Matthew is not the first to be written, but it is ranked first in the New Testament. This is because the way Matthew was written has a good connection with the Jews and it brings about a smooth transition from the Old Testament to the New Testament. The Gospel of Matthew talks about the many miracles of Jesus, the death and resurrection of his crucifixion. Using the birth and lineage of Jesus, the many miracles he showed, and his humility as a leader, Matthew painted Jesus as the Messiah, the true Savior of Israel as an example of the Savior's prophecy.
Jesus Christ gave us courtesy in the sermon on the mountain. It is the first book of the Biblical New Testament for all descendants of the Gospel according to Matthew. The Matthew Gospel is aimed at a group of people immersed in the Hebrew tradition. The Gospel according to Matthew emphasizes that Jesus is the Hebrew Bible, the prophecy of Christ in our Old Testament, the Kingdom of the Lord is the kingdom of God in heavenly countries. Jesus provided us a way of life promising to be eternal in heaven.
As a background, the Gospel of Matthew was written by former tax collector Matthew according to the tradition of the Church. As a Jew and a witness to Jesus, Matthew tied the Old Testament to the Old Testament by proclaiming Jesus as Messiah. Like the promised Messiah, Matthew reveals Jesus as a promised fulfillment and a new, more clear explanation of God's plan. Jesus is Emmanuel, "God with us", and who saved the people from sin (1: 21-22). Jesus brought the kingdom of God. Matthew tells us how Jesus declared the existence of the kingdom using words and healed the sick person, cast out the devil and expressed the rule of the kingdom. This context, especially Chapters 5 through 7, can best understand this book.
When people examine the Old Testament and Jesus' behavior, it is easy to understand comparisons and similarities between Jesus and the prophets. Matthew did this through his own Gospel, Matthew. Because he established Jesus as fulfillment of the prophecies of the Old Testament. Matthew is paying attention to the realization of the Old Testament by Jesus, but Matthew is not like Jesus or Elijah of Baptism, but is regarded as a prophet by Jesus, Moses' prophet, Moses himself's prophet .
New Testament: Matthew's book type is the Gospel. The main themes and events include Massay's follow-up to Abraham, Jesus 'imagination, Jesus' baptism by John, Jesus in the 40 days wilderness, Sermon Mountain, Peter's name change (Simon), many miracles The show, the sacraments of St. Jesus, the Cross and the Resurrection. The purpose of Matthew is to present Jesus as a savior by showing the prophecies of the Old Testament that he achieved. Herod showed his fears contained in the Old Testament and the Old Testament and the New Testament. Whereas believers of Christianity wrote the New Testament, the ancient Israelites wrote the Old Testament, which is believed to have mentioned the Hebrew Scriptures this time. Christians do not always agree with Jewish views, but they choose not to obey all beliefs, but like the Old Testament Christians will certainly incorporate the Hebrew Bible into the Christian Bible .
