Product Description
This work by R.T. France is not intended to be a guide to all that has been written in recent years about Matthew. Rather, it is an extended introduction to Matthew designed for a non-specialist readership. France concentrates on those areas he finds most interesting and important for the appreciation of Matthew, but he does touch on most major areas of discussion in Matthean studies. Among other things, France covers Matthew's place in the life of the church, the order of the Gospels, Matthew in the post-apostolic church, reasons for Matthew's preeminence, Matthew in the modern church, and literary relationships and the order of composition of the Gospels.
Customer Reviews
Hard to express how excellent this book is. The book explores all the background issues to Matthew that one typically finds in a thorough scholarly Commentary, but because it is a separate volume, the treatment here is even more complete than found even in those commentaries. The author is one of the leading conservative scholars on Matthew, and maybe the very best of that group. The prose is clear and engaging. The research and analysis is simply top notch, balanced, thoughful, fair, and well rounded. Any serious study of the Gospel of Matthew should start here, especially if one is coming at it from a more conservative or evangelical perspective. Highly recommend.
