In this concluding volume of Hagner's commentary, he reminds modern readers of the historical setting in which Matthew's gospel was first read. He seeks to place in perspective polemical aspects of the Gospel, particularly with respect to early Judaism, so that they are not misunderstood by Christians today. Hagner also presents an analysis of Matthew's treatment of his sources for the story of Jesus--the Gospel of Mark and the document known as Q. Includes: -A fresh translation of the Gospel based on the latest critical Greek text;-Thorough and up-to-date bibliographies of scholarship on each pericope;-Verse-by-verse comment providing historical and cultural insights and interacting with the most important scholarly literature.
