A Clear, Faithful, and Readable Translation of Matthew for Today's Christian.
The Henderson Modern Version (HMV) presents the Gospel of Matthew in fresh, modern English while honoring the ancient message entrusted to the Apostles. Based on the public-domain World English Bible and carefully revised for accuracy, clarity, and fidelity to Scripture, this translation restores essential biblical terms often obscured by tradition-such as ekklesia translated as assembly and baptizō translated as immerse.
Every word of Matthew has been thoughtfully adapted to preserve the meaning and spiritual depth of the original Greek while making it easier for modern readers to understand, study, and apply. The words of Jesus Christ are presented in bold black lettering, giving His teachings reverence without relying on red-letter formatting.
This stand-alone edition of Matthew is ideal for:
Personal Bible study
Church classes and small groups
New Christians seeking a clear translation
