Matthew
Traditional books on preaching a book of the Bible often look at broad themes of the text with little explicit advice about preaching individual passages. Lectionary resources often offer exegetical and homiletical insights about a pericope with little attention given to broader theme and structures of the book from which the lection is taken.In this book Wes Allen draws together the strengths of these two approaches into a new genre of homiletical and teaching resource with a focus on the Gospel according to Matthew. Matthew will not only be an essential classroom resource to help students learn to link text and sermon, it will also help congregational leaders develop exegetically informed cumulative preaching and educational experiences focused on but not limited to the lections in Matthew.

In working through several works on Matthew's gospel this one is OK. There are some good insights but the design of the commentary around the RCL preaching schedule is clunky and it doesn't dig very deeply into any text or have anything to recommend it as a unique contribution to the work on Matthew.
