📚 Historical Context
The Gospel of Luke was written by Luke, a physician and companion of the apostle Paul, around 60 AD to a man named Theophilus, who was likely a Roman official or a new believer who had already received some teaching about Jesus. In this verse, Luke explains that his purpose is to provide a reliable and orderly account of the events surrounding Jesus' life, drawing from eyewitness testimonies to confirm and solidify what Theophilus has been taught. This reflects the early Christian emphasis on preserving accurate historical records amid growing oral traditions and potential misunderstandings.
