Israel, Church, and the Gentiles in the Gospel of Matthew

En savoir plus sur le livre

The book delves into the theological transition in the Gospel of Matthew from Jesus' Israel-focused ministry to a broader universal mission post-Easter. Matthias Konradt critically examines the traditional view of the church replacing Israel, arguing instead for a positive interconnection between the two dimensions of salvation. He highlights how Matthew portrays Jesus as both the Son of David and the Son of God, thus linking the formation of the church with Israel's role as God's chosen nation.
