Was the gospel of Luke historically accurate?

Please provide any actual evidence proving his existence outside of the bible prior to 1961. If you can do that, then i must be wrong in my claim no one outside of belief in the bible writings really believed he existed for sure. Its the absence of proof that supports the conspiracy and thats the same argument against the Exodus.

If you mean extra biblical sources, then Tacitus talks about Pontius Pilate. I don’t know how valid you would consider Flavius and Philo of Alexandra, but they are considered sources as well if I’m not mistaken. I don’t know much about the historical and archaeological evidence for the exodus. Could you give me a run down on the consensus by historians and/or sources dealing with the historicity of the exodus?
