THE GOSPEL OF ST.MATTHEW

The four Gospels, Steiner says, are meant to supplement one another to form a comprehensive picture of earthly and spiritual events. The Matthew Gospel describes Christ Jesus in his human aspects so that he is more near to us in a human sense. From an understanding of the Gospel of St. Matthew "can stream into us courage in life, strength and hope in our labors." These 12 lectures, from the lecture series, The Gospel of Matthew, were published in German as, Das Matthaeus-evangelium. They are presented here with the kind permission of the Rudolf Steiner Nachlassverwaltung, Dornach, Switzerland.
