  4. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • THE PROLOGUE - 1:1-4 • a preliminary discourse that could be in the form of a greeting or a poem or some other literary device. LUKE’s OUTLINE

  5. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE, STRUCTURE LUKE1:1-4 Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfilled among us,2 just as those who from the beginning were

  6. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE, STRUCTURE LUKE1:1-4 eyewitnesses and ministers of the word delivered them to us, 3 it seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first,

  7. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE, STRUCTURE LUKE1:1-4 to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus, 4that you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed.

  8. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • 2) THE BIRTH OF JOHN THE BAPTIST and JESUS (1:5 – 2:52). • 3) PREPARATION FOR MINISTRY (3:1-4 - 4:13). • 4) THE MINISTRY OF JESUS CHRIST IN GALILEE (4:14 -9:50). LUKE’s OUTLINE

  9. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • 5) JESUS’ JOURNEY TO JERUSALEM (9:51 - 19:44). • This is the longest section of Luke, and covers several features that are not included in the other gospels. Pay attention in this section. LUKE’s OUTLINE

  10. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • 6) JESUS IN JERUSALEM (19:45 - 21:8). • 7) JESUS’ CRUCIFIXION AND RESURRECTION (22:1 -24:53). LUKE’s OUTLINE

  11. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • Luke goes his own way when speaking of the RESURRECTION of Jesus Christ. • He emphasises the seven mile walk from Jerusalem to the small city called Emmaus. LUKE’s INTEREST

  12. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 Now behold, two of them were traveling that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was seven miles (60 Strada) fromJerusalem.

  13. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.15 So it was, while they conversed and reasoned, that Jesus Himself drew near and went with them.

  14. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 But their eyes were restrained, so that they did not know Him. 17 And He said to them, “What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?”

  15. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 18Then the one whose name was Cleopas(kla-a-pas – of a renowned father [John 19:25]) answered and said to Him, “Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not

  16. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 known the things which happened there in these days?” 19 And He said to them, “What things?” So they said to Him, “The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth,

  17. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 who was a Prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, 20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death,

  18. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 and crucified Him. 21 But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happened. 

  19. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 22Yes, and certain women of our company, who arrived at the tomb early, astonished us. 23 When they did not find His body, they came saying that

  20. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive.24 And certain of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women

  21. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 had said; but Him they did not see.” 25Then He said to them,  “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

  22. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 26Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into His glory?” 27 And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the

  23. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 things concerning Himself. 28Then they drew near to the village where they were going, and He indicated that He would have gone farther. 

  24. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 29But they constrained Him, saying, “Abide with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent.” And He went in to stay with them.

  25. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 30Now it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them. 31 Then their eyes were opened and they knew Him;

  26. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 and He vanished from their sight. 32 And they said to one another, “Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?”

  27. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 33So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together, 34 saying,

  28. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s INTEREST LUKE 24:13-35 “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!” 35 And they told about the things that had happened on the road, and how He was known to them in the breaking of bread.

  29. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • Their eyes were restrained because they knew Jesus as a prophet and a teacher but not as the SON OF GOD. • Jesus used scriptures to prepare them to see Him.

  30. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • Their HEARTS BURNED WITHIN THEM when the SCRIPTURES were used to EXPLAIN Jesus Christ. • Their eyes were opened when they broke bread with HIM.

  31. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • Acts, also a work of LUKE, can be considered the same book as LUKE. • H.J. Cadbury’s “THE MAKING OF LUKE AND ACTS”, is so brilliantly worked that it shifted the scholars’ view to consider them one. LUKE’s CONNECTION

  32. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE & ACTS ACTS 1:1-3 The former account I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 until the day in which He was taken up, after

  33. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE & ACTS ACTS 1:1-3 He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen, 3 to whom He also presented Himself alive after

  34. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE & ACTS ACTS 1:1-3 His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.

  35. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION • KEY POINTS: • Luke and his readers have the present day witness of Jesus Christ still alive when the gospel was written so that they could see the infallible proofs of Jesus Christ.

  36. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • Language, style and theology connect the books of LUKE and ACTS. • Theology is a GOOD INDICATOR of considering books of the cannon by the early CHURCH. LUKE’s CONNECTION

  37. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • The prologue indicates that LUKE was not an eye witness to the ministry of JESUS CHRIST but an eye witness of the people who had been radically impacted by JESUS CHRIST. LUKE’s CONNECTION

  38. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • LUKE was an educated man who wrote very good GREEK. • The opening of LUKE is written in the classical style of Greek. The rest of the two chapters have a strong Semitic cast. LUKE’s CONNECTION

  39. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • The rest of LUKE was written in strong HELLENISTIC Greek that constantly reminds the reader of the SEPTUAGINT – Greek Old Testament. LUKE’s CONNECTION

  40. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • The last half of the book of Acts contains a lot of “we” passages and written in the first person, Luke being the companion of Paul who was pounded down by Jesus on the road to Damascus. LUKE’s CONNECTION

  41. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • What is one very strong hint in one of Jesus’ healings that LUKE was a doctor? • Luke calls the fever of Peter’s mother-in-law a “HIGH FEVER”, whereas Mark 1:30 and Matt. 8:14 only call it a FEVER. LUKE’s SECRETS

  42. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • Early Church father “TERTULLIAN” calls LUKE “a summary of Paul’s gospel…” • TERTULLIAN, originally from Carthage, was a pagan who converted to Christianity in A.D. 197. LUKE’s SECRETS

  43. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • TERTULLIAN lived from A.D.160-225. • He was trained in the law and was one of the foremost Christian apologists of his day. • He was a vigorous opponent of Gnosticism. LUKE’s SECRETS

  44. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • TERTULLIAN in his “APOLOGY” argued that Christianity should not be seen as a threat to the state. • His AGAINST PRAXEAS presents an early exposition of the Trinity. LUKE’s SECRETS

  45. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATIONS • TERTULLIAN was a strong promoter as SCRIPTURE ALONE to develop one’s RIGHT and RIGHTEOUS theology. • TERTULLIAN saw ACTS and LUKE as one book, written by the companion of Paul. LUKE’s SECRETS

  46. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s UNIQUE P.O.V. LUKE 5:1-11 So it was, as the multitude pressed about Him to hear the word of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret,

  47. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s UNIQUE P.O.V. LUKE 5:1-11 2and saw two boats standing by the lake; but the fishermen had gone from them and were washing their nets. 3 Then He got into one of the boats, which was

  48. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s UNIQUE P.O.V. LUKE 5:1-11 Simon’s, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat. 4 When He had stopped

  49. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s UNIQUE P.O.V. LUKE 5:1-11 speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”5But Simon answered and said to Him,

  50. New TESTAMENT FOUNDATION LUKE’s UNIQUE P.O.V. LUKE 5:1-11 “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.” 6 And when they had done this,
