      ab: This article argues that a thus far neglected aspect of Luke's Christology is the portrayal of Jesus as a benefactor. It interprets the use of lexemes of the semantic domain euergetes ("benefactor") in Luke-Acts (Luke 22:25; Acts 4:9; 10:38) against the background of ancient sources. The common feature of designating kings and emperors as saviours and benefactors fits perfectly, both with Luke's use of the title "saviour" for Jesus and with his royal Christology, but adds a decisive new aspect: Jesus, the heavenly lord and judge, is not a tyrant, but a beneficial ruler.
