The Greek New Testament

The New Testament in the original Greek. The text revised by Brooke Foss Westcott, D.D., and Fenton John Anthony Hort, D.D. New York. Harper & Brothers, Franklin Square (1885).

Brooke Foss Westcott (1825–1901) and Fenton John Anthony Hort (1828–1892) were prominent 19th-century British biblical scholars and theologians renowned for their groundbreaking contributions to New Testament textual criticism. Together, they collaborated over 28 years to produce The New Testament in the Original Greek, a critical edition first published in two volumes in 1881 and 1882, which sought to reconstruct the earliest attainable form of the Greek text based on rigorous manuscript analysis.

The New Testament (Ἡ Καινὴ Διαθήκη) is the second principal division of the Christian Bible, consisting of 27 books composed primarily in Koine Greek between approximately AD 50 and AD 150, which serve as the foundational scriptures for Christianity alongside the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament).

The Gospel According to Luke

The Gospel of Luke (Κατά Λουκάν Ευαγγέλιον) is the third of the four canonical gospels in the New Testament, presenting a carefully composed narrative of the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ as the fulfillment of God's promises to Israel and the world. It forms the first volume of a unified two-part work, Luke-Acts, written by the same author and addressed to "most excellent Theophilus" to provide an orderly account of events based on eyewitness traditions and careful investigation. The gospel emphasizes Jesus' identity as the Messiah who brings good news especially to the poor, marginalized, and outsiders, portraying the Kingdom of God as an "upside-down" reversal of human values, power, and status.
