The Hymns of Luke's Infancy Narratives: Their Origin, Meaning and Significance - Bloomsbury Academic Collections: Biblical Studies
Stephen Farris
These hymns, the Magnificat, Benedictus and Nunc Dimittis, are a familiar part of Christian liturgy; but their origin is uncertain, their meaning debated and their significance within Luke-Acts often ignored. This monograph argues that they were composed in Hebrew by Jewish-Christian poets, and were incorporated by the evangelist as anticipating certain key themes of his own work.
