Luke 1:1-26 ESV

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Luke 1:5-25

Chapter 2THE MUTE PRIEST. Luke 1:5-25; Luke 1:57-80.AFTER his personal prelude, our Evangelist goes on to give in detail the pre-Advent revelations, so connecting the thread of his narrative with the broken-off thread of the Old Testament.

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Luke 1:25-42

Geneva Study Bible - Luke 1:1

1:1 Forasmuch as {1} many have {a} taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,(1) Luke commends the witnesses that saw this present account.(a) Many took it in hand, but did not perform: Luke wrote his gospel before Matthew and Mark. read more

1:2 {b} Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;(b) Luke was not any eye witness, and therefore it was not he to whom the Lord appeared when Cleopas saw him: and he was taught not only by Paul, but by others of the apostles also. read more
