And stayed continually at the temple, praising God — stayed continually at the temple, praising God: the final image of the Gospel community. The temple where the Gospel began (Zechariah's incense vision, 1:8–11) is where it ends — but now filled with the community that has seen the resurrection and awaits the Spirit. Praising God: the last word of Luke's Gospel is the orientation of the community toward the God who has done all these things.
