“Saint Luke the Evangelist – Painting by Dino Carbetta” …

Luke, one of the Four Evangelists, holds a profound place in the Christian tradition as the author of both the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles. Accounting for over a quarter of its text, more than any other author. He beautifully illustrates the parallel between Christ's life and the Church's. Notably, Luke is the sole Gentile Christian among the Gospel writers. Tradition suggests that he hailed from Antioch and is affectionately referred to as "our beloved physician" by Saint Paul. His Gospel is believed to have been written around 70 A.D. Luke's presence in the Acts of the Apostles is equally significant. In his unwavering faith, Luke stands by Paul through countless journeys, including Rome, Luke remained, attested by Paul himself: "Only Luke is with me" (2 Timothy 4:11). Luke also shares a special connection with the women in Jesus' life, particularly Mary. Only in Luke's gospel do we find the treasured accounts of the Annunciation, Mary's visit to Elizabeth with the Magnificat, the Presentation, and the story of Jesus' disappearance in Jerusalem. Luke's contributions extend to the Scriptural verses of the Hail Mary: "Hail Mary, full of grace," spoken at the Annunciation, and "Blessed are you, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus." Luke is honored as the pioneer of Christian iconography, making him a patron saint of artists, doctors, and medical caregivers. His relics are preserved in the Abbey of Santa Giustina in Padua, Italy. Reading Luke's gospel provides profound insight into his character as someone who had deep compassion for the poor, advocated for the inclusivity of all in God's kingdom, respected and uplifted women, and found hope in God's boundless mercy for all. In his artistry and words, Dino Carbetta gracefully captures the essence of Saint Luke the Evangelist, inspiring all with the profound message of love, compassion, and faith.
