Discourse and Narrative Structures
To see how God has fulfilled his old testament promises
The Gospel of Matthew (euangelion)
Save people of their since, coming as king,
Matthew was a tax collector.
Not a good dude.
Same as Zacheus from Luke 19:1-5
One purpose of the book of Matthew: — The purpose of Jesus’ mission is found in Matthew 1:21
“Save his people from their sins”
He performed the miracles to show people that he had the power to forgive people from their sins
Theme ( Jesus the Christ, son of God)
Jesus in Hebrew - Jeshua - Joshua
The Christ - Anointed one - the one,
Jesus didn’t come to take care of Politics and things here on earth but instead, Jesus came to wage ware against sin / Satan.
He was not motivated by national recognition or other but to elevate the kingdom or God,
Greek word for genealogy = Genesis
This is a culminating point for Peter to realize who Jesus really is.
On this rock (the truth that I am the Christ the son of the living God)
Beginning, MIddle, End - Jesus was the Christ
Point 1: Identify that Jesus is the promised solution
Now the presence of God is out among the people
I have all the authority in heave and under the earth — therefore he is king
Point 2: Know how to have a relationship with God.
Theme is “The Kingdom of God”
Kingdom of God = God’s reign over creation
The kingdom of heaven is at hand
Matthew is the only writer that uses the Kingdom of God and Kingdom of Heaven.
They are the same thing
Kingdom of God = Already and not yet
Jesus came here to call people to Repentance.
Chapter 13 focuses on the kingdom of God, kingdom of Heaven
Gospel in the Greek is transliterated evangelism
The gospel will be proclaimed as a testimony to who Jesus was
Has the testimony of Christ gone out to all nations.
Then the end will come
Point 3: The Gospel of Matthew will help you deal with the here and now while focusing on the Kingdom of God.
The kingdom of God is both the means and the end
