Luke was said to have been a Greek physician (see Col 4:14) who accompanied [[Paul]] and also wrote the [[Acts (of the Apostles)|Acts of the Apostles]] describing the arrival of the [[Holy Spirit]].  Unlike the Gospels of Matthew and John, written as firsthand accounts, the Gospel of Luke records eyewitness accounts of others, much as a doctor asks a patient for his medical history and then writes it down in the medical file.  Due to Luke's professional nature, his Gospel is very comprehensive about Jesus' life and [[resurrection]], and it also conveys the great sense of [[joy]] that Jesus' family, friends and followers felt.

Another theory is that Mark was the source for the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, as Mark uses [[Jesus]]'s native [[Aramaic]] and unpolished [[Greek]] while the other Gospels are more refined and translate the Aramaic into Greek.
