5.0 out of 5 stars
amazingly useful for all readers,
By A sojourner (Olathe, KS USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The New American Commentary Volume 22 - Matthew (Hardcover)
There are more technical and lengthy commentaries on Matthew's gospel, and there are shorter commentaries, but this is the one I reach for most.Dr. Blomberg is a respected and gentle scholar who writes with warmth and yet packs insight into each paragraph. Interaction with other scholars are kept to the footnotes which makes this a joy to read, a fascinating (yet reliable) description of "what happened" to Jesus, a valuable resource for the Sunday School teacher and a work which now must certainly be consulted regarding any academic research. A welcome addition in today's confusing religious world.

Great Commentary on Matthew,
By Kyle Lassiter "Therapist and Life Coach" (Colorado, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The New American Commentary Volume 22 - Matthew (Hardcover)
Dr. Blomberg is willing to take on the hard passages in a commentary that is reasonable in length, but comprehensive in coverage. Dr. Blomberg does not hesitate to render interpretations that other commentators shy away from, such as Matthew 11:12. If you need a commentary on Matthew and this one is not in your library you are missing something. (Full Disclosure; I was a student of Dr. Blomberg's in graduate school, though I was not the sharpest knife in the Greek drawer.)
