The Gospel according to Luke
Τὸ κατὰ Λουκᾶν εὐαγγέλιον

The most literary of the gospels, written in careful Greek and addressed to one Theophilus. It contains its own infancy narrative (the annunciation, the manger, the shepherds) and exclusive parables—the good Samaritan, the prodigal son, the rich man and Lazarus—that stress mercy towards the poor, women and the marginalised. It sets Jesus's life in the history of the Empire (Augustus, Tiberius, Quirinius) and narrates a long journey to Jerusalem. On the cross it transmits the words of forgiveness and of surrender to the Father.
Authorship note
Anonymous. Irenaeus (c. 180) attributes it to Luke, a physician and companion of Paul. It is the first part of a two-volume work with the Acts of the Apostles; its author states in the prologue (1:1–4) that he has investigated earlier sources. Scholarship dates it c. 80–90 and credits it with using Mark, Q and its own traditions.
