This project aims at a comprehensive elaboration of a central theological motif in Luke-Acts, i.e. the plan of God. Methodologically, the examination shall advance in two steps. Drawing upon the insight of previous research that Luke’s predominant way of doing theology is by narrating, the first step will be a close reading of the text by applying the methods of narratology. The working hypothesis is that dramatic irony, which is understood as a difference in either knowledge or comprehension between the characters of a text and its readers, is Luke’s narrative key technique to elaborate his concept of a divine plan.In a second step, the results shall be contextualized by a comparison with exemplary texts of different narrative genres. The working hypothesis is that the author of Luke-Acts avoids the term “providence” but uses narrative structures that ancient readers would typically relate to the idea of a divine guidance. In contrast to much previous research, the aim is not to uncover literary dependencies, but to appreciate Luke-Acts as an original work with its own literary and theological perspective within a contemporary discourse.In conclusion, the study aims at a critical reassessment of the notions “salvation history”, “providence”, and “plan of God”, and shall eventually lead to a re-description of the same phenomenon in terms of the cultural context of the first-century addressees, and not in terms developed from theological preconceptions.

这个项目的目的是全面阐述一个中心的神学主题在卢克行为，即上帝的计划。在方法上，审查应分两步进行。借鉴以往研究的洞察力，路加的主要方式做神学是通过叙事，第一步将是一个文本的应用叙事学的方法进行仔细阅读。工作假设是戏剧性的反讽，即理解为文本中的人物和读者之间在知识或理解上的差异，是路加阐述他的神圣计划概念的叙事关键技术。第二步，通过与不同叙事类型的典型文本进行比较，将结果置于语境中。工作的假设是，卢克行为的作者避免了“普罗维登斯”一词，但使用的叙事结构，古代读者通常会涉及到一个神圣的指导思想。与以往的研究不同，本研究的目的不是揭示文学的依赖性，而是在当代话语中以自己的文学和神学视角来欣赏《路加福音·使徒行传》。并将最终导致一个重新描述的同一现象的文化背景下的第一个世纪的收件人，而不是在条款发展从神学的先入之见。
