The Gospel of Matthew: Volume 1 The King and His Kingdom: Chapters 1-7

One of Boice’s most compelling works, his exposition of Matthew integrates rigorous scholarship and clear communication with a lucid verse-by-verse explanation and application to today’s world. Intensely Jewish and evangelistic, the Gospel focuses on Christ as the king who came, died, rose—and will return again! 688 pages total, two softcovers from Baker. [Full Review]

I am preaching through Matthew and have extensively used a number of commentaries. This is an enjoyable read. The two volumns are worth the money but they are not techincal at all. Since these are Boice's sermons, there are sermon ideas with the text but I look to several commentaries first in sermon prep. They are excellent hidden nuggets in this text (2 Vol. on Matthew) as well as Boice's Sermon on the Mount.
