About this listen
This is one chapter (Matthew's Gospel, Book 40) from The Family Bible Commentary, Volume IV by Rev. Dr. Adam C. Koontz.
------
“The teaching of the Lord falls into five clear discourses marked off by Matthew’s repetition of “after Jesus finished these words,” (7:28, 11:1, 13:53, 19:1) with the final discourse ending, “after Jesus finished all these words” (26:1). Before, between, and after the teaching are the mighty wonders of the Lord’s life, death, and resurrection predicted by the teaching of the Lord in the Old Testament. In all things, the Word of God proves true, and though all else passes away, His Word does and shall not. Matthew’s clear arrangement has caused little significant disagreement among Bible readers and teachers about the structure of his gospel, the five discourses being nestled inside the overarching story of the Kingdom’s drawing near and coming in the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus. A simple outline of these narratives and discourses is:
- THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN NOW NEAR IN CHRIST (1:1-2:23)
- THE BEGINNING OF THE CHRIST’S MINISTRY (3:1-7:29)
- First Narrative: The Baptist, the Christ, and the Kingdom (3:1-4:25)
- First Discourse: The Sermon on the Mount (5:1-7:29)

- Third Discourse: Parables of the Kingdom (13:1-52)
- OPPOSITION GROWS, LIFE IN CHRIST EXPOUNDED (13:53-19:1)
- Fourth Narrative: Who do Men say that He Is? (13:53-17:27)
- Fourth Discourse: The Church Discourse (18:1-19:1)
