God's Revelation of Himself In Jesus to the Apostle Matthew

Until recently Zenon Sommers was a student at the University of Michigan-Dearborn who has since graduated and is spending 9 months in Austria as a teaching assistant with the Fulbright program. 

The comparison of the Bible's four gospels is a field of study that will never run dry. While all four follow a somewhat similar structure, each gospel narrative features a surprisingly similar but somewhat different portrait of Jesus from the other three. Matthew's is the first one of the four in order of placement preceding Mark, Luke, then John. As an immediate disciple of Jesus and an Apostle, and having spent three years with him, Matthew wrote primarily what he personally saw and heard from Jesus, or God incarnate. In this gospel we see a picture of Jesus as a prophesied king ushering in the messianic kingdom, or reign, of God coming to earth. This eye-witness perspective shapes every aspect of the gospel, culminating in Jesus’s trial and crucifixion for the crime of blasphemy.
