The Gospel of Luke is based on Mark’s gospel, but expanded through careful research. Luke, a doctor who accompanied Paul in part of his travels, interviewed eyewitnesses to the events recorded in the book, including those around John the Baptist and perhaps Mary, the mother of Jesus. He shows much interest in the humanity of Jesus, in women, and in what Jesus said about money. Luke wrote not only this gospel, but also Acts, which records the spread of the message about Jesus from Jerusalem to Rome.
