A:The switch to the use of the first person in this chapter has led some earlier scholars to wonder whether this material was actually written by a companion of Paul. It was no doubt taken into account by the Church Fathers of the second century when they decided to attribute the third gospel and Acts of the Apostles to Luke, a sometimes companion of Paul.

Modern scholars not only do not accept the attribution to Luke, but place the date of authorship too late for this chapter to have been written by Luke or any other companion of Paul. Sometimes it does happen that an author changes from the third person to the first person and back, and we are left to speculate why. The Book of Daniel is another example of this, yet it was either written entirely by Daniel (as conservative Christians believe) or entirely by a much later author (as historians and biblical scholars believe).
