NT Book Study: Matthew
This course presents an approach to the study of Matthew’s Gospel, with an emphasis on literary analysis, intertextuality and the Jewish Scriptures, theological reflection, and integration to life and ministry. We seek to grasp the basic content and message of this Gospel, to discern Matthew’s emphases in comparison with the other Synoptics and John, and especially to probe deeply his witness to Jesus, so that we might understand and live the gospel calling of Jesus more effectively.
There are no prerequisites for this course. In order to benefit the most, however, it is recommended that you take NT Foundations (BIBL 502) and Biblical Exegesis (BIBL 503) prior to this course.
