A hint on the author of the Acts

[distazo]

Shlama (hello) PM Saunders and
welcome to the forum.
English is my second language and sometimes I may sound weird...lol.
The word "theophilos" can be either name or "the one who loves God" and it
is hard to tell since first manuscripts did not have capital letters or separations between words.
The word is Greek but it may be a well adopted expression among other nations as well.

Personally, I am tired from opinions and theories just like we were fed with opinions
that NT was written in Greek for some forces wanted to impose this opinion but since this
opinion (theory) did not have a solid base but a fake one, so this theory just collapsed.

So, the theory that Luke wrote the Acts is just an opinion.

So far, I do not see a proof that Luke was author of Acts but the fact that interests is that the author was traveling with Paul. And this is solid point to start with.

Well it's based on the wording of the first verses of Acts.
Acts mentions a previous work, which describes all of Yeshu's words and deeds. And it is addressed to the same person.
The use of wording and idiom, also is the same.
So the author is the same.
