Abstract

Two related topics in the Gospel of Luke are gender (women and men) and food (hospitality, meals, table fellowship). Concerning food, David P.Moessner states, ‘At table Jesus reveals himself as the Lord-Host of the Heavenly Banquet which is now dynamically being fulfilled in his journeying to Jerusalem’ (1989: 174).1 So strategic is this topic that one might be led to believe, as Robert J.Karris points out, ‘Jesus is either going to a meal, at a meal, or coming from a meal’ (1985:47). Jesus seems to eat with nearly everyone-toll collectors, sinners, disciples, crowds, Pharisees and women.
