Gospel of Matthew (Sc, Nlt)

A beautiful representation of The Gospel of Matthew--a thoughtful book on promise and fulfillment, showing us what it means for Jesus to be Immanuel--God with us. This book declares the "Good News" of Jesus; he is the fulfillment of covenants, traditions, and laws for a chosen people. Matthew redefines the "chosen people," inviting everyone--regardless of social, religious, or economic status--to the table. Today, we are invited to be a part of that table, and experience the Good News of Jesus for ourselves.

Alabaster's approach reimagines the entire experience of the book. Incorporating images that illuminate the themes and messages of the text, this book will help the reader engage scripture in a fresh way. The Gospel of Matthew in the New Living Translation (NLT) is great for Bible studies, church groups, or individual devotional times.

Alabaster creates with the reader in mind--including careful use of negative space, legible typefaces, and layouts that allow a thoughtful exploration between text and images.
