Comprehensive study commentary of Matthew
Review copy supplied by Zondervan Publishers. \\r\\n\\r\\nGeneral Observations. \\r\\n1154 oversized pages, hard cover, well bound, lies open when read. Generous print size, easy to read, utilises footnotes, not endnotes. \\r\\nFormatting. \\r\\nThe ZECNT series has adopted a format by which each section of Scripture is considered in the following seven components: Literary Context; Main Idea; Translation and Graphical Layout; Structure; Exegetical Outline; Explanation of the Text; and Theology in Application. The commentary is based on the Greek text. Full English (TNIV) and Greek texts are reproduced in the body of the commentary, keeping focus on the Scripture. \\r\\nContent. \\r\\nEach section of the text is dealt with in its own chapter, 122 in all, where a balance between considerations of wider canonical and theological context and careful examination of the passage under consideration is struck. \\r\\nConclusion. \\r\\nIt is a volume that brings scholarship to bear in a way that encourages the reader to study the text and not simply mine the book for Osborne?s own (worthwhile and valuable) observations. It brings a focus to each passage of Scripture, while also allowing each passage to be appreciated in its wider canonical context. \\r\\nThe volume also provides a fine model for personal biblical scholarship.
