Watch in 720 or 1080p.  Finishing prelim VETTING the meter for historical meaning, Again, this series is about vetting methodology.

For Bible is self-auditing, but you must TEST what you think it means, to see how it 'answers' audit queries. 

BTW Possibly the 666 in Rev 13:18, tags Luke's METER here.  I'll have to parse Rev 13, to find out.  Or you can.

Again, this is Luke's 'bracketing' rhetorical style (which he uses pan-Gospel); here, to more demonstrate the Chap 21 'sandwich' upon Matt24. 

Like all other Bible writers, Luke surgically wraps his text, as I showed in the Synoptics series (both here and in Youtube), some years back.  Here, we'll see how he matches the SYLLABLE COUNTS in Matt24, again demonstrating that Matthew is the first Gospel.  For Luke starts his syllable counting at Matt24:1, but doesn't say the same things in the same order.  This is a rhetorical device called 'interpretative quoting', where you ADD information or ELABORATE on information the reader is already presumed to know.

For Luke builds his Gospel outline itself, around the METER of Mary's Magnificat.  I did videos showing this in vimeo, starting here: https://vimeo.com/channels/lukemeter/93503483

Master list of Luke's technique and the syllable-counting style, is in http://www.brainout.net/LukeDatelineMeters.pdf .  If you don't need to see the Greek font, you can substitute 'htm' with 'pdf'.  Download the Greek fonts from http://www.bibleworks/fonts.html .

So to 'sandwich' Matt24, Luke also plays with the SYLLABLE counts, deliberately matching at certain junctures, then concatenating in other places.  To make, a CHURCH timeline, versus the WORLD Timeline Christ originally made.  To UPDATE the timeline for CHURCH.  Paul, who wrote Eph1:3-14 the same time, had provided even more detail, but only for the first 434 years.

If you don't need to view the Greek, the online copy is http://www.brainout.net/Ephesians1REPARSED.htm .  You need Bibleworks fonts to view the Greek, obtainable here: http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.html .  The htm copy is funky in places, due to format problems for htm's.

Vimeo videos on Paul's meter are most helpful (the Youtube counterparts are harder to watch in order): http://vimeo.com/channels/paulmeterggs11 .  The same links to the same Eph1 docs are in their vid descriptions, but the Matt24 meter wasn't known when I did those Eph videos 5 years prior.

Again, at this stage in the playlist, we are still working with Anonynomenon's original draft of the meter, http://brainout.net/frankforum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=512
He's doing a separate timeline from what I'm saying, and I don't know how much our results agree.  Not trying to 'fit' his, nor he 'mine'.

The Luke thread is here: http://brainout.net/frankforum/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=521  .  Feel free to join and chime in (no real name or email or other id needed or desired, and you are NOT tracked).  You will find the Luke docs there.  I've not had to change them, yet.

Might be faster to download them here:

http://www.brainout.net/Luke21Meter.pdf and for easiest comparison,
http://www.brainout.net/Matt24-25ParsedR4.pdf which uses the same formatting.  Even if you cannot read the Greek, track the NUMBERS, which are the syllable counts.  That Matt24 piece is a revision versus Anonynomenon, and will be covered in later videos.

Next in the series, will be about the anaphora usage as a CAUSALITY LINKER in Matt24-25, which Luke deliberately OMITS here.  Paul used anaphora the same way though, in Ephesians, which was published the same year as Luke: due to Paul going to JAIL. The meter has been revised, now, post 1673.  Later versions which will be covered in videos later on, are
