However, historical evidence suggests that Jesus' first-century world was filled with children. Re-reading Luke's gospel in this light, For Theirs Is the Kingdom interrogates the role and presence of children among Jesus' early followers. It offers a new perspective on Luke's child-centered narratives and the account as a whole, highlighting the acceptance and participation of children in the Kingdom of God. By emphasizing interdependence across generations, Lindeman Allen places interdependence at the core of Lukan discipleship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 417g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 x 21 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781978703230\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amy Lindeman Allen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":47482071023866,"sku":"9781978703230","price":34.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1751624984701_book.jpg?v=1751756234","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/for-theirs-is-the-kingdom-inclusion-and-participation-of-children-in-the-gospel-according-to-luke-9781978703230","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
