The Gospel of Matthew (Crowning of the King) by G. Steve Kinnard (2004-05-03)

The Gospel of Matthew: The Crowning of the King. Matthew is the first Gospel, in fact the first book, in our New Testament. Because of this, Matthew is often the first book of the New Testament that many read, and it is the first introduction to the life of Jesus for many people. This in and of itself makes Matthew an important book and one that we should study. G. Steve Kinnard has written a commentary on Matthew that is scholarly in approach, yet practical in scope. Steve began his study of Matthew by translating the Gospel from Greek into English. From that beginning, he helps the reader understand the cultural setting of the Gospels and hoe that helps us correctly understand the text. He describes the historical, geographical, and cultural background of Matthew.
