Source: The Gospel Coalition
Publisher's Description
Luke’s carefully researched and orderly account of the life of Christ is one of the finest pieces of historical writing from the ancient world. More importantly, it boldly proclaims the story and significance of Jesus, emphasizing his ‘gospel’ as good news for the whole world.
In this illuminating commentary, respected pastor R. Kent Hughes explores Luke’s historical claims about the life of Christ and his overarching message, offering helpful insights into the biblical text and pastoral reflections on how it applies to everyday life.
Written to help preachers and Bible teachers communicate God’s Word more effectively, this commentary explores how the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus constitute the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy and guarantee salvation to all who believe on his name.

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“I’m delighted to endorse the philosophy behind this series. Here sounds out the voice not of the scholar in the study but of the scholar in the pulpit. The authors are all able teachers who regularly expound God’s living Word to his people. May this rich material give us ‘patterns of preaching’ that will not only feed the flock, but, by God’s grace, change the church.”
R. C. Lucas
Retired Rector, St. Helen’s Church, Bishopsgate, London, England
“For this outstanding series of expository commentaries, Kent Hughes has assembled a team of unusually gifted scholar–preachers. The series will be widely used and much sought after.”
Eric J. Alexander
Retired Senior Minister, St. George’s–Tron Parish Church, Glasgow, Scotland
“It is a pleasure to commend this series of homiletical commentaries. They fill an enormous vacuum that exists between the practical needs of the pastor/teacher and the critical exegetical depth of most commentaries.”
Walter C. Kaiser Jr.
President Emeritus and Distinguished Professor of Old Testament and Ethics, Gordon–Conwell Theological Seminary
“Throughout the Christian centuries, working pastors have been proving themselves to be the best of all Bible expositors. Kent Hughes stands in this great tradition, and his exciting expositions uphold it worthily.”
J. I. Packer
Board of Governors’ Professor of Theology, Regent College
“There is a long history of informed, edifying biblical expositions that have been mightily used of God to shape and strengthen the church. These volumes admirably fit this tradition.”
D. A. Carson
Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
“The single best resource for faithful biblical exposition available today. A great boon for genuine reformation!”
Timothy George
Dean, Beeson Divinity School, Samford University
“This series resonates with the priorities of the pulpit. No academic aloofness here, but down–to–earth, preacher–to–preacher meat for God’s people.”
Bryan Chapell
Senior Pastor, Grace Presbyterian Church (PCA), Peoria, IL
