Luke 1:3 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 1:3

Dedication to Theophilus

1 Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those ^athings which have been fulfilled among us,

2 just as those who ^afrom the beginning were ^beyewitnesses and ministers of the word ^cdelivered them to us,

3 it seemed good to me also, having¹ had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, ^amost excellent Theophilus,

4 ^athat you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed.

John’s Birth Announced to Zacharias

5 There was ^ain the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, ^bof the division of ^cAbijah. His ^dwife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
