Re:Luke. He was a good historian because he wrote about his contemporary time? Lolwut? HDCase 11:16, 30 October 2008 (EDT)
- Writing about the time that one knows is not a guarantee of being accurate.
- Many have disputed that the Bible was accurate, so Luke's accuracy is a valid point to make.
- Most if not all of the Bible was written by contemporaries. So you'd agree that the entire Bible is accurate? (I do).

Is this article more about Biblical inerrancy, as opposed to accuracy? I think so, but maybe there's something here that's too subtle for me. Wouldn't be the first time! -- Martib 22:51, 30 October 2008 (EDT)
- Inerrancy is the theological concept that they Bible must be without error, being God's revelation.
- This article is about the evidence that the Bible is a very accurate historical record.
- Does that clarify it for you?
