A:Paul apparently had a companion called Luke, who was a physician. Whether he was actually Greek or was from another part of the Greek-speaking world is hard to establish for certain. The second-century Church Fathers attributed Luke with writing the third New Testament gospel, which had until then been anonymous, but this attribution is unlikely to be correct.

So: Luke was a doctor; he might have been a Greek doctor; but he did not write a gospel.

Gospel of Luke written by a Jew?

We do not know the name of the anonymous author who wrote the Gospel later attributed to the apostle Luke. What we do know is that he wrote his Gospel in Greek Koine, the lingua francaof the Near East, and seems to have been familiar with the art of Greek rhetoric. He was familiar with the Jewish scriptures and also the works of the Jewish historian, Josephus. None of this points conclusively to 'Luke' being either Jewish or Greek, except that he is unlikely to have been a Palestinian Jew. At the time Luke's Gospel was written, around the end of the first century, most Christians would have been Gentiles, so it is quite likely that the author of Luke was also Gentile.
