Matthew brings the stimulating insights of one of today's most exciting theologians to the first Gospel. This commentary, like each in the series, is designed to serve the church-―through aid in preaching, teaching, study groups, and so forth―and demonstrate the continuing intellectual and practical viability of theological interpretation of the Bible. Figures of the classical church such as Augustine, Calvin, Luther, and Wesley interpreted the Bible theologically, believing Scripture as a whole witnessed to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Modern interpreters of the Bible questioned this premise. But, in recent decades, a critical mass of theologians and biblical scholars has begun to reassert the priority of a theological reading of Scripture. The "SCM Theological Commentary" series enlists leading theologians to read and interpret Scripture for the twenty-first century, just as the church fathers, the Reformers, and other orthodox Christians did for their times and places.

Stanley Hauerwas is the Gilbert T Rowe Professor of Theological Ethics at Duke Divinity School in the USA. As well as this book for SCM, he is also author of The Peaceable Kingdom, With the Grain of the Universe and is co-editor with Peter Ochs of the Radical Traditions series.
