Each and every synoptic gospels’ purpose is to deliver the message that our Savior, Jesus Christ,
had been born from Mother Mary and the salvation of humans from sins till Jesus’ rising but how
Luke’s gospel is written is distinct from other synoptic gospels. The gospel of Luke is unique and is

Luke’s structure and direction is called a Travel Narrative. Luke portrays the time of Jesus’
ministry as a carefully planned journey that eventually ends with the narrative of the Triumphal Entry
in Jerusalem. In order to show that Jesus and his disciples followed a clear and concise route, Luke

narrative. One way Luke accomplishes this is by expanding the Galilee section of Jesus’ travels. To
do this Luke had to rearrange certain stories such as the confession at Caesarea Philippi.
