Other scholars argue that Judas acted in obedience to God's will. [83] The gospels suggest that Judas is apparently bound up with the fulfillment of God's purposes (John 13:18, John 17:12, Matthew 26:23–25, Luke 22:21–22, Matt 27:9–10, Acts 1:16, Acts 1:20), [74] yet "woe is upon him", and he would "have been better unborn" (Matthew 26:23 ...

Many scholars believe that Luke was a physician who lived in the Hellenistic city of Antioch in Ancient Syria, [c] born of a Greek family, [7] [8] [9] although some scholars and theologians think Luke was a Hellenic Jew. [10] [11] While it has been widely accepted that the theology of Luke–Acts points to a gentile Christian writing for a ...

It appears in two of the canonical gospels of the New Testament and a version of the parable also occurs in the non-canonical Gospel of Thomas (96).
