Description (eng)
In the gospel’s context, the logion in Luke 11:34–36 remains unwieldy because the situa-tional context got lost. While Luke 11:34 describes the influence of the moral disposition on the anatomical eyesight, Luke 11:35–36 addresses the compensation of missing eye-sight by a true attitude, expressed as τὸ φῶς τὸ ἐν σοί. By including Luke 11:21–22 plus Luke 12:15 and Luke 11:29–30, it is conceivable that the situational context of Luke 11:34–36 was influenced by a visually impaired person, whose supposed indigence was contrasted with the preservation of the vested rights of an economically established group. For today’s perception, the logion could be relevant if it is evaluated as an indication of acknowledgement of physical or mental otherness and the social responsibility of all people.
