Matthew (Fortress Biblical Preaching Commentaries)
"Allen helps the preacher to listen to both text and congregation, and to construct a sturdy bridge—with two-traffic—binding each to the other." --M. Eugene Boring, I.Wylie Briscoe Professor of New Testament, emeritus, Brite Divinity School"O. Wesley Allen has given us a fine commentary on Matthew's gospel. Here is a robustly, unashamedly theological reading of the biblical text, all in service of Christian proclamation today. Here is Matthew's good news meant to be preached, to be performed, and practiced!" --William H. Willimon, Professor of the Practice of Christian Ministry, Duke Divinity School
