About this ebook

In volume 2 of this remarkable two-volume commentary, Warren Carter situates Matthew 16:21–28:20 within the context of Jewish traditions and Roman power after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE. Each passage is translated, with interpretation and commentary following. Carter reveals how the text illuminates the diverse ways a community of Jesus followers navigated imperial power. In addition to his thorough examination of the gospel in its historical and social context, Carter shines new light on instances of the Gospel of Matthew’s reception, illustrating how scholars have interpreted it from the era of the early church up to the present.
