Acknowledgements
This study would not have been possible without the assistance that I have received from various individuals. First and foremost, I am grateful to THE ALMIGHTY GOD for the gift of life, good health, and for many blessings that HE has bestowed upon me.
I owe my deepest gratitude to my Doktorvater Professor Dr. Bernhard Heininger for his supervision, insightful comments, and above all, for instilling in me the love of biblical narratology. Vergelt’s Gott.
I am profoundly grateful to Rev. Mag. PGDip. Tony Addy for his diligent proofreading of my manuscript. My heartfelt thanks.
My religious family, The Congregation of the Missionaries of Mariannhill, deserves a special mention for giving me the opportunity to pursue my doctoral studies and for constant encouragement and support.
Last but not least, I am grateful to my family for moulding me into what I am today, and for their continual loving support in my ministry. God bless you all.

Introduction
1. Background of the Study
1. ἐπειδήπερ πολλοὶ ἐπεχείρησαν ἀνατάξασθαι διήγησιν περὶ τῶν πεπληροφορημένων ἐν ἡμῖν πραγμάτων, 2. καθὼς παρέδοσαν ἡμῖν οἱ ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς αὐτόπται καὶ ὑπηρέται γενόμενοι τοῦ λόγου, 3. ἔδοξε κἀμοὶ παρηκολουθηκότι ἄνωθεν πᾶσιν ἀκριβῶς καθεξῆς σοι γράψαι, κράτιστε Θεόφιλε, 4. ἵνα ἐπιγνῷς περὶ ὧν κατηχήθης λόγων τὴν ἀσφάλειαν (Λουκᾶς 1:1-4). |
Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile an orderly account of the events that have been fulfilled among us, just as they were handed on to us by those who were eyewitnesses from the beginning and became servants of the word, I too decided, after investigating everything carefully from the beginning, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, |
