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.
