Truth Commentary Series - New Edition by Kyle Pope The Gospel of Matthew, like no other gospel, offers to the reader a unique introduction to Jesus Christ. He is presented as the Messiah, in fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy (1:1, 17, 22-23). He is set forth as the new Lawgiver proclaiming His word to the people from a new Sinai (5:1-7:29). He is Immanuel - "God with us" (1:23), exercising power over disease (4:24), the forces of nature (8:23-27), and even death (8:18-26). This commentary on the wonderful gospel according to Matthew is the first volume in the New Testament portion of the Truth Commentaries Series . It offers a verse-by-verse analysis of the gospel, an introduction to the themes and structure of the text, and an appendix considering the issue of redefining marriage from a historical perspective. Hardback Edition.
