| Having devoted the past ten years of his life to research for this major new work, John Nolland gives us a commentary on the Gospel of Matthew that engages with a notable range of Matthean scholarship and offers fresh interpretations of the dominant Gospel in the history of the church.Without neglecting the Gospel's sources or historical background, Nolland places his central focus on the content and method of Matthew's story. His work explores Matthew's narrative technique and the inner logic of the unfolding text, giving full weight to the Jewish character of the book and its differences from Mark's presentation of parallel material. While finding it unlikely that the apostle Matthew himself composed the book, Nolland does argue that Matthew's Gospel reflects the historical ministry of Jesus with considerable accuracy, and he brings to the table new evidence for an early date of composition.Including accurate translations based on the latest Greek text, detailed verse-by-verse comments, thorough bibliographies for each section, and an array of insightful critical approaches, Nolland's Gospel of Matthew will stimulate students, preachers, and scholars seeking to understand more fully Matthew's presentation of the gospel narrative. |

| Though we find the Gospel of Matthew first in the New Testament, many scholars believe that the Gospel of Mark is older. Matthew then is often seen as an expansion of Mark, incorporating most of the content of Mark while also adding sections that contain the teachings of Jesus, such as the Sermon on the Mount, and stories about the birth and infancy of Jesus. The phrase "This was to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet" appears sixteen times in the Gospel of Matthew suggesting an emphasis on fulfilling the Law and the Prophets, and implying that a Jewish audience may have been the first hearers of this Gospel. For them then and for us today, the Gospel of Matthew presents Jesus as one who is "God with us" even until the end of time. |

| How can we understandand reach the hip hop generation? Hip hop is DJing and MCing, break dancing and rapping; street art, street talk, and street smarts. It has its own language, its own look, its own consciousness. Hip hop is a culture and an identity, and for many African American churches, hip hop and its generation are both disturbing and frightening.Hip hop raises difficult questions for church leaders:Do we accept hip hop or critique it? How can we as African Americans embrace something that makes us look so bad? How do we move from the objective study of a culture to being in fellowship with its people and empathizing with their lot in life? Can one "live hip hop" and still be a Christian? Professor, and preacher-turned-DJ Ralph Watkins has struggled with these issues. In this important new resource he addresses the questions up front, offering sociological perspective, theological insight, biblical principles, and personal experience. Helping to provide the answers are contributors Jason Barr, Jamal Bryant, William Curtis, and Otis Moss III who are already creating The Gospel Remix in their own congregations and communities. They respond with candid ministry profiles of the hip hop pastor as prophet, father, peer, and model professional.If you are serious about disciple making and reaching the lost, learn to walk as Jesus did, among this generation's "tax collectors and sinners," and discover as Paul did how to become all things to all people for the sake of winning a few |
