headings of the volume.
The Gospels
Jostein Ådna has contributed an essay on “The Mission to Israel and the Na-tions: The Understanding of Mission in the Gospel of Matthew Reconsidered.”This essay is based on issues discussed in a volume edited by Ådna and Kvalbeinthat was published in 2000: The Mission of the Early Church to Jews and Gentiles.The author argues that despite the apparent tension in the Gospel of Matthewbetween the mission to Israel (Matt 10:6; 15:24) and mission to the Gentiles(Matt 28:18–20), the author has not abandoned the mission to Israel, but ratherjuxtaposes the two missions. For Ådna, the most radical solution to the tensionbetween Matt 10:5–6 and 28:18–20 is to read Matthew as a narrative in whichIsrael rejects the message of Jesus, leading to their rejection and abandonment,while the universal mission to the Gentiles replaces the failed mission to Israel.The author then turns to an article by Hans Kvalbein entitled “Has Matthew
4 David E. Aune
Abandoned the Jews?” which focuses on the significance of Matt 27:24–25 inwhich Pilate is presented as washing his hands and declaring himself innocentof the death of Jesus: “[T]hen the people as a whole answered, ‘His blood beon us and on our children!’” Kvalbein rejected the widespread interpretationthat this passage constituted a self-imposed curse, implying the rejection of Je-sus by the Jews. He goes on to argue that Pilate’s handwashing in no way affectsPilate’s responsibility for the death of Jesus. The Jewish people in Pilate’s court-yard are no more or less guilty for the death of Jesus than are the Romans. Ådnathen refers to an article by Ulrich Luz entitled “Has Matthew Abandoned theJews? A Response to Hans Kvalbein and Peter Stuhlmacher concerning Matt28:16–20,”1 in which Luz expresses his discomfort at being portrayed as repre-senting an anti-Jewish interpretation of Matthew. Luz now supports an inclusiveinterpretation of Matt 28:19, where the expression “all the nations” should beinterpreted as including both Jews and Gentiles.
The author then turns to the recent monograph of Matthias Konradt (Israel,Church, and the Gentiles in the Gospel of Matthew, 2014), who emphasizes thetension between Matt 10:16 and 28:19, asking how the initial focus of Jesus onIsrael can be reconciled with the eventual emphasis on the universal missionof the church. Konradt sees a correlation between the missions to Israel andthe nations and the Christology of Matthew. Jesus’ messianic mission to Israelis reflected in the Christological title Son of David. While the people generallyreact positively to Jesus, the religious leaders are presented as hostile to Jesus.However, the crowds in Jerusalem react negatively to Jesus. Parallel to Jesus’ ex-clusive ministry to Israel is a universal emphasis reflected in the titles “son ofAbraham” and “Son of God.” Ådna maintains that Konradt does not fully ap-preciate the function of the episode narrating the encounter of the risen Christwith the eleven disciples in Galilee (Matt 28:16–20). This episode functions asthe central symbolic event in Matthew involving the eschatological reconstitu-tion of Israel, the renewal of fellowship between Jesus and the disciples who hadforsaken him and a renewed commission to the disciples with the expanded goalof the mission to the Gentiles.
Ernst Baasland asks whether the important early Christian theme of love ofenemy plays any role in the early Christian mission in “Mission and Love ofEnemy: Matthew 5:43–44 and Luke 6:27–28, 35 (2 Clem. 13.3; Diogn. 5) in ItsGraeco-Roman Context.” Baasland asks how a message that made fixed bound-aries chaotic could be considered a strategy, since the Christian emphasis onlove of enemy both challenged and threatened the basic concepts of empire andnation widely held in the ancient world. In recent studies on identity-making

Introduction 5
and identity-markers there is always an awareness of the fact that all religionsand all cultures confront influences or events that threaten their identity. Af-ter the Jewish revolt in 66–70 CE, much of Israel was forced to live outside oftheir homeland, emphasized “the holy land” and were aware of being an electpeople, cherishing the promise of taking possession of the land promised byGod. The Christian emphasis on love of enemy challenged the Jewish concep-tion of identity, just as it challenged the concepts of empire and nation, both ofwhich presupposed a contrast between aliens and enemies. Does the universalmission reflected in Matt 28:19–20 extend or invalidate the role and identityof Israel? The emphasis on love of enemy in early Christianity broke throughfixed boundaries and disrupted otherwise stable social relationships. Baaslanddiscusses the key role that the theme of love of enemy plays in Jesus’ inauguralspeech inMatthew and Luke (i. e., the Sermon on theMount and the Sermon onthe Plain), focusing on Matt 5:43–44 and Luke 6:27–28, 35 in which Jesus com-mands his disciples to love their enemies. The author explores how this themeis treated within Matthew and Luke and how it is developed in various waysin the rest of the New Testament and in early Christian literature, such as inthe Didache and Justin Martyr. Baasland explores the variety of ways in whichthe theme of love of enemy is expressed, including some of the more importantsynonyms and antonyms of “love” found in Christian contexts. One importantsynonym of “love” is “pray,” found in Luke 6:27–28 (“Love your enemies . . . prayfor those who abuse you”), often expressed in exhortations to pray for rulers andfor enemies (e. g., Justin 1 Apol. 14–15). Another important synonym for “love”is “bless,” as in Luke 6:28: “Bless those who curse you.” The author then surveysa number of Greco-Roman texts which encourage the replacement of hatredwith love. Though Matt 5:44 and Luke 6:27 (“Love your enemies and pray forthose who persecute you”) are not quoted in the rest of the New Testament, thebasic pattern of thought is found in such passages and Rom 12: 9–21, interpret-ing the command in creative ways that do not restrict its meaning. The emphasison living at peace with all people is probably the most sophisticated interpreta-tion of “love of enemy” (cf. Rom 12:18). Another parallel emphasis is treatingyour enemy like a brother. Apart from the New Testament, many Greco-Romantexts emphasize the replacement of hatred with love, as much as possible. Theemphasis on love of enemy reflected a world view which implied a new notionof territory and nation and provided an indispensable framework for Chris-tian mission. In response to persecution, the Christian response was not one ofhostility, but rather love of enemy, or in the case of Jews, love of neighbour orbrotherly love. Love of enemies was thus a factor in early mission.
In “Peter on the Way to His Universal Mission in the Gospel of John,” Jo-hannes Beutler, SJ, argues that the mission of the disciples in the Gospel ofJohn is rooted in the mission of Jesus, who has been sent by the Father (John20:21). Among the disciples given a mission by Jesus, Peter plays a prominent
6 David E. Aune
role, particularly in the last chapter (John 21:1–14, 15–19). Peter as a mission-ary is a developing character in John and it is only in John 21, a late first centuryaddition to John that Peter’s calling by Jesus and the significance of his newname “stone” or “rock,” i. e., the foundation of the early church (John 1:40–42)is fully justified. Apart from the confession of Peter in John 6:68–69 (a lateraddition along with John 21), Peter does not appear until the account of the Pas-sion, Death and Resurrection. After Jesus washes the disciples’ feet (13:6–11), asymbolic act by Jesus that Peter does not understand, Peter appears beside theBeloved Disciple, who lies on the breast of Jesus (13:23) and (representing therest of the disciples) asks the Beloved Disciple who it is that will betray Jesus(13:24). In several additional scenes, Jesus predicts, despite Peter’s protestationsthat he will deny him three times (13:36–38) and at the arrest of Jesus Peter cutsoff the ear of the servant of the high priest, betraying his lack of understanding(18:10–11). During the trial of Jesus before the Jewish high priest (18:11–27),Peter is presented as explicitly opposed to Jesus and denies him three times, af-ter which he goes off stage until John 20. There, Peter and the Beloved Disciplerun to the tomb of Jesus to verify the story of the empty tomb told them byMaryMagdalene, Peter representing the disciples and the Beloved Disciple exhibitingdeep insight into the person of Jesus. To this point in John, there is little reasonto see Peter as a coming missionary. It is only in John 21 (which Beutler regardsas the product of a “rereading” of John) where the mission of Peter is empha-sized. Here the most important section is John 21:15–17, where Jesus asks Peterthree times if he loves him (an allusion to Peter’s threefold denial of Jesus), towhich Jesus replies either “feed my lambs” or “tend my sheep.” This threefoldaffirmation of Peter’s love for Jesus constitutes the restoration of Peter puttinghimself alongside the Good Shepherd (John 10) who preceded him. Finally Je-sus foretells Peter’s violent death (21:18–19), making Peter a witness to Jesus byhis death rather than by his words.
Reinhold Feldmeier’s essay “Ecclesia peregrinans: Luke’s Concept of a Mis-sionary Church,” focuses on how the motif of “the Way” and the notion of trav-eling is centrally important for Luke’s portrait of Jesus as an itinerant preacheras well as for the conception of a missionary church. The tradition of the travel-ing master accompanied by his disciples goes back to Jesus and is reflected in allthree Synoptic Gospels. One of the distinctive features of the Gospel of Luke isthe travel narrative, which occupies half of the narrative based on the memoryof Jesus’ life as itinerant preacher and healer. Luke both adapts and amplifiesJesus’ life of homelessness and wandering, connected with the motif of being anoutsider, beginning with Jesus’ birth in a stable (Luke 2:7). John the Baptist alsoexemplified life as an outsider and Luke emphasizes the parallel features of thelifestyle of Jesus and John. The historical Jesus did not restrict his message of thedawning Kingdom of God to a few disciples, but rather traveled to where peo-ple lived inviting them to change their minds in view of the imminent arrival
Introduction 7
of the Kingdom. A parallel phenomenon is the wandering of Cynic sages, whomodeled a life of abstinence and self-denial. Jesus’ command to “follow me”invited people to accompany him in his wandering ministry. Luke’s Travel Nar-rative (9:51–19:44) is a literary device created by the evangelist to amplify themotifs homelessness and wandering. The goal of Jesus’ wandering is Jerusalem,where the final events of his life play out. Historically, the presentation of con-tinuous travel to Jerusalem is not very convincing, a fact that indicates that theTravel Narrative is a literary motif developed by the evangelist. One of Luke’s fa-vorite words is “the Way” in both the Gospel and Acts, which characterizes thelifestyle of the followers of Jesus. Potential followers of Jesus are urged to leavetheir families and friends and to follow the new lifestyle of homeless wandering.The final goal of Jesus’ travels is not only Jerusalem, but his being “taken up” andenthroned at the right hand of God. The motif of traveling is not restricted inLuke to the lifetime of Jesus, but is also continued after his resurrection whenhe meets with two disciples on the way to Emmaus (Luke 24:13–35). The As-cension of Jesus, a motif unique to Luke-Acts, is followed by the formation ofthe church and its empowerment by the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8). The resultantmission of the church is always understood as an itinerant act. The exaltationof Jesus is the prerequisite for his new constant presence among his itinerantapostles. In Acts, Paul is given the same profile as Jesus and is portrayed as anitinerant preacher who is victorious by enduring resistance and persecution un-til death. The centrality of the motif of traveling in Luke-Acts is emphasized bycalling the church “theWay.” Therefore, “the ecclesia peregrinans corresponds toits wandering master who sends out his disciples at the beginning of the TravelNarrative to testify the propinquity of God’s Kingdom in every town and place(Luke 10:1–12).”
The Acts of the Apostles
Volker Gäckle discusses “The Proclamation of the Kingdom of God in Acts.”The author reminds us that the Kingdom of God, the primary theme of theteaching of Jesus, was a subject of central emphasis in Hans Kvalbein’s research.Against the more widespread understanding of βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ as “reign ofGod,” first proposed by Gustaf Dalman, Kvalbein (following his teacher SverreAalen) understood the phrase to mean “place, time or gift of salvation.” WhileKvalbein discussed the occurrence of the phrase the Kingdom of God in Paul,John and the Gospel of Thomas, he did not treat its meaning in Acts, and itis that task which Gäckle undertakes in this essay. While the phrase βασιλείατοῦ θεοῦ occurs 131 times in the Synoptic Gospels and 35 times in Luke, it oc-curs just 8 times in Acts, but at very important points in the narrative. Since thephrase occurs twice in the opening (Acts 1:1–14 [vv. 3, 6]) and twice in the clos-
8 David E. Aune
ing sections of Acts (28:17–31 [vv. 23, 31]), it functions as an inclusio framingthe Book of Acts. In three further passages, Acts 8:12, 19:8 and 20:5, the phraseβασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ is used in an important milestone in Acts.
Each of the six remaining uses of the phrase βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ in Acts (1:3;8:12; 19:8; 20:25; 28:23, 31) occur in the context of an extended act of com-munication. In Acts 1:3 Luke refers to the repeated appearances of Jesus tohis disciples during the forty days between his resurrection and ascension,when he speaks to them “the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God,” em-phasizing the continuity between the pre-Easter of Jesus and the post-Eastermessage of his apostles. The forty-day period indicates a time of preparationfor the apostles. Therefore τὰ περὶ τῆς βασιλείας τοῦ θεοῦ represents the wholecontent of the truth revealed in Christ. The Christological dimension of βασι-λεία-communication is particularly evident in Acts 8:12 and 28:23–31, wherethe proclamation of the Kingdom is further defined by “the name of JesusChrist” (8:12) and “the things about the Lord Jesus Christ” (28:23, 31), explic-itly emphasizing continuity with the preaching of Jesus. The history of salvationdimension is also emphasized in Acts 20:25 (cf. vv. 24, 27) and 28:23, i. e., Christas the fulfilment of the Old Testament promises. In Acts, the hidden connectionbetween Jesus’ proclamation of the Kingdom and his own identity and ministryis made explicit. In the Gospel of Luke, the proclamation of the Kingdom isnever related to the messianic claim of Jesus, while in Acts the proclamation ofthe Kingdom of God is a general formulation for the whole salvific plan of God.In Acts, Luke brings together what remains separated in the Gospel of Luke,the βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ and Christology are combined in the concept “salvationin Christ.” The βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ in Acts is a general term for the Christianmessage of salvation in Jesus Christ, including the present sense of the gift ofeternal life and the future sense of the coming Kingdom as the place and timeof salvation.
In “Frustrated Plans and Unexpected Outcome: Acts 16:6–8 Re-considered,”Klaus Haacker reconsiders the issues in the debate on Paul’s route through AsiaMinor and whether Paul’s letter to the Galatians was addressed to congregationsfounded by Paul and Barnabas in the southern part of the Roman province ofGalatia (Acts 13–14) or to churches founded during the journey recorded inActs 16, the northern part of Galatia. Paul’s second missionary journey is oftenregarded as the decisive event in the spread of the gospel from the Middle Eastto Europe. One major issue is whether the term “Galatia” in Gal 1:2 (cf. 3:1)has an ethnic or political meaning. As a young man, Paul exhibited a fanati-cal zeal in persecuting members of the Jesus movement, which he regarded asa threat to traditional Judaism. After his transformation through a revelatoryexperience of the living Jesus, Paul channeled his zeal and energy in the prop-agation of his newfound faith. According to the commission Paul received inActs 22:17–21, he began a lifelong mission to proclaim the gospel to other na-

tionalities, eventually focusing on gentiles who were sympathetic to Judaism.He began to travel throughout Asia Minor proclaiming the gospel to Jews aswell as to gentile sympathizers with Judaism. After having founded churches inthe southern part of Galatia during his first missionary journey, Paul intendedto continue his campaign into the Roman province of Asia, but was forbiddenby the Holy Spirit to do so (Acts 16:6). He then decided to visit the provinceof Bithynia on the northern coast of Asia Minor but was again divinely forbid-den to continue (Acts 16:7). Paul and his companions then received a visioninviting them to visit Macedonia (Acts 16:9–10), where he founded the con-gregation at Philippi. It is likely that when Paul crossed the sea to Macedoniahe began to entertain the notion of visiting Rome, an intention that apparentlywas frequent frustrated (Rom 1:9–10, 13). This was a decisive step in spread-ing the gospel from the more oriental regions of Asia Minor to Europe. Paulsomehow conceived of the idea to proclaim the gospel in Rome, but was oftenfrustrated by his inability to travel there (Rom 1:13). After Philippi, Paul fol-lowed the Via Egnatia to Thessalonica where he founded a congregation, butended up in conflict with both the people and authorities there, which probablyfrustrated his plans to continue west to Rome. Paul’s success at Ephesus (Acts19:8–10) provided another reason to delay going to Rome, though that projectremained in his mind (Acts 19:21). Though the story of Paul as told by Lukeends in Rome, it was Paul’s intention to push as far as the Iberian Peninsula(Rom 15:24). While we know that Paul did reach Rome, it is also likely that hereached Spain as well (1 Clem. 5:1–7). Paul’s concern to proclaim the gospel innew areas did not diminish his desire to care to the needs of the congregationshe had already founded, though visiting them often proved problematic (e. g.,1 Thess 2:18). Paul’s intention for his second missionary journey was primarilybased on his desire to strengthen existing congregations (Acts 15:41; 16:4–5).The author concludes with a reconsideration of Acts 16:6–8 and argues that theNorth Galatian theory should be dismissed and the biblical maps that includeMysia and Bithynia should be redrawn.
Rainer Riesner has contributed an essay on “The Gentile Mission of the Hel-lenists (Acts 11:19–21) and the Jesus Tradition.” Riesner refers to the traditionthat Greek-speaking Jewish believers (Acts 6:1) were driven from Jerusalem justone or two years after the death and resurrection of Jesus and made their wayto Antioch where they proclaimed the gospel to Greek-speaking Gentiles (Acts11:19–21). Unfortunately, Luke does not tell us what motivated some Greek-speaking Jewish believers to take the extraordinary step of expanding the Mes-sianic mission to Gentiles as well as Jews. In this essay, Riesner proposes somepossible reasons why this extraordinary step was taken. Even though Acts 11:20might suggest that Gentiles became part of the Messianic mission for the firsttime in Antioch, the conversion and baptism of two god-fearers, the Ethiopianeunuch and Cornelius (Acts 8 and 10) suggest that the inclusion of the Gentiles
10 David E. Aune
was a graduate process, though the mission to the Gentiles was carried out on alarger scale in Antioch. The preaching of the Hellenists in Antioch that appealedto Jewish proselytes and god-fearers, was so effective that the authorities desig-nated the new religious group of Jews and Gentiles asΧριστιανοί. Assuming thatthe martyrdom and speech of Stephen was widely known among the Hellenists,Stephen’s vision of Jesus as the exalted Son of Man had profound consequencesfor the Gentiles (Dan 7:13–14). The Old Testament expectation of the inclusionof the Gentiles in the people of God in the eschaton is a key presupposition ofthe Gentile mission, though this expectation could be construed as a pilgrim-age of Gentiles to Jerusalem only at the end of time. Riesner asks whether thereare any sayings of Jesus which could have been cherished by the AntiocheneHellenists and which would have justified an active mission to the Gentiles.The Jerusalem Hellenists may have been responsible for translated many of thesayings of Jesus into Greek and the Q document, which contains many posi-tive statements about Gentiles, may have originated as a book of instructionfor Gentile converts; the same may be said about Jesus tradition common toMark and Matthew. Some Jesus traditions in Q might have been used to le-gitimate a mission to the Gentiles such as the woes pronounced by Jesus onChorazin and Bethsaida (Matt 11:21–23 // Luke 10:13–15; cf. Matt 8:11–12 //Luke 13:28–29; Matt 12:41–42 // Luke 11:31–32). Yet another important textis the story of the healing of the servant of the pagan centurion (Matt 8:5–13// Luke 7:1–10). When the proclamation of Jesus the Messiah spread beyondGalilee, it would have touched Gentiles areas such as Tyre and Sidon and sev-eral cities of the Decapolis. Among pre-Matthean traditions, a prime exampleof a focus on Gentiles is the healing of the daughter of a Gentile woman in theborder region between Galilee and the Hellenistic city of Tyre (Matt 15:21–28 //Mark 7:24–30). Matthew 28:16–20, which focuses on a mission to the Gentilesprobably contains pre-Matthean features. While the interpretation of the inclu-sion of Gentiles into the people of Israel was found in Old Testament prophecyand played an important role in defending the Gentile mission, the Jesus tradi-tion also play a similar role.
In “Migration and Mission in the Book of Acts,” Christoph Stenschke ar-gues that the theme of migration and dislocation were of central importanceto the early Christian mission. Acts contains many examples of both voluntaryand forced migration and the author focuses on the opportunities that bothplayed in the early Christian mission. Many examples of migration occur inActs 1–6, including the miracle of Pentecost, a text which lists Jews who cameto Jerusalem from fifteen ethnic groups (Acts 2:9–11). The conflicts narratedin Acts 4–5 are not only a response to the miracles and proclamation of thegospel but also because these Galilean apostles challenged the Jewish leadershipon their own turf. Acts 6 mentions a group of Hellenistic Diaspora Jews whowere present in Jerusalem for religious reasons. Thus Acts 1–6 indicates that
