It appears that Luke was not Jewish, however scholars now say that he wrote none of the books in The Bible. He is traditionally credited with writing the gospel that now bears his name, as well as Acts of the Apostles. However, these books were originally anonymous and were only attributed by the Church Fathers to Luke later in the second century. The main reason for that attribution seems to have been the polished Greek language used, and Luke was the only apostle they knew of with the necessary education. Naturally they assumed that these books were written around the middle of the first century, within the lifetime of Luke, but scholars now say that they were actually written at the end of the century or early in the second century.
We do not know who really wrote Luke's Gospel, so we do not know whether or not he was Jewish. Since we also do not know who wrote any of the other gospels, we can not say how many were written by Jews or non-Jews.
In the New King James it appears only twice: Luke 22:59 and Acts 25:19 both of which are attributed to the writer Luke.
There is only one 'Annunciation of the Lord' in the Bible found in Luke 1:26.

A:Two parables that are unique to Luke are the parable of the Prodigal Son and the parable of the Good Samaritan. Although Luke has the only gospel version, we can not say with certainty that Luke wrote these stories, in the sense of actually creating them.
The Bible only mentions the shepherds visiting Mary, Joseph and Jesus in the stable. They were invited by the angels.(Luke 2:8-20)
The Gospel of Luke is a biographical account of Jesus that was specifically attuned to the Greek mindset of the first-century world. In fact, Luke (also the author of Acts of the Apostles) is the only Gentile among all the Bible writers.
No, there are only 4 gospels: Gospel of Matthew Gospel of Mark Gospel of Luke Gospel of John
Anna is only mentioned in Luke 2.36 as a prophetess who spoke of Jesus in the temple when he was a babe. There is no other mention in the Bible of Anna, and none of Ajar.
