Gospel of Luke

The Gospel of Luke is a New Testament book first published around 85, traditionally attributed to Luke the Evangelist. It is the third of the canonical Gospels and is written in New Testament Greek. The book presents the origins, birth, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus, focusing on the shape of the story rather than on a single dramatic plot.

This book suits readers who want a clear entry point into the Christian Scriptures and are interested in how the life of Jesus is framed in a literary, religious text. It is especially notable for its audience beyond a Jewish readership and for its close connection to Acts of the Apostles, which gives it a broader place within the New Testament. If you like texts that combine narrative with theology and a strong historical-religious perspective, this is a natural fit.
