Loukas identifies a man named Luke, presented among companions, senders of greetings, and fellow workers.

The attested use identifies Luke as a named individual: he is with the speaker in 2 Timothy 4:11, joins in greetings in Colossians 4:14, and is listed among fellow workers in Philemon 1:24.

Senses in use

  1. Personal name in companion and worker lists · dominant

    The nominative singular masculine form identifies the same named individual in three clauses. In 2 Timothy 4:11 the APB renders "Luke alone is with me"; in Colossians 4:14 it includes him among those who "send you greetings," and in Philemon 1:24 it names him among "my fellow workers."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as "Luke" in each verse, placing him respectively with the speaker, among greeting senders, and among fellow workers. These clauses confirm the named individual's contexts rather than supplying a separate lexical rendering.
