An excellent study

This book was one of three chosen as textbooks by my professor for our Matthew class. It offers insightful exegesis by a noted Biblical scholar.

Meier has such a vision.

This is a beautiful book, which everyone must read. If you never read another commentary, read this one. Meier has a special relationship with Matthew. After reading this book, you will have one, too.
