Acts 1:1 continues and refers to the first letter, which is the Gospel of Luke.
Acts certainly is before 70 AD. It does not refer to it at all, and it ends suddenly at the last journey of Paul, which was in +/- 63 AD.
I'm not surprised that proferssors claim such things. Most 'modern' critics say that the NT was written after 70AD.
This is purely because of 'scientific evidence' of the oldest fragment of manuscripts.
Tradition however and what the letters themselves reveal, tells us something else.
