The Holy Gospel of JesusChrist, according to st. Luke

ST. LUKE was a native of Antioch, the capital of Syria. He was by profession a physician; and some ancient writers say, that he was very skilful in painting. He was converted by St. Paul; and became his disciple and companion in his travels, and fellow labourer in the ministry of the Gospel. He wrote in Greek, about twenty-four years after our Lord's Ascension.
