Luke

About this book

The Gospel of Luke is unique in that the story of Jesus has a sequel in the account of Acts. Thus, the work of Jesus and the church are related together through the eyes of the same human author. This means that the introductory concerns of the two volumes overlap; that is, evidence from Acts is also evidence about Luke. Luke-Acts is about God's plan. The Gospel explains who Jesus was, what he did, why he came, and how he prepared the disciples for the role they would have in that plan. - Introduction to Luke.
