Episode description

Mark Goodacre says that Luke invented a new Parable of the Minas (Luke 19:11-27), trying to make it different from the Parable of the Talents told in Matthew 25:14-30. But, says Goodacre, Luke made up a clunky parable (that Jesus never really told) due to "editorial fatigue," and we can find the signs of this in the parables themselves. Here I discuss the question of whether a 10 vs. 1 pattern is really especially typical of Luke, something Goodacre claims is a giveaway of Luke's invention. Where would mainstream NT scholars be without cherry picking and illusory "patterns"? Goodacre's influential article is available here free: https://markgoodacre.org/Q/fatigue.htm I also refer to this monograph: https://archive.org/details/gouldergospelsex0000good And this book: https://www.amazon.com/Synoptic-Problem-through-Understanding-Bible/dp/0567080560
