Commentary on Luke's Gospel: A Pastoral Commentary on the Gospel According to Luke (Dr. Zach Terry Commentary Series)

The Gospel of Luke is Scripture’s most expansive portrait of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ—rich with historical detail, saturated with eyewitness testimony, and laser-focused on the grace of God toward outsiders, skeptics, and sinners. In this commentary, pastor and teacher Zach Terry walks carefully through Luke’s Gospel, bringing decades of preaching experience to bear on one of the most beloved books of the Bible.

Drawn from a full expositional sermon series and then refined for print, this volume combines pastoral warmth with doctrinal clarity. Each passage is explained in plain language, with attention to Luke’s themes, first-century context, literary structure, and theological intent. Yet the heartbeat of the commentary remains the same as the Gospel itself: to present the Lord Jesus Christ in all His compassion, authority, and saving power.

Readers will find:

• A clear, verse-by-verse exposition of the entire Gospel

• Pastoral insight shaped in the local church, applied to real life and real people

• Historical and cultural background that illuminates the text without overwhelming it

• Christ-centered themes consistently developed across Luke’s narratives, teachings, and parables

• Application that is timeless, rooted in Scripture rather than modern trends

• A faithful, conservative interpretation that honors the authority and unity of God’s Word

Whether you are a pastor preparing sermons, a student of Scripture looking for depth, or a believer who simply wants to know Jesus better, this commentary will help you read Luke’s Gospel with fresh eyes and renewed confidence.

From the manger in Bethlehem to the ascension outside Jerusalem, Luke invites us to behold the Savior who came “to seek and to save the lost.” This commentary is written to help you see Him more clearly—and follow Him more faithfully.
