Session 36: Intro to Luke and Luke 1:1-36


Listen Later

Key Points:

Luke was a Gentile, his emphasis was that Jesus came for ALL regardless of ethnicity or status. 
Women tended to be the heroes.  Emphasis on the value of the poor and treatment of them.

  • Emphasis of the Holy Spirit.
  • The gospel of JOY!
  • Emphasis on forgiveness.
  • Emphasis on prayer.
  • Luke not an eyewitness to Christ’s ministry but a travelling companion of Paul. Also wrote Acts of the Apostles.


    50+% of “Mark” (source document for Luke) material is in “Luke.”

    Chapter 1 - Only gospel that talks about John the Baptist’s conception and birth. Elizabeth - a hero.

    V26 - Mary a hero.

    V35 - “Power of Most High will OVERSHADOW” Mary. (Important for Ark of Covenant analogy to come.)
