"Expositions of Holy Scripture: St. Luke" by Alexander Maclaren is a theological commentary written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the Gospel of Luke, offering in-depth analysis and interpretation of its passages and themes to illuminate their religious significance and application for contemporary Christian living. At the start of this exposition, Maclaren sets the stage for exploring the life and ministry surrounding the birth of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ, reflecting on pivotal events that are rich with theological implications. In the opening section, he discusses Zacharias and Elizabeth, who are described as blameless yet childless, leading to divine intervention that heralds the birth of John. Maclaren examines the angel Gabriel's visitation, emphasizing the profound significance of John's role as a forerunner to Christ, aligning him with the prophetic tradition. Through these reflections, the exposition aims to deepen readers' understanding of the interconnectedness of Old and New Testament themes, the characteristics of true greatness as exemplified by John, and the rich tapestry of divine promise that unfolds through Luke’s narrative.
