Focusing on Acts 16, Eric D. Barreto inquires as to the function of ethnic identities in Luke's composition. He shows that race and ethnicity were theologically vital yet flexible notions in Acts. Luke does not erase ethnic difference but employs the flexible bounds of ethnicity in order to illustrate the wide reach of the early church movement.
