Vinson provides a commentary designed not only for pastors, professors and lay Bible study teachers, but for anyone interested in their own personal study of the Bible. Following Luke through Jesus' life and death, Vinson probes theological matters while providing application for everyday life. What makes Luke ideally suited for contemporary American Christians is likely what also leads it to be ignored: The Gospel's counter-cultural message can be difficult for modern-day believers to hear.
