Written by Luke, a physician and companion of Paul (roughly A.D. 60s). Luke provides the most detailed and orderly account of Jesus' life, emphasizing His compassion for the poor, the outcast, and the Gentiles — presenting Jesus as the Savior of all people.
Luke opens with a historian's care and a theologian's depth, tracing the Spirit-filled births of John and Jesus, the songs of the faithful poor, and Jesus's self-declaration in Nazareth that the year of the Lord's favor has arrived.
Across seventeen chapters of distinctive material, Jesus proclaims the kingdom to the poor and the outcast through unforgettable parables and acts of healing, mercy, and table fellowship that reveal the searching heart of God.
Luke's passion and resurrection account is marked by prayer, forgiveness, and the welcome of the penitent criminal — and concludes not in silence but in joy, worship, and the beginning of a worldwide mission.
