<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Presents Matthew as a scribe who wrote about Jesus's life in a rich, multilayered way and shows the unique contribution the First Gospel makes to understanding the connection between the Old and New Testaments.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>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. The First Gospel presents Jesus's life as the fulfillment of the Old Testament story of Israel and shows how Jesus brings new life in the New Testament.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>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.<br/><br/>"With Schreiner's <i>Matthew, Disciple and Scribe</i> 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."<br/>--<b>Joshua W. Jipp</b>, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School<br/><br/>"By combining thoughtful research on what it means for Matthew to be a disciple of Teacher Jesus with the intertextual theology of Matthew's text, Patrick Schreiner has provided a rich exploration of Matthew's message."<br/>--<b>Jonathan T. Pennington</b>, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary<br/><br/>"Readers of the Bible often recognize the role the Gospels play as the bridge between old and new in Scripture. Schreiner gives the First Gospel special attention as he convincingly argues that Matthew is a disciple and scribe elucidating the relationship between old and new as he himself learned it from his teacher, Jesus. From this perspective, Schreiner sheds fresh light on what makes Matthew tick."<br/>--<b>Nijay K. Gupta</b>, Portland Seminary<br/><br/>"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."<br/>--<b>Matthew W. Bates</b>, Quincy University; author of <i>Salvation by Allegiance Alone</i><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Patrick Schreiner</b> (PhD, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) is associate professor of New Testament and biblical theology at Midwestern Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri.
