Tab Name:
Broadus-Matthew

Listed as one on the top 850 Books for Biblical Expositors by the Master's Seminary, this commentary/reference guide moves expositionally through the first book of the New Testament with amazing scholarship. Broadus digs deep into 1st Century A.D., showing the manners and customs of the day. He uses the information to bring color to the Biblical story of Jesus Christ's life as recorded by Matthew. Broadus also cross references to the other three gospels and puts together a detailed and complete record of Christ's journey on earth. That should not be a surprise because Broadus wrote the first edition of the Harmony of the Gospels that his understudy, A.T. Robertson, later revised.

Broadus examines the very words in the Book of Matthew rather than paraphrasing as many other authors do. In fact, most modern authors have undoubtedly read Broadus' work on Matthew at some point and probably recently if they're writing about Matthew. Each section contains homiletical and practical application.

About John Broadus
John Albert Broadus (1827-1895) was born in Virginia and was educated at the University of Virginia. A Baptist scholar, teacher and preacher, Broadus was assistant professor of Latin and Greek at the University of Virginia and as well as pastor of a Baptist church. He is called by many as the father of American expository preaching. In 1859 he became professor of New Testament Interpretation and Homiletics at the newly founded Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and served as its president from 1889 until his death.
