Matthew (Paideia: Commentaries on the New Testament)

In this fresh commentary, leading New Testament scholar Charles Talbert examines cultural context and theological meaning in Matthew. This commentary approaches each text in its final, canonical form, proceeding by sense units rather than word-by-word or verse-by-verse. Each sense unit is explored in three sections: introductory matters, tracing the train of thought, and key hermeneutical and theological questions. Students, pastors, and other readers will also appreciate the historical, literary, and theological insight offered in this practical commentary.
