Excerpt from The Medical Language of St. Luke: A Proof From Internal Evidence That
HE words and phrases cited in this work are either peculiar to the third Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles, or else, though not peculiar to them, are for the most part more frequently employed in these writings than in those of the other N. T. Authors.
The extant Greek medical writers from whom the examples of the medical use of such words are taken are Hippocrates, B. C. 460 - 357; Aretaeus, who lived in the first century after Christ, probably in the reign of Nero or Vespasian; Galen, a.d. 130 - 200; and Dioscorides, who lived in the first or second century of the Christian era.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores a lexical and linguistic angle to the study of medicine and healing in the book of Luke and in the book of Acts. The book examines the vocabulary used to discuss various afflictions and treatments in the texts. The relationship between the language used by the author of these texts and the language used by physicians of the time is carefully considered. The author of this book demonstrates familiarity with medical terminology through anecdotes and examples that add depth to the analysis. Relating language to treatment, the book examines not only those words and phrases that describe cures and healing, but also those which point to medical affliction.
