Jesus is King. Standing as a central theme of Matthew's Gospel, the kingly authority of Jesus has profound implications for the present: it changes the way we see the world, deal with other people, and respond to blessing and hardship alike.

In this reader-friendly commentary Doug O'Donnell leads the reader through the first book of the New Testament, drawing out the key themes and offering contemporary illustrations for preaching. Years of pastoral work stand behind it, and like the rest of the Preaching the Word series it is exposition rather than technical analysis.
