Matthew 1-7: Continental Commentary Series [CCS]

This commentary by Ulrich Luz, undertakes to draw lines to the present and to inquire, for example, about the implications of the Sermon on the Mount for the question of peace or the question of the form of the church. A great help in this regard is the treatment of the history of the influence of each pericope; this shows not only how Catholic or Protestant Christians have been molded by the biblical text but also where we might find correctives for our faith and life.
