This page is an easy place to access the commentaries that I have prepared for the Gospel of Luke. The commentaries below were done more than 10 years ago and were not always well documented, to give authors attribution. At my current parish I have been updating the commentaries for the parish website … and always said I would get around to updating this page … not likely to happen. To view the updated commentaries visit the “Back Porch”

---

The commentaries are arranged by Liturgical Year C order. It is not a complete coverage of the Gospel… but who knows… maybe one day. You are free to download and use for Bible Study, to evangelize, or anything that gives Glory to God. Enjoy.
