We have been studying in this section of Luke’s gospel about the kingdom of God. There have been two themes in this section: what is the kingdom of God and who belongs to the kingdom of God? Luke continues his instructions about the kingdom by noting the question of the Pharisees concerning the kingdom. The Pharisees ask when the kingdom of God would come. John the Baptizer had been proclaiming that the kingdom of God was near. Jesus has also been repeatedly teaching the nearness of the coming of the kingdom of God. Luke has emphasized this truth in a number of places throughout this gospel.
