Why are there books of the Old Testament missing from the Protestant Bible?
A:The split between Christianity and Judaism occurred before the Jews had decided on which scriptures would form the canon of the Hebrew Bible.

That's where you'll find the Book of Luke (the third book of the Greek Scriptures, near the back of the Bible--Matthew, Mark, LUKE, John....), look for Chapter 10 (that's the large number) and verses 30-37(small numbers).
