Matthew: Introduction And Intertestamental Age
Who was Matthew? What is the Book of Matthew all about?
In Part 1 of our new study, we will introduce this Gospel and talk about the audience that it was originally written to – the Israelites. While Matthew contains truth and wisdom for all people, it was intended to explain the person and work of Jesus to Matthew’s Jewish contemporaries.In addition to introducing the Book of Matthew, we’ll also talk about the ‘intertestamental age’ that preceded its writing.
Questions That We’ll Answer:
A) Why was God ‘silent’ for over 400 years?
B) What differentiates Matthew from the other Gospel accounts?
C) Why are there two different genealogies (in Matthew and Luke)?
