Luke is generally believed to have been written in the 70's or 80's, but it is also possible it was written in the late 50's or early 60's based upon the abrupt ending in Acts. The thinking goes why wouldn't Luke have continued the history in Acts if he had written it later?  And why wouldn't he have mentioned the [[martyr|martyrdom]] of [[Paul]]?

Therefore, Luke wouldn't have known Jesus firsthand, and like the children's game "Telephone", rumors of Jesus' actions and words would have been heavily distorted decades after his death.
