ANTIQUITY AND THE RENAISSANCE

Choose a scene, or scenes, in Genesis or in Luke where some kind of knowledge is represented. For instance, when “his disciples asked him what [a] parable meant,” Jesus answers: “to you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God; but to others I speak in parables so that ‘looking they may not perceive, and listening they may not understand’” (Luke 8: 9-12). And yet, at other moments, Jesus seems to be preaching publicly to large crowds. According to one scholar writing with the parable in mind, “the history of interpretation may be thought of as a history of exclusions. . .we must ask what it means to be an insider and what it is that keeps outsiders outside.” To take another example from Luke, Jesus says to his disciples, “‘Listen to what I have to tell you. The Son of Man is to be given up to the power of men.’ But they did not understand what he said; its meaning had been hidden from them, so that they could not grasp it, and they were afraid to ask him about it’” (Luke 9:43). What is the “hidden” meaning in this passage—that is, what does Jesus know, and they don’t? Why are the disciples “afraid to ask”? Why is it hidden? Is it just that the disciples don’t get it, or does Jesus intend to hide his meaning for some reason? Does Luke reveal it at the end? Are there example of open or hidden knowledge in Genesis? Write a paper that explores the representation of this (and other) instances of the relationship between dissemination (of the Word) to all
