Luke was just one of the gospel writers and he wrote of Jesus as the Son of man, emphasising the human aspects of his character and work. For this reason he was the only one to trace the genealogy of Jesus from the first man to prove that he was a human being of Adam’s race, as are we all (Luke 3). This was most important in the purpose of God for Jesus had to endure the same temptations as those for whom he died. Luke was a physician and he used medical words and terms in his writing which give a sympathetic feel to his record.
