Luke

24 chapters · 1,151 verses · Luke (physician, Paul's companion) · ~60 AD

A doctor with an eye for detail writes the most compassionate account of Jesus — the one who noticed women, children, the sick, the outcast, and the ones everyone else walked past.

Overview

Luke gives Jesus to the world. Written by the only Gentile author in the Bible, this Gospel emphasizes that Jesus came for everyone — especially those on the margins. The parables of the Good Samaritan and the Prodigal Son appear only in Luke. Mary's Magnificat, the shepherds at the manger, and the road to Emmaus — all uniquely Luke.
