Description

This fresh look at the Gospel of Matthew highlights the unique contribution that Matthew's rich and multilayered portrait of Jesus makes to understanding the connection between the Old and New Testaments. Patrick Schreiner argues that Matthew obeyed the Great Commission by acting as scribe to his teacher Jesus in order to share Jesus's life and work with the world, thereby making disciples of future generations.

Advance Praise

“With Schreiner’s Matthew, Disciple and Scribe I have found a new favorite book on the Gospel of Matthew and a new required course text for my classes on the Synoptic Gospels. Both old and new insights abound in Schreiner’s fresh reading of Matthew, setting forth a powerful portrait of Jesus as the wise, righteous, merciful king; the new Moses who leads his people to saving freedom through his death; and the one who brings Abraham’s blessing to all the nations.”—Josuha Jipp, associate professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

“Does Scripture portray how to be a disciple of Jesus and a student-scholar? By unfolding Matthew’s vision of the discipled scribe, Patrick Schreiner shows how Jesus and Matthew bring forth gems both ancient and fresh. Come, sit at the feet of these master teachers.”—Matthew W. Bates, associate professor of theology, Quincy University; author of Salvation by Allegiance Alone
