Introduction Testimony of early Christianity to the gospel of Luke Title of the gospel Authorship Date of composition Place of composition Reflections on the testimony to the third gospel in early Christianity Luke's sources Narrative structure Epilogue on Marcion
Summary: Though Luke is often thought to have a primarily Gentile focus, Edwards counterbalances that perspective by citing numerous evidences of Luke's overarching interest in depicting Jesus as the fulfillment of God's providential work in the history of Israel, and he even considers the possibility that Like himself was a Jew. In several excursuses Edwards discusses particular topics, including Luke's infancy narratives, the mission of Jesus as the way of salvation, and Luke's depiction of the universal scope of the gospel.
