Did Luke Borrow From Josephus? Historians Finally Weigh In | Dr. Steve Mason

Did the author of Luke-Acts use the writings of the Jewish historian Josephus? In this fascinating discussion, historian Steve Mason examines some of the strongest literary parallels between Luke-Acts and Josephus, arguing that the similarities go far beyond coincidence. Topics include: • Judas the Galilean • Theudas • The Egyptian Prophet • Quirinius and the Census • Lysanias of Abilene • Gamaliel's speech • Ancient literary borrowing • Dating the Gospel of Luke • Historical methodology • Luke-Acts and Josephus If Luke relied on Josephus, the implications are enormous. It would suggest that Luke-Acts was written after Josephus' Antiquities (around AD 93–94), challenging traditional assumptions about the dating of the New Testament.
