Since many have undertaken to set in order a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us,
AUTHOR: The two books attributed to Luke (Luke and Acts) make up about 28% of the Greek New Testament. Luke, the "beloved physician" and the traveling companion of the apostle Paul, is not mentioned by name in either book. The only places where his name occurs in the New Testament are in Colossians 4:14; 2 Timothy 4:11; and Philemon 1:24. Luke also referred to himself directly in the "we" sections of Acts (Acts 16:10-17; Acts 20:5-21; Acts 27:1 - Acts 28:16). Just when he became a Christian is unknown. See the RSV on 2Cor. 8:18, is this a refernce to Luke?
