BIBL 551

The Gospel of Matthew

This course presents an approach to the study of Matthew’s Gospel, with an emphasis on literary analysis, intertextuality vis-à-vis 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 vis-à-vis the other Synoptics, and especially to probe deeply his witness to Jesus, so that we might understand and live the gospel calling of Jesus more effectively.
