The Apostle Matthew from Original Greek

As described in the Old Testament, God promises Hebrews eternal bliss if they follow ten commandments and associated rules. The New overhauls the Old, defining the way to Heaven via the heart rather than the hand. These promises became known as "covenants" over time. And like in any contractual engagement, anyone signing onto such agreement is best served by fully understanding both the terms and parties involved. We rarely do, however. Yet, when our eternal life is on the line, is a little more study of people and promises advised? The quandary becomes where to look. Entire sections of box stores provide a litany of learned commentary. We could, instead, read the Bible for ourselves. But which translation captures the essence of THE Author? Enter this guide. It simply seeks to follow the original Greek language in which it was drafted as closely as possible. It provides fuller explanations behind certain words. And, it supplements words with notes on archeology, geography and various other sciences, where appropriate. It purposefully lacks one thing: opinion. For that is to come from you. God seeks for you to have a relationship directly with Him, not with yet another author of yet another book. Your opinions leading to your understanding is what He desires. So, the purpose of this guide is to present His words in the clearest, original manner as possible to help you find meaning He intended specifically for you when sitting Matthew down to write an account of good news.
