Luke

In this first book in Roland Meynet's commentary on the Gospel of Luke, the author begins with the announcement of the birth of Saint John the Baptist, the Precursor, and goes through the temptations of Jesus in the desert, just before he begins his ministry of teaching and healing. The volume parallels Jesus with John the Baptist. In a profound way, it shows how the coming of Jesus was prepared for and announced by the Scriptures, especially by the prophets until John.
