An outline of the trope is followed by an exposition of passages which might be interpreted through this lens. The study reveals that use of the motif would provide an introit, but that many further layers of meaning were present to those who read the text from a Judaic background. This holds good for explorations of place in Samaria, the Temple and Galilee. In one important respect, the gospel shifts the way in which the motif works – by presenting Jesus as the focus and shaper of the desirable place, rather than the place itself simply as a metaphor or symbol of desirable elements.]]> Wed 04 Sep 2019 09:54:41 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45931 Tue 08 Nov 2022 10:00:23 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28977 Thu 26 Jul 2018 15:53:23 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4042 Sat 24 Mar 2018 10:58:56 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9313 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:33:52 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39225 Fri 27 May 2022 11:58:26 AEST ]]>
