Summary note

Richard A. Edwards here tells Matthew's story of Jesus by using the insights of a contemporary literary-critical method called narrative analysis (or reader-response criticism). He treats the Gospel of Matthew as a distinct narrative, a story, rather than an essay in story form. Special attention is given to the reader, and to the way in which the narrator guides or influences the reader's understanding of the characters, their relation to one another, and their own development as participants in the plot. This is a companion volume to Mark's Story of Jesus, Luke's Story of Jesus, and John's Story of Jesus. - Back cover.
