Understanding the Gospel of Luke with Prophet Russ
Prophet Russ offers dynamic insights into the Gospel of Luke, aiming to deepen your understanding of Jesus’s life.
The book of Luke, written by Luke—a Gentile physician and companion of the Apostle Paul—provides an authoritative account of Jesus’s life. Addressed to a Roman official and believer named Theophilus, the Gospel likely served as an official record, possibly distributed with Theophilus’s support. It was written approximately 40-50 years after Jesus’s resurrection, around the time of the Jewish revolt in 70 AD.
Luke distinguishes his account by presenting himself as an “insider” with direct knowledge, allowing him to present accurate facts and exclude inaccurate narratives. The book begins by detailing the miraculous birth of John the Baptist, born to elderly parents, much like the prophet Samuel. This highlights a common theme in the lives of significant figures: divine intervention surrounding their births. John’s father, Zechariah, was an influential priest who received a divine message while serving in the temple.
