Contributions
Sources of the Gospel according to Luke
MacLean Gilmour proposed various theories about the sources that were used in the Gospel According to Luke.[5] [6] Gilmour "argued against Streeter and Taylor that Q+L constituted a complete Gospel and formed the structure upon which Luke the Evangelist composed his own Gospel."[1] Gilmour added that even when Luke made Mark the basis of his own Gospel, in The passion narrative reviewed that material of his own Gospel and enriched it "with material of his own composition".[1] Analyzing Gilmour's proposals and his antithesis, Xavier Léon-Dufour evaluated Gilmour's hypothesis as "brilliant among the criticism".[1]
