Luke, also known as Saint Luke the Evangelist, is believed to be the author of the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles in the Bible. He was one of the four evangelists and is considered a patron saint of artists, physicians, surgeons, and students. Luke's Gospel is known for its focus on mercy, compassion, and the marginalized in society. He is also known for his detailed and skillful storytelling, particularly in his descriptions of Jesus' parables and miracles.
According to tradition, Luke was a physician and a companion of the apostle Paul during his missionary journeys. He is believed to have been a Gentile of Greek origin and is often depicted in Christian art with an ox, symbolizing sacrifice. Luke's feast day is celebrated on October 18th in the Roman Catholic Church and on November 14th in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
