Title: Great Comparative Commentary
Review: The strength of this commentary comes in its continual comparing of Matthew with the other Gospels. Gundry goes verse by verse through Matthew and shows the continuity of language from the other Gospels as well as the uniqueness of Matthew's vocabulary. Yet Gundry spends the vast majority of his time in this type of comparative work and therefore spends much less time than other commentaries on the actual exegesis of each passage. Therefore, this commentary would be recommended for those doing comparative Gospel studies but most would be better served by Bruner, Carson or Morris in order to understand Matthew's purpose, meaning and theology.
