This work focuses on the Gospel according to Luke, emphasizing its literary beauty, the grandeur of its themes, and the significant events surrounding the life and ministry of Jesus Christ.

The opening of this exposition introduces the elegance of Luke's writing and the foundational context of the Gospel.
