One of the most beloved books of the New Testament, the Gospel of

Matthew speaks with eloquence and power. Among the Gospels, Matthew paints a fuller

picture of the life, ministry, and teachings of Jesus. Anna Case-Winters’s

incisive commentary reveals that Matthew is clearly a theological book. It is about

God’s saving work in Jesus Christ. Moreover, it is presented in a way that easily

lends itself to the task of teaching and preaching. Case-Winters highlights five

themes that shape the distinctive portrait of Jesus this Gospel offers. Here we see

Jesus facing up to conflict and controversy, ministering at the margins, overturning

presuppositions about insiders and outsiders, privileging the powerless,

demonstrating the authority of ethical leadership, challenging allegiance to empire,

and pointing the way to a wider divine embrace than many dared imagine. Case-Winters

captures the core of Matthew’s unique Gospel, which speaks powerfully to the life

of Christian faith today in the midst of our own issues and struggles.
