Matthew, The Gospel of

[Gr.Matthaios / Matthaeus or He.Mathityah “gift of God”]







Background: The first 3 Gospels follows a similar pattern and are often called as Synoptic Gospels, because they “see together” the life of Jesus. Yet each has its own particular emphasis. Matthew begins by tracing Jesus’ family history back to Abraham and recounts various incidents concerned with Jesus’ birth (1, 2). His carefully organised Gospel and he is especially interested in what Jesus said: The sermon on the Mount (5-7), parables about the kingdom of heaven (13) and parables about the end of time (25). He also shows that Jesus is the Messiah spoken of in the OT. 28chs

Malachi, The Book of The Prophet

[He. Malakiy “My Messenger”]

Courtesy of Alexander Scourby(Bible Audio)Malachi

Background: This book indicates that after the time of Haggai and Zechariah things deteriorated again. The people felt disappointed with God (1:2-5), the religious leaders were corrupt and slipshod in their duties (1:6-2:9) and everybody disobedient to God’s laws (2:10-16) while at the same time treating him with contempt (2:17-3:18). Ch4 looks forward to the time when injustice will be dealt with and those who are loyal to God will be restored.

Author: Malachi but some say scholars say there is no such prophet exist,so the author might be unknown.

Date and Location: 430BC, in Jerusalem

Purpose:
-Rebuke the profaning of that which is holy
-rebuke the abuse of proper human relationship
-To announce both judgment and blessing of the coming of the Lord

Unique Features: for its length, Mal. Includes more question (some 25) than any Bible book-including     perhaps the famous one: “will a man rob God” (3:8)

-The most famous OT passage on giving (3:8-10)

Comparison:
-Rv. and Mal. concludes with warnings

(4:6 Rv11:3-6)
-Mention Elijah (4:5 Rv11:3-6)

Entire Bible: Ch4 looks back at OT and forward to the NT

- 4:4*Moses and the law
- 4:5, 6*Christ and his kingdom

Courtesy of Alexander Scourby(Bible Audio)Haggai

Background: haggai and Zechariah belong to the same period (520BC). Many Jews had returned to Israel to rebuild their national life. Initially they worked with enthusiasm but opposition brought the work of rebuilding temple to standstill. Haggai rallied the people, showing that the economic difficulties they had their priorities wrong. The important thing for their national life was God’s house and God had greater things in store if they would only learn to put him first. 2chs

[He. Tsephanyah or Tsephanyahu “Yah has Secreted”]

Courtesy ofAlexander Scourby(Bible Audio)The Book of Zephaniah

Background: Zephaniah worked just before Jeremiah. The theme of the book is God’s universal judgment. Ch1 deals with the judgment of Israel but 2:1-3 promises that this may be averted if they turned back to God. The remainder of Ch2 foretells the punishment of some Israel’s neighbors. Beyond the judgment of Jerusalem the prophet sees hope. 3Chs

Author: Zephaniah

Date: While Zephaniah’s ministry is said only have taken place in the days of Josiah (1:1) it may well have been the years between the beginning of Josiah’s personal awakening (632BC) the onset of his more public revival efforts in 621

Location: Jerusalem (1:4, 10, 12)

Purpose:
-Correct misconception on the say of the Lord, many Israelites thought it would be rejoicing, but he reveal that idolatrous Israel were God’s enemies
-To hope a remnant will survive God’s judgment (3:9-20)

Unique Features:
-“The day of the Lord” is found more in Zep than in any other Bible book.
