Luke, the Jew: Introduction to the Jewish Character of the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles - Paperback

by Peter Van 't Riet (Author)

For centuries the evangelist Luke has been seen as the only non-Jewish author of the New Testament writing for a non-Jewish Christian public. Reading his gospel and the Acts as a form of midrash literature shows however that Luke was more probably a Greek speaking Jew who wrote his books with a Jewish message for a Jewish public.
