Shi Rich Shields_600x800The Gospel of Matthew has often been considered the most foundational account of the life of Jesus. In this course, the student learns the background and context of Matthew’s writing. Attention is paid to the author’s consistent use of patterns and narratives of the Old Testament which structure his narrative around Jesus as the fulfillment of all Old Covenant promises. The student is also equipped to apply the lessons of Matthew’s Gospel to the church in the present age.

Prerequisite: Hermeneutics
