DOI: 10.1177/0142064X7900200402 © 1979 SAGE Publications The Name of Jesus in the Acts of the ApostlesThe University of Bristol Luke in Acts does not use a 'concept of the name of Jesus' to convey the presence of an otherwise absent Lord, nor to substitute for that presence. The uses of 'name' are diverse but none of them appears to serve that purpose. Moreover, their diversity makes it inappropriate to speak of a 'concept' at all. If there is any common tendency, it is to converge on the (Lukan) gospel as what the name conveys.
