The aim of this article is to investigate the nature of Theophilus as the original reader of Luke-Acts. A lexical and grammatical analysis of Luke 1:1–4 and of the broader literary context of the Luke-Acts narrative provided the basis for discovering the identity of Theophilus. This article proposes that Theophilus was a man of prominent position: a Gentile who had received some introductory teachings about Christ and who needed factual verification of the events surrounding the emergence of Christianity. Die doel van hierdie artikel is om Theophilus, as die oorspronklike leser van Lukas-Handelinge, se identiteit te ondersoek. ’n Leksikale en grammatikale ontleding van Lukas 1:1–4, asook ’n ontleding van die breër literêre konteks van die Lukas-Handelinge-narratief, bied die basis vir die ontdekking van Theophilus se identiteit. Hierdie artikel stel Theophilus voor as ’n man met ’n prominente posisie: ’n nie-Jood wat basiese Christusonderrig ontvang het en wat die bevestiging van die gebeure rondom die opkoms van die Christendom voorop gestel het.

“…5 À l'autre extrémité, harmoniser les données des épîtres et des Actes, n'est pas satisfaisant pour autant. 6 Si elles plaident à juste titre pour la complémentarité des données de l'apôtre et de Luc, les positions déployées de part et d'autre sur la question de la Torah ne sont pas superposables. Vielhauer a raison: l'acuité du débat sur la validité de la Loi n'est plus du tout le souci de Luc.…”

The article addresses the problem of the reception of Paul: how does the construction of the image of Paul in the Deuteropauline letters (Colossians, Ephesians, 2 Thessalonians), the Pastoral letters, the Acts of the Apostles and the apocryphal Acts of Paul relate together? The difficult question of the relationship between Paul in his letters and Paul in Acts is treated first. A typology of the reception of Paul is proposed following three poles: documentary (his letters), biographical (his life) and doctoral (his permanent authority for the Church). The conception that Paul's letters were the only regulation for the memory of Paul in the first century isdenied. This three poles typology is applied to some topics of the Pauline tradition: the status of the apostle, the suffering of the apostle, and his teaching. It is possible to observe finally how the writings which honor the memory of the apostle have interpreted these topics by working out a feature present in the writings of the apostle.

“…Com esta leitura, o autor parece compreender que é Paulo que está "impondo" uma interpretação própria à história do Gênesis, mas não insiste nesta compreensão, enfatizando apenas que os detalhes narrativos não seriam essenciais em uma leitura alegórica. 78 F. F. Bruce (1975) tem plena consciência de que Paulo atribui as palavras de Sara às escrituras (Gl 4,30). Para o autor, esta questão não deve ser tratada como um problema moral ou legal, simplesmente deve ser entendido que Paulo tratou o dito de Sara como palavra das Escrituras, que é palavra de Deus.…”
