Study the book of Matthew with one of the most talented theologians writing today. Dr. Peter Leithart explicates the structure of the book of Matthew in a two-part recording.

Peter Leithart furthered his thesis that Matthew is the first written Gospel, published shortly after Pentecost, for Jewish believers. Jeff Meyers expounded the implications of reading James as written by James the Son of Zebeddee to the Jewish Christians after the first major persecution of the church (the death of Stephen).
