MATTHEW
[See also works on the Four Gospels.]
- ABBOTT (LYMAN, U.S.A.) New Testament. Vol. I. Matthew and Mark. Sq. 8vo., 9/- Lond., Hodder. 1875.
Intended for workers, and likely to be useful to them.
Matthew only (36 MB)
- ADAMSON (H. T., B.D.) Matthew expounded. Thick 8vo. 12/- Lond., Sampson Low. 1871.
This book reads to us like utter nonsense. We question if anyone except the author will ever be able to make head or tail of it, and he had better be quick about it, or he will forget what he meant.
- ALEXANDER (JOSEPH ADDISON, D.D.) Matthew Explained. Post 8vo. 5/- Lond., Nisbet. 1870. S. 3/6.
Dr. Alexander's last work. He died before it was quite finished. It is complete to Chapter XVI. Its value is great.
- BEAUSOBRE (Isaac DE, 1659—1738), and L'ENFANT (JAQUES, 1661—1728). A New Version, with a Commentary. 8vo. Camb., 1790 ; Lond., 1823, &c. 1/6 to 3/-
The brief notes are purely literal or illustrative, and are remarkably pertinent. The mass of the volume is taken up with an introduction to the New Testament.
- BENHAM (W.) Matthew, with Notes. Cr. 8vo. Lond., National Society. [1861]. S. 1/-
With this in his hand a teacher would be much aided in conducting his class. It is written by a teacher for teachers. The remarks are not very profound, nor always such as we should endorse, but they are well fitted for their purpose.
- BLACKWOOD (CHRISTOPHER). An Exposition upon the 'Ten First Chapters of Matthew.’ 4to. 1649. 9/-
This learned divine became a Baptist through studying the arguments against believers' baptism. This proves his candour. His comment is somewhat out of date, but it is still good.
- CLARKE (GEORGE W.) Notes. Cr. 8vo. New York, 1870.
Good notes for teachers. Well compiled. A fit companion to No. 983.
- DICKSON (DAVID). A Brief Exposition of Matthew. 8vo. 1651. 7/6.
A perfect gem. The work is, to men of our school, more suggestive of sermons than almost any other we have met with.
- GODWIN (JOHN H.) New Translation, with Brief Notes. Cr. 8vo. 5/- Lond., Bagsters. 1863.
Dr. Godwin is a painstaking elucidator of the word, and his plan is an excellent one. Students in college will value him.
- GOODWIN (HARVEY, D D., Bp. of Carlisle). Commentary. Cr. 8vo. 12/-Lond., G. Bell & Sons. 1857. S. 4/- to 5/6.
An important work, which may be consulted with advantage.
- KELLY (WILLIAM). Lectures on the Gospel of Matthew. 6/-Lond., G. Morrish. 1868.
We cannot accept the forced and fanciful interpretations here given.
Part 1.
Part 2.
- MARLORATUS [MARLORAT] (AUGUSTINE. 1560—1562). Exposition. Translated by Thomas Tyroroe. Folio. Lond., 1570
Marlorate was an eminent French reformer, preacher, and martyr. His commentaries contain the cream of the older writers, and are in much esteem, but are very rare. He wrote on the whole New Testament, but we have in English only the Gospels and Jude.
- MORISON (JAMES, D.D.) Matthew's Memoirs of Jesus Christ. 8vo. 14/- Lond., Hamilton. 1870.
We differ greatly in doctrinal views from Dr. Morison, but we set a great price upon his Matthew and Mark, which deserve the utmost praise.
- OVERTON (CHARLES). Expository Preacher. Course of Lectures on Matthew. 2 vols., 8vo. Lond., Nisbet. 1850. S. 6/6.
Scarce.
Solid, sound, soporific sermons; intended for lay helpers to read, with the prayers appended. They will not make the hearers lie awake at nights, or cause them palpitations of heart through excess of original and striking thought.
- PARKER (JOSEPH, D.D.) Homiletic Analysis. Matthew. 8vo. 7/6. Lond., 1870. 3/6.
Dr. Parker is an able though somewhat———. But stop, he is a near neighbor of ours.
- PENROSE (JOHN). Lectures on Matthew. 12mo. Lond., 1832. 1/6.
The author says of his work, "no novelty of any kind, no originality either of thought or research will be found in it." Why, then, did he print it?
- THOMAS (DAVID, D.D.) Genius of the Gospel. Homiletical Commentary. 8vo. Lond., Dickinson. 1873. 8/6.
We hardly know a more suggestive book.

- WARD (RICHARD). Theological Questions, Dogmaticall Observations, and Evangelicall Essays vpon the Gospel according to Matthew. Wherein about two thousand six hundred and fifty profitable Questions are discussed; and five hundred and eighty points of Doctrine noted, &c., Folio. Lond., 1640. 12/-
A huge mass of comment, in which are thousands of good things mostly set forth by way of question and answer. Few could ever read it through; but to a wise minister it would be a mine of wealth.
