The World English Bible (WEB): Luke by Anonymous
"The World English Bible (WEB): Luke" by Anonymous is a biblical text that presents the Gospel of Luke, likely composed in the early first century. This gospel recounts the life, teachings, and miracles of Jesus Christ, focusing on themes of compassion and social justice. It features significant characters such as Mary, the mother of Jesus, and John the Baptist, as well as various parables and events that illustrate Jesus' ministry. At the
start of "The World English Bible (WEB): Luke," the narrative begins with an introduction to the author’s purpose, addressing a figure named Theophilus to affirm the certainty of the events conveyed. It introduces Zacharias, a priest, and his wife Elizabeth, who, despite their old age, will have a son named John, heralding significant emotions and divine intervention. The opening chapters also detail the Annunciation to Mary by the angel Gabriel, who tells her that she will conceive the Son of God. Additionally, there are accounts of Mary's visit to Elizabeth, the birth of John the Baptist, and the nativity of Jesus. This foundational portion sets the stage for understanding the divine nature of Jesus and the transformative impact of his life and message. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
