Title I, Lukas, Wrote the Book Author Donald R. Fletcher Synopsis What was it like, in the Greco-Roman world of the late first century, to sit down to write a gospel, specifically, the Gospel According to Luke? Extensive scholarship has recently been focusing on Luke/Acts, the two-volume New Testament writing. This book uses such scholarship, but in an imaginative way. It sets out to follow Lukas, the author, through the whole process of writing his first part, the gospel. We are given, paragraph by paragraph, the complete gospel text in a vigorous translation, but interspersed with Lukas' own human contacts and vivid experiences as he composes it. Biography Donald R. Fletcher grew up in pre-WWII Korea, earned degrees in English and theology at Princeton, and has lived and worked in Chile, Mexico and the Caribbean, as well as the southwest, south and east of the U.S.. He has taught at high school, college and university levels and served extensively in Presbyterian and ecumenical churches. Always eager to learn as well as teach, he has spent a lifetime with the Biblical writings and particularly the first three Gospels.
