The Gospel of Matthew: The King and His Kingdom Matthew 1-17

The Gospel of Matthew: The King and His Kingdom Matthew 1-17 by Boice, James Montgomery. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780801012013.

The Gospel of Matthew, said James Montgomery Boice, is "the first of the gospels, the longest, the most Jewish, the most evangelistic, and, in many ways, the most compelling. To some people, now as well as then, Matthew is the most important book ever written." This two-volume expositional commentary on one of the Bibles most powerful books integrates rigorous scholarship and clear communication. Boice not only explains the meaning of the text verse by verse and section by section, he relates the texts concerns to the world in which we live, the life of the church, and the realities of the Christian life. Based on messages preached at Philadelphias world-renowned Tenth Presbyterian Church, The Gospel of Matthew displays Dr. Boices hallmark blend of thoughtful interpretation and contemporary insight for daily living. It will appeal to a wide range of readers, from serious Bible students to interested laypersons.
