Today's biblical scholars study the Gospel of Matthew with a wide
variety of methods that yield diverse and exciting insights.
Methods for Matthew offers a primer on six exegetical approaches
that have proved to be especially useful and popular. In each case,
a prominent scholar describes the principles and procedures of a
particular approach and then demonstrates how that approach works
in practice, applying it to a well-known text from Matthew's
Gospel. As an added bonus, each of the chosen texts is treated to
three different interpretations so that the reader can easily
compare the results obtained through one approach to those obtained
through other approaches. The reader will learn a great deal about
two stories from Matthew ('the healing of a centurion's servant'
and 'the resurrection of Jesus') and the reader will also learn
enough about each of these six approaches to understand their
function in biblical studies today.
