page 251 note 9 With regard to the contention that Jesus' agony is presented as a martyr's suffering, Barbour, R. S. (‘Gethsemane in the Tradition of the Passion’, N.T.S. 16 (1969–1970), 239Google Scholar) observes that Luke of all the evangelists hardly presents Jesus' suffering in his passion in so graphic a way that it could be fairly described as a martyrological struggle.

page 253 note 1 Contrast Hooker, M. D. (Jesus and the Servant (London, 1959,) p. 162)Google Scholar, who argues that the Isaianic Servant figure was not the OT background for either Jesus' or Luke's understanding of Jesus' Messianic mission. She suggests that the suffering of the saints of the Most High as well as the glory of the Son of Man in Daniel is the proper background to Jesus' self-understanding. While her findings with regard to the lack of Isaiah influence may be questioned on methodological grounds (cf. France, R. T., ‘The Servant of the Lord in the Teaching of Jesus’, Tyn. Bull. 19 (1968), 26–52)Google Scholar, it is interesting to note that she fails to deal with either the significance of ένισχύω in Daniel, Isaiah, or Luke; or the fact that the willing obedience of the suffering Servant has no explicit parallel in the description of the saints who suffer.
