This work is a commentary on the Gospel of Matthew, with the purpose of looking at it through the lenses of the Old Testament Scriptures. Jesus and the Apostles depended on the Old Testament for all that they studied and taught about Yahweh and His redemptive program. It is quite enlightening to juxtapose the Old Testament passages from which the New Testament texts originated, and to see them in their ancient context. The commentary is not exceedingly complex, but at the same time it is not shallow either. Hopefully the work will provoke many thoughts and challenge some paradigms.
