Description

The Gospel of Matthew: Matthew 1-13 by Walter T. Wilson is a two-volume commentary that offers a compelling interpretation of the first book of the New Testament. Wilson frames Matthew's Gospel as a catechetical work, intended to shape the commitments and identity of a particular group of disaffected Jewish followers of Jesus in the late first century CE. Through meticulous engagement with the Greek text of the Gospel, as well as relevant primary sources and secondary literature, Wilson provides insight into the theological orientation, genre, and literary features of Matthew. The commentary offers thorough analysis of each passage, exploring topics such as morality, liturgy, mission, group discipline, and eschatology. Scholars, students, pastors, and readers interested in understanding what makes the Gospel of Matthew distinctive among the Synoptics will appreciate Wilson's deep contextualization of the text.
