Welcome to the Matthew Commentary
This commentary covers the Gospel According to Matthew.
I consider that Matthew was the first book of the New Testament to be written and that it was an important foundation for the Early Church. In addition, it contains many of Jesus' teachings and presents them in a highly organized manner. At the same time, it was written to Jews and it can be a bit hard to understand without some explanation. The commentary assumes that you don't know much about either Matthew or first century Jews, so it contains a lot of background information.
