In this volume Father Meier explores how Matthew remodeled the form, the Christological message, and the moral demand of the gospel. Part I shows Matthew's church in crisis. It was experiencing a shift in its Christian existence from a narrow Jewish-Christian past to a universal Gentile future. To preserve yet reinterpret the particularistic traditions of the Jewish-Christian past, Matthew drew up a model of salvation history and then reshaped the gospel message. Part II offers a mini-commentary on the whole gospel to illustrate this reshaping of the message. Pericope by pericope, Matthew presents Jesus as Son of God and Son of Man, and therefore as the definitive teacher of his church. Indeed, the nexus between Christ and his Church emerges as the outstanding characteristic of Matthew's gospel. Part III studies Matthew's construction of a unified moral vision on the basis of this connection between Christ and Church. The basic stance of Jesus and his disciples towards the Mosaic Law is one of fulfillment - but a "prophetic" fulfillment which involves at times a deepening of, at time the abrogation of, the letter of the Law. --from back cover.
