Download or read book Matthew s Story of Jesus written by Richard Alan Edwards and published by Augsburg Fortress Publishing. This book was released on 1985 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard A. Edwards here tells Matthew's story of Jesus by using the insights of a contemporary literary-critical method called narrative analysis (or reader-response criticism). He treats the Gospel of Matthew as a distinct narrative, a story, rather than an essay in story form. Special attention is given to the reader, and to the way in which the narrator guides or influences the reader's understanding of the characters, their relation to one another, and their own development as participants in the plot. This is a companion volume to Mark's Story of Jesus, Luke's Story of Jesus, and John's Story of Jesus. - Back cover.

Book excerpt: This fresh look at the Gospel of Matthew highlights the unique contribution that Matthew's rich and multilayered portrait of Jesus makes to understanding the connection between the Old and New Testaments.

Download or read book Matthew The Teacher s Gospel written by Paul S. Minear and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-09-08 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Most studies of Matthew have been oriented toward a recovery of the portrait of Jesus or toward strengthening faith in him in our time. I have chosen a different orientation. The focus of my attention is on the work of the Evangelist as a teacher and on his intended audience in the churches of the first century--men and women who, like many of us, were charged with basic educational work among adult believers in Jesus Christ. I hope that such an orientation may strengthen your sense of kinship both with the Evangelist, who was a teacher, and with his first readers, who also were teachers." From the Preface This insightful commentary on the Gospel of Matthew will help readers better understand the importance of this book of the New Testament. Paul S. Minear focuses on Matthew as a teacher in the early Christian church, assesses Matthew's impact on Christians in the first century, and examines the fascinating array of literary forms found in this Gospel. Throughout, the book aims at increasing comprehension of the distinctive and constructive theological stance of Matthew.
