New in G+C: "Touching the Divine: Intra-action in the Gospel of Luke" by Clarissa Breu

In this article, two passages in which Jesus encounters women who touch him are juxtaposed with Karen Barad's theory of touch (Luke 7:36–50 and 8:43–49). It is shown that an interpretation in the light of critical posthumanism allows a new perspective on the narrative production of bodies in these texts. In a close reading against the background of other ancient texts, the argument is developed that Jesus and the women in these two passages are intra-acting. They emerge as entangled entities in their encounters. Hierarchies associated with binary oppositions and a tradition of separation between an invisible spiritual and a visible material sphere are thus challenged.

    I want to give thanks to Dr Gerald for bringing back my ex husband. No one could have ever made me believe that the article I’m about to write would actually one day be written. I was the world’s biggest skeptic. I never believed in magic spells or anything like this, but I was told by a reliable source (a very close co-worker) that Dr Gerald is a very dedicated, gifted, and talented person, It was one of the best things I have ever done. My love life was in shambles, I had been through two divorces and was on the brink of a third. I just couldn’t face another divorce, and I wanted to try harder to make our relationship work, but my husband didn’t seem to care. and he broke up with me again. I was confused and do not know what to do again, rather them to get in contact with Dr Gerald. He did a love spell that made my husband come back to me. We are now very much happy with ourselves. Dr Gerald makes him realize how much we love and need each other. This man is for REAL and for good, he can also help you to fix your broken relationship. I had my husband back! It was like a miracle! He suddenly wanted to go to marriage counseling, and we’re doing very, very well, in our love life. Contact

    I still can’t believe I’m writing this today, but I just have to share my story. After my husband left me, I was completely devastated. We had been together for years, and I couldn’t understand what went wrong. He moved out, stopped communicating, and even started seeing someone else. I tried everything I could think of to make things right, but nothing worked. Then, a close friend told me about Dr. Great, a spiritual spell caster who helps reunite lost lovers. I was skeptical at first, but I was desperate to save my marriage, so I decided to give it a try. I contacted Dr. Great, explained my situation, and he listened patiently. He assured me that he could help restore my marriage — and after 48 hours of him casting the spell, things started to change.Out of nowhere, my husband called me to apologize. He told me he had been thinking a lot about us and wanted to come home. Within a week, he was back, full of love and regret. Since then, our relationship has been stronger than ever. I’m so grateful to Dr. Great for his powerful work and for bringing peace and love back into my life. If anyone out there is going through something similar, don’t give up. There’s hope, and sometimes the right help can make all the difference. Email Dr Great at

    There’s nothing more painful than watching the one you love walk away. I experienced that pain when my partner broke up with me suddenly. For weeks, I cried myself to sleep and thought I’d never be happy again.

    I stumbled upon Priest Az’s name online, and I decided to give it a try. He explained the process of his love spell and gave me so much reassurance. I followed his guidance, and within a very short time, my partner came back. It was like a heavy load was lifted off my shoulders.

    Now we are together, and it feels like our love has been reborn. I’m sharing this because I know someone out there may be where I once was. Don’t give up—Priest Az’s love spell truly works. Contact him at Mightylovespell@gmail.com OR Text/WhatsApp: +43 680 5400 8232
