Synopsis

It is to Luke that we are indebted for a glimpse into the background circumstances surrounding the birth of John the Baptist and the Lord Jesus Christ. We catch a glimpse of Zacharias, a devoted priest and his wife Elizabeth who was barren. We are told of the visitation of an angel predicting, against all odds that his wife would bear a son. This was no ordinary child but John, called the Baptist who heralded the arrival of the Lord Jesus.

We catch a glimpse of the circumstances surrounding the birth of Jesus and of Mary's visit to Elizabeth in the sixth month of her pregnancy. In this first chapter we catch a glimpse of angelic intervention in the normal affairs of men and women. Throughout this book, the Lord Jesus is referred to as the Son of Man and emphasizes the humanity of Jesus.

The idea of this book is to point the reader to what the Scriptures actually say. For an individual reading I would encourage the individual to read the relevant chapter in the Bible first, then, look at the commentary and answer the questions at the end of each chapter.

In a group Bible Study setting, the relevant chapter of the Bible could be read, each person reading a few verses at a time until the whole chapter in the Bible has been read. This could also apply individually as well. Look at what the Bible actually says, and meditate on each chapter thus increasing your knowledge of God's word and being inspired and encouraged by it.
