	Gospel of Luke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Gospel of Luke is the third of the four canonical Gospels of the New Testament, which tell the story of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection.
		Those who would date it earlier point out both that Luke lacks knowledge of the episcopal system, which had been developed in the second century, and that an earlier date preserves the traditional connection of the gospel with the Luke who was a follower of Paul.
		Although most scholars understand the evangelist's self-referential use of a masculine participle in Luke 1:3 to mean that the evangelist was male, this prominence of women through the Luke gospel has led a small number of scholars, including Randel McCraw Helms, to suggest that the author of Luke may have been female.

		For this reason, Luke's stated purpose is to provide an historically reliable account whereby Theophilus (and the many Gentile believers in the same situation) may read and familiarize himself with the events surrounding the person and salvation he had come to embrace through sheer faith.
		Luke's account of the Galilean phase of Jesus' ministry (3:1-9:50) is parallel in structure with Matthew and Mark.

		Luke, who travelled so much, could not be ignorant of the Roman system, and his description deliberately excludes it.
		Gospel of Luke preceded his Acts of the Apostles, and was therefore composed before the end of the Roman imprisonment, when the Acts was finished (Acts 28:30-31).

	Grace Points: Was Luke a Gentile?
		Luke accompanied Paul on his fateful last return trip to Jerusalem, and was an eyewitness to the arrest of Paul in the Temple in Acts 21.
		Luke explains that Paul never did bring any Gentiles into the Temple, but he was seen on the streets of Jerusalem with "Trophimus an Ephesian." Apparently, Paul brought Trophimus with him to Jerusalem so that the apostles and the mother church there could see first-hand the fruits of his labor among the Gentiles.
		Luke was with Paul on several occasions when they made the various trips to Jerusalem in order to report on their missionary efforts to the apostolic church.

	Gospel according to Luke
		Luke is the longest of the four gospels in the New Testament, and has a style and a vocabulary that is more evolved than what is found in Mark and Matthew (these three gospels are called synoptic, as they have many similarities in content).
		It is believed that the Gospel according to Luke was written for Christians of non-Jewish origin, it has more of a universal message than what is found in the other two synoptic gospels.
		Luke is also the gospel which first propagated the theories of tradition and legitimate succession, elements that would become central to the Roman Catholic Church and its organization

		Luke "portrayed Jesus as one who was not bound by the dividing lines that traditional Jews had erected against the poor, the lepers, the Samaritans, the women, or the gentiles.

		"The Gospel of Luke was written to illumine the Torah with occasional references to the prophets and the psalms, with a bow to the liturgical year of the Jews and with an attempt to harmonize the texts of Mark and Matthew.

		The clear implication of Luke 1:2 is that Luke himself was not an eyewitness of the ministry of Jesus.

	from jesus to christ: the story of the storytellers: the gospel of luke
		Luke wrote two works, the third gospel, an account of the life and teachings of Jesus, and the Book of Acts, which is an account of the growth and expansion of Christianity after the death of Jesus down through close to the end of the ministry of Paul.
		Luke portrays Jesus in the gospel in essentially according to the image of the divine man. The person in whom divine powers are visible and are exercised, both in his teaching and in his miracle doing.
		Luke is traditionally thought of as one of Paul's traveling companions and it's certainly the case that the author of Luke was from those Greek cities in which Paul had worked.

	The Passion According to Luke (Site not responding. Last check: )
		One of the dominant images of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke is that of Jesus as the Spirit-filled prophet.
		Luke begins Jesus' public ministry in his hometown synagogue of Nazareth, opening the scroll to do the reading from the text of Isaiah 61, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor...." (Lk 4:16-30).
		Therefore, it is not surprising that in Luke's Gospel Jesus faces his crucifixion with the courageous fidelity and prophetic sense of justice that had characterized his ministry all during the long journey from Galilee to Jerusalem.

	USCCB - NAB - Luke - Introduction
		Luke is concerned with presenting Christianity as a legitimate form of worship in the Roman world, a religion that is capable of meeting the spiritual needs of a world empire like that of Rome.
		The prologue of the gospel makes it clear that Luke is not part of the first generation of Christian disciples but is himself dependent upon the traditions he received from those who were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word (Luke 1:2).
		Among the likely sources for the composition of this gospel (Luke 1:3) were the Gospel of Mark, a written collection of sayings of Jesus known also to the author of the Gospel of Matthew (Q; see Introduction to Matthew), and other special traditions that were used by Luke alone among the gospel writers.

	Gospel of Luke
		Indeed, considering that the immediate recipient of Luke is mentioned in the preface, and given that the author of the third Gospel is aware that many other accounts have been drawn up before him, it is entirely probable that the author had indicated his name on the autograph.
		Luke had not made full use of the Isaiah 6:9-10 passage in his Gospel, for that was the time of the first visitation of the prophet, and the rejection of that prophet was mitigated by the "ignorance" of the people.
		This is not to suggest that Luke saw the preaching of Paul at Rome as being a one-off supernatural fulfillment of the commission, such that it would not have been in the works during the earlier evangelisation or that it could not have continued with other prophets.

	Luke and Josephus
		That Luke should be forced to use a rebel leader before his time is best explained by the fact that he needed someone to mention, and Josephus, his likely source, only details three distinct movements (though he goes into the rebel relatives of Judas, they are all associated with Judas).
		Luke almost certainly knew and drew upon the works of Josephus (or else an amazing series of coincidences remains in want of an explanation), and therefore Luke and Acts were written at the end of the 1st century, or perhaps the beginning of the 2nd.
		Luke uses speeches and off-hand remarks to pack in a huge number of reminders that Christianity is a sect of Judaism (and thus should be treated as such).

	Luke - Smith's Bible Dictionary on StudyLight.org
		The name Luke occurs three times in the New Testament-- (Colossians 4:14; 2 Timothy 4:11); Phle 1:24 --And probably in all three the third evangelist is the person spoken of.
		The sudden transition to the first person plural in (Acts 16:9) is most naturally explained after all the objections that have been urged, by supposing that Luke the writer of the Acts, formed one of St. Paul’s company from this point.
		During the rest of St. Paul’s second missionary journey we hear of Luke no more; but on the third journey the same indication reminds us that Luke is again of the company, (Acts 20:5) having joined it apparently at Philippi, where he had been left.
