For the past ten years, the well-received first edition of this
introduction has offered readers a way to look at scriptural texts
that combines historical, narrative, and contemporary interests.
Carter explores Matthew by approaching it from the perspective of
the "authorial audience"--by identifying with and reading along
with the audience imagined by the author. Now an updated second
edition is available as part of a new series focusing on each of
the gospel writers as storyteller, interpreter, and evangelist.
This edition preserves the essential identity of the original
material, while adding new insights from Carter's more recent
readings of Matthew's gospel in relation to the Roman Imperial
world.
Four of the seventeen chapters have been significantly revised, and
most have had minor changes. There are also new endnotes directing
readers to Carter's more recent published work on Matthew. Scholars
and pastors will use the full bibliography and appendix on
redaction and narrative approaches, while lay readers will
appreciate the clear and straightforward text.
