As we continue to work through the gospel narratives, this week Brent and Trent discuss Luke's account. As a third party writer, Luke collected writings and oral traditions from first-hand eye witnesses of Jesus as he wrote his two volume gift to his friend Theophilus. Although there are several unique contributions Luke provides to the New Testament, this week readers will see Jesus claim himself as the fulfillment of what God promised in the Old Testament. One specific instance of this claim found in Luke is when Jesus institutes the Lord's Supper, the "new covenant" meal, drawing back to the prophesy of Jeremiah 31. The other, also unique to Luke, is found in chapter 24 as Jesus dialogues with two travelers on their way to Emmaus. Join Brent and Trent in this episode as they discuss Jesus' understanding and fulfillment of the Old Testament in the book of Luke.
