Matthew (Book 40/66) – A Book on the Good News (Gospel) of Jesus Christ
Matthew, Mark, and Luke are called the “synoptic” gospels, which means “seen together with a common view.” This book was written by Matthew, one of the apostles of Jesus, who was writing to a Jewish audience as he focused on Jesus as the promised Messiah, focusing on His teaching, miracles, death, and resurrection. It emphasizes the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and Jesus' authority as King. The Sermon on the Mount and the Great Commission highlight Jesus' teachings on righteous living and the mission of the church.
