Matthew is the first book of the New Testament and it is my favorite gospel account mainly for all the teachings of Jesus and in the way he taught them with parables. It was written primarly for the Jews and Matthew attempted to bridge the Old Testament with the New Testament in that the Messiah that they were waiting for had come and His name was Jesus. Matthew has the most references of the Old Testament and shows that King Jesus fulfilled them and that is probably why he starts with Jesus’ kingly lineage of David. Jesus states He didn’t come abolish the law but to fulfill it that now His blood has bought us a new covenant that In Him we can stand righteous.
