Inhaltsangabe

Matthew 27:51-54 and 28:1-10 both focus on Christ's death and resurrection-so these texts must be read together in order to understand their theological significance. However, over time, interpreters have separated these two pericopae, seeing 27:51-54 as the theological interpretation of the resurrection scene described in 28:1-10. This book instead proposes a literary reading that properly interprets Matthew 27:51-54 in light of the entire death-resurrection scene, rather than seeing it as an isolated occurrence.Endorsements "In this perceptive and thoughtful work, Dr. Johnson shows how literary sensitivity can work with theological depth, and how these together support solid historical confidence. There is so much to like here." -C. John ("Jack") Collins, Professor of Old Testament, Covenant Theological Seminary "This volume should help scholars rethink the resurrection narratives and aid pastors in preaching the riches of believing in a risen Savior." -Paul R. House, Professor of Divinity-Old Testament, Beeson Divinity School "[Raymond Johnson's] unique and outstanding contribution to the study of Matthew is a great gift to both the academy and the church." -Charles L. Quarles, Professor of New Testament and Biblical Theology; Director for Ph.D. Studies, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary "This work does justice to Matthew's literary as well as historical and theological intentions, and in so doing helps all readers appreciate the richness, integrity, and coherence of Matthew's Gospel and its singular identification of Jesus as the Son of God and Savior of the world." -Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Research Professor of Systematic Theology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
