abstract   bibtex   
Luke 9:1-50 with the mountain of revelation (vv. 28-36) prefigures the "travel narrative" (Lk 9:51-19:44) as the New Exodus journey by its typology of recapitulation and consummation of the calling and fate of Moses in Deuteronomy for Jesus, the Prophet like Moses (Deut 18:15-19; Acts 3:22-23; Acts 7:37): 1) From the cloud of fire Moses/Jesus is called to journey on the Exodus as the "voice" of God; 2) Met already with fear and reluctance on the mountain and twisted below on the plain, this voice is repudiated by an obstinate generation; 3) Accordingly, Moses/Jesus must journey to die for the intransigent sin of the people; 4) Only the "children" of the mountain "inherit" the Exodus salvation.
