COMMENTARIES THAT
CAN BE BORROWED FROM
ARCHIVE.ORG

Explanation - The following list includes not only commentaries but other Christian works by well known evangelical writers. Most of the resources below are newer works (written after 1970) which previously were available only for purchase in book form or in a Bible computer program. The resources are made freely available by archive.org but have several caveats - (1) they do not allow copy and paste, (2) they can only be checked out for one hour (but can be checked out immediately when your hour expires giving you time to read or take notes on a lengthy section) and (3) they require creating an account which allows you to check out the books free of charge. To set up an account click archive.org and then click the picture of the person in right upper corner and enter email and a password. That's all you have to do. Then you can read these more modern resources free of charge! I have read or used many of these resources but not all of them so ultimately you will need to be a Berean (Acts 17:11+) as you use them. I have also selected works that are conservative and Biblically sound. If you find one that you think does not meet those criteria please send an email at https://www.preceptaustin.org/contact. The resources are listed in alphabetical order by the author's last name and some include reviews of the particular resource. For hundreds of other commentaries and books that can be borrowed see Christian Commentaries Online. 

NOTE - If you would like to "take the pulse" of a given commentary on Matthew to discern whether they are literal or non-literal in some eschatological passages, scan what they have to say about Matthew 24:15+ and then Matthew 24:21+. If they say the "abomination of desolation" was fulfilled in 70 A.D. you know they are not literalists and very likely are Preterist. If they interpret Matthew 24:21+ as fulfilled then they are ignoring Jesus' description that "there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will." Clearly, Jesus describes a once in a lifetime event and to state that the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD with slaughter of many Jews fulfills Jesus' prophecy is to ignore a far greater tribulation against the Jews in the Holocaust. Caveat emptor on eschatological passages in commentaries that take this latter interpretative approach!

Behold the King : a study of Matthew by Toussaint, Stanley D . Portland, Oreg.: Multnomah Press, 1980.

Cyril Barber - A work that expounds the theme of Matthew's gospel in the most able manner. Toussaint's exposition is based on a thorough exegesis of the text. He unfolds Matthew's purpose in writing about Jesus as the Messiah and convincingly demonstrates that He is Israel's long awaited King. The kingdom is shown to be the central theme of Matthew's gospel. It is fair to say that Toussaint has produced a work that places all Bible-believing Christians in his debt. Recommended.

The Beatitudes for today by Blanchard, John

The Gospel of Matthew by Boice, James Montgomery

The Sermon on the mount : an evangelical exposition of Matthew 5-7 by Carson, D. A

When Jesus confronts the world : an exposition of Matthew 8-10 by Carson, D. A

The Expositor's Bible Commentary - 1994 edition - Abridged - New Testament - Matthew by D A Carson (not literal in interpretation of Matthew 24). 

Matthew - New American Commentary series - Craig Blomberg

Exposition of the gospel according to Matthew by William Hendriksen (1032 pages)

Matthew by Chamblin, J. Knox (See also links below)

Matheson (Ligonier) - This massive work (almost 1,600 pages) is the fruit of a lifetime of teaching the Gospel of Matthew. The commentary is in-depth without losing sight of the big picture. It is scholarly without being unreadable. Very highly recommended.

A critical and exegetical commentary on the Gospel according to Saint Matthew : in three volumes by Davies, W. D. (William David), and D.C. Allison (International Critical Commentary)

Matheson (Ligonier) - For those doing an exhaustive study of the Gospel of Matthew, the work of Davies and Allison is indispensable. Readers should be aware that it is written from a moderately critical perspective, but in terms of comprehensiveness, there is nothing quite like this commentary. It is a highly technical commentary on the Greek text and thus not suitable for lay readers, but discerning pastors who are looking for information on every conceivable issue related to the text need look no further. The three paperback volumes are somewhat expensive (see links above), but they are a bargain compared to the hardcovers, which run approximately $150 each! For those not interested in all the technical details, an abridged version is also available.

Cyril Barber - A massive work. Learned, yet not so erudite that it is beyond the comprehension level of a seminary-trained pastor. The nuances of the Greek text are ably elucidated. Scheduled for 3 volumes. Replaces the earlier work by W. C. Allen.

The Sermon on the Mount by Davies, W. D. (William David)

The setting of the Sermon on the Mount by Davies, W. D. (William David)

The Sermon on the mount : contemporary insights for a Christian lifestyle by Dwight Pentecost

Things to come : a study in Biblical eschatology - Dwight Pentecost

Maranatha, our Lord, come! : a definitive study of the rapture of the church - Renald Showers - This work is highly recommended. Here are just a few of the chapters -- and although it is not a commentary on Matthew, it has several chapters like "Birth Pangs" which are very useful in the eschatology of Matthew - 1. The Birth Pangs of the Messiah 2. The Biblical Concept of the Day of the Lord 3. The Day of the Lord, the Time of Jacob’s Trouble, and the Great Tribulation 4. The End and Beginning of the Beginning Judgment Phase of the Future Day of the Lord 5. The Sealed Scroll of Revelation 5 6. Observations Related to the Seals

The words and works of Jesus Christ : a study of the life of Christ by Pentecost, J. Dwight

The Gospel according to Matthew - Pillar Series - Leon Morris 

Christian counter culture : the message of the Sermon on the Mount by Stott, John R.

The message of the Sermon on the mount (Matthew 5-7) : Christian counter-culture by Stott, John R. W

Sermon on the Mount : 12 studies for individuals or groups ; with notes for leaders by Stott, John R. W

Seeking the kingdom : the Sermon on the mount made practical for today by Dockery, David S

Cyril Barber - A practical guide applying the contents of Matthew 5--7 to the needs of people today who are waiting for Christ’ return and the inauguration of His Kingdom.

The Preacher's outline & sermon Bible : New Testament, King James Version - Matthew, Mark, Luke, John  has many cross-references, conservative, helpful explanations

The Bible knowledge background commentary : Matthew-Luke by Evans, Craig A -  This resource will give you very interesting insights and is worth checking on individual passages. 

The Gospel of Matthew by France, R. T  New International Commentary on the New Testament, (2007) Not literal in Olivet Discourse

Challies - France has a volume in the Tyndale series that is highly regarded, but it has since been eclipsed by his much longer and more significant contribution to the NICNT. That series, like so many, is somewhat uneven, but France’s is said to be excellent. Keith Mathison says the “work is thorough and solidly evangelical and will be beneficial to pastors and all serious students of Scripture.” I expect to find a greater number of endorsements as the commentators catch up with newer volumes like this one.

Keith Matheson (Ligonier) - A short commentary on the Gospel of Matthew has been available by R.T. France in the Tyndale New Testament Commentary series since 1985, but in 2007, France published a much more comprehensive commentary on this Gospel in the NICNT series—The New International Commentary on the New Testament. France’s work is thorough and solidly evangelical and will be beneficial to pastors and all serious students of Scripture. His commentary is distinctive in that he takes a largely preterist approach to much of the Olivet Discourse.

Kingdom life in a fallen world : living out the Sermon on the Mount by Ferguson, Sinclair B

Cyril Barber - A challenging discussion of the relevance of Matthew 5--7 to the life of the believer.

The Sermon on the Mount by Ferguson, Sinclair B

The Gospel according to Matthew : an introduction and commentary by France, R. T

Rosscup (comment on his work in the Tyndale NT Commentary) - This work, only a fair one, was done to replace R. V. G. Tasker’s work. It handles many matters well, concisely, and usually hits the crux of interpretation, showing awareness of considerable scholarly literature and main views. France uses the NIV text. He draws up summaries of sections and shows the meaning and connection in context.

Matthew 1-14 by Gangel, Kenneth O - This is more like a workbook with questions and short explanatory notes.

Matthew 15-28 by Gangel, Kenneth O

Wiersbe's Expository Outlines on the New Testament by Wiersbe, Warren W

Cyril Barber - This is a book of exceptional merit. Pastors, missionaries, and Christian workers will profit from its use. Wiersbe introduces each book of the NT, provides an outline, and then furnishes his readers with a chapter-by-chapter discussion of the contents. The homiletic style is a “plus.” Recommended.

With the Word by Wiersbe, Warren 

Meet your King (Matthew) by Wiersbe, Warren

Be loyal (Matthew) by Wiersbe, Warren 

The Bible exposition commentary by Wiersbe, Warren W - All NT books in one source. Excellent. Or here

Rosscup - One of America’s most appreciated staunchly evangelical Bible conference teachers gives diligent, refreshing expositions. These are all of his 23 separate, earlier books in the “Be” series on the New Testament. He strikes a particular appeal with lay people as he crystallizes sections, deals with some of the verses, handles certain problems and backgrounds and applies principles. He is premillennial.

Windows on the parables by Wiersbe, Warren

Live like a king : making the Beatitudes work in daily life by Wiersbe, Warren

Rosscup - First published in 1976. Wiersbe recognizes the present and future implications of the “Sermon on the Mount,” and expounds the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:1-16) with God’s Kingdom program in mind. Here is a work that is rich in insights and spiritual application. Each message deals with the realities of living the Christian life as a “King’s kid.” Recommended.

Cyril Barber - A devotional masterpiece. Practical, relevant, rich in insights, and rewarding in its application of truth to life. This brief work deserves to be read slowly and carefully

WORD STUDY
GREEK RESOURCES

NOTE - All of these resources can be borrowed from archive.org. This list also includes resources to help study the Bible. 

See also the list of Word Study Resources 

The Complete Word Study Dictionary: New Testament by Zodhiates, Spiros - This is my "go to" resource for Greek word studies. One on the best lexicons for laymen. Highly Recommended for Greek Word Studies to aid your interpretation of a passage. 

Analytical Lexicon of the Greek New Testament by Friberg, Timothy. Shorter definitions than Zodhiates but does an excellent job in summarizing the various nuances of a specific Greek word. One of my favorites.

Shorter Lexicon of the Greek New Testament by Gingrich, F. Wilbur. Similar to Friberg but shorter definitions. Gingrich however gives more Scriptures for each nuance, whereas Friberg generally gives only one representative Scripture. 

The New Linguistic and Exegetical Key to the Greek New Testament by Rogers, Cleon - This book is a gold mine of little gems on individual Greek words in any NT passage you are studying. If you have time it is always worth checking out! I use it in my Greek word studies all the time. 

Word meanings in the New Testament - Matthew-Revelation by Ralph Earle. Strictly speaking this is not a lexicon, but it offers insights on select words in a verse by verse format (but not every verse is included in the analysis). This resource is worth checking if you have time as it can occasionally give some wonderful insights on a specific Greek word. 

New Testament Words - William Barclay - 59 ratings very interesting resource - covers about 70 NT Greek words in Barclay's unique style. On page 289 there is a helpful index of English words with the corresponding Greek word, in turn followed by the places Barclay described them in New Testament Words and in his Daily Study Bible series (see list of DSB commentaries here). E.g., take the Greek word for "Covetousness" which is pleonexia and is found in New Testament Words on page 61 and pp 233-235 and is also described in the Daily Study Bible entries for : Mark 7:14-23; Ro 1:28-32; Eph. 4:17-24; Col. 3:5. So you can click the DSB commentary on Mark 7 and scroll down to Mark 7:14 to see Barclay's entry for pleonexia which concludes "Pleonexia ( G4124) is that lust for having which is in the heart of the man who sees happiness in things instead of in God." Interesting!

Greek-English lexicon of the New Testament : based on semantic domains - Louw Nida. Brief but nice definitions. Not easy to use - you need to know some Greek. Classifies Greek words into 93 "semantic domains" (see list on page XXV) and if you can categorize the word you are looking for in one of the domains, it can help find the specific word you are interested in. 

Kittel's Theological Dictionary of the New Testament : abridged in one volume (TDNT) - Classic ("Little Kittel") work summarizing the 10 volume set by Kittel. For most of us the abridged definition is "more than enough!" 

A Greek-English lexicon of the New Testament, and other early Christian literature (BDAG); by Bauer, Walter, More detailed definitions but need to know Greek. Zodhiates and Friberg are much easier to use. 

Liddell and Scott's Greek-English lexicon, abridged : the little Liddell by Liddell, Henry George. The abridged version. You need to know Greek to use.

Exegetical Dictionary of the New Testament (Volume 1 - A thru E);  Exegetical Dictionary of the New Testament (Volume 3- P thru ...) Volume 2 not available. I do not find this adds much to the easier to use resources like Zodhiates and Friberg. 

A Pocket Lexicon to the Greek New Testament by Souter, Alexander. Brief definitions. Need to know some Greek. Not that helpful. 

Vine's Expository Dictionary of Old Testament and New Testament Words - pdf. The old standby. You can also borrow Vine's complete expository dictionary of Old and New Testament words

New Testament Words in Today's Language by Detzler, Wayne A - Wonderful resource to supplement word studies.  3 ratings THIS IS A SLEEPER! 

So That's What it Means - This is another book formerly titled "Theological Wordbook" edited by Charles Swindoll. It is now under this new title So That's What it Means and can be borrowed - it is more like a dictionary than a lexicon but the comments are superb! The contributors include DKC—Donald K. Campbell, WGJ—Wendell G. Johnston, JAW—John A. Witmer, JFW—John F. Walvoord 

Christian Words  By: Turner, Nigel, Published: 1980 - >500 pages. An interesting, unique resource on Greek words (no Hebrew) with extensive bibliography. For an example see "Abba" and "Alleluia" - "In Christian vocabulary Alleluia is a heavenly song, a chant of saints in the bliss of Paradise, echoed on earth as joyful seasons." One caution is he uses the Apocryphal writings extensively - I am not sure of his theological persuasion.

Zondervan NASB exhaustive concordance - 1589 pages

Pocket dictionary for the study of New Testament Greek by DeMoss, Matthew S. If you want to dig a little deeper into Greek. 66 ratings

Synonyms of the New Testament by Trench, Richard Chenevix - or click here for list of 108 entries. 

Expository Dictionary of Bible Words by Richards, Larry,  33 ratings It is does not go into great depth on the Greek or Hebrew words but does have some excellent insights.

JOSEPH ADDISON ALEXANDER
GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MATTHEW

Cyril Barber - Published posthumously in 1861 and covering (in detail) only chapters 1-16, this volume contains the same richness of thought and close attention to detail that is found in Alexander's other commentaries.

INDEX - Note that chapters 17-28 are only brief summaries. 

HENRY ALFORD
(1810-1871)
The New Testament for English Readers
Matthew Commentary

Read his fascinating brief biography - Henry Alford and Phil Johnson's related comments/p>

Comment by Alford on Mt 24:21 describing the "Great Tribulation" showing that he is at least in part "futuristic": "Our Lord still has in view the prophecy of Daniel (Da 12:1), and this citation clearly shews the intermediate fulfilment, by the destruction of Jerusalem, of that which is yet future in its final fulfilment: for Daniel is speaking of the end of all things. Then only will these words be accomplished in their full sense."

James Rosscup writes that Alford's series on the New Testament "contains much that is valuable in the Greek New Testament… though all of the Greek New Testament words have been changed to English throughout." (Commentaries for Biblical Expositors: An Annotated Bibliography of Selected Works)

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (see his comments in following entry on Alford).

Editorial Note: If you are not proficient in Greek, you will find this work considerably more useful than the following work by Alford, because in this volume he translates the Greek and Latin into English. While the "The Greek New Testament" is longer (e.g., English version of 1John = 66 pages compared to Greek version = 94 pages in part because the latter includes comments of more technical nature), the substance of the commentary is otherwise similar to that found in the "NT for English Readers".

HENRY ALFORD
The Greek New Testament
Matthew Commentary

Interprets Mt 24:15 as fulfilled in 70AD.

James Rosscup writes that "This was the great work in the life of the versatile Dean of Canterbury. An outcome of this production was the New Testament for English Readers (4 vols.). Alford was a Calvinist, conservative and premillennial, though not dispensational. He takes a literal interpretation of the thousand years in Rev. 20 and has a famous quote there, is strong on sovereign election as in Ro 8:29, 30 and 1Pe 1:2, but, unfortunately, holds to baptismal regeneration in such texts as Titus 3:5 and John 3:5. He shows a great knowledge of the Greek text and faces problems of both a doctrinal and textual nature." (Commentaries for Biblical Expositors: An Annotated Bibliography of Selected Works)

John Piper writes ""When I’m stumped with a… grammatical or syntactical or logical [question] in Paul, I go to Henry Alford. Henry Alford… comes closer more consistently than any other human commentator to asking my kinds of questions."

Charles Haddon Spurgeon writes that this text "is an invaluable aid to the critical study of the text of the New Testament. You will find in it the ripened results of a matured scholarship, the harvesting of a judgment, generally highly impartial, always worthy of respect, which has gleaned from the most important fields of Biblical research, both modern and ancient, at home and abroad. You will not look here for any spirituality of thought or tenderness of feeling; you will find the learned Dean does not forget to do full justice to his own views, and is quite able to express himself vigorously against his opponents; but for what it professes to be, it is an exceedingly able and successful work. The later issues are by far the most desirable, as the author has considerably revised the work in the fourth edition. What I have said of his Greek Testament applies equally to Alford’s New Testament for English Readers,* which is also a standard work." (Lectures to my Students, Vol. 4: Commenting and Commentaries; Lectures Addressed to the students of the Pastors' College, Metropolitan Tabernacle)

WILLIAM BARCLAY
Commentary on Matthew

D Edmond Hiebert - Divides the gospel into brief sections intended for daily study. The author follows his own translation; his comments "aim to make the results of modern scholarship available to the non-technical reader in a form that it does not require a theological education to understand." Word studies and refreshing insights abound, with a stress upon the relevance of the gospel for modern life. Liberal in spots.  (from Hiebert's critique of Barclay on Peter's epistles - "Barclay holds that Christ's descent into Hades gave those who there heard Him a second chance.")

Comment: I appreciate Barclay's unique insights on Greek words, but clearly his teaching about a "second chance" is NOT sound doctrine! Be an Acts 17:11 Berean with Barclay. See discussion of his orthodoxy especially the article "The Enigmatic William Barclay".

JOHANN BENGEL
The Critical English Testament
Commentary on Matthew

Represents Combination of Bengel's Gnomon (above) and Comments by more modern expositors (in brackets) to make this more usable for those who do not read Greek. Interprets Mt 24:15 as fulfilled in 70AD.

C H Spurgeon -- "'A Critical New Testament, so compiled as to enable a reader, unacquainted with Greek, to ascertain the exact English force and meaning of the language of the New Testament, and to appreciate the latest results of modern criticism.' Such is the professed aim of this commentary, and the compilers have very fairly carried out their intentions. The whole of Bengel’s Gnomon is bodily transferred into the work, and as one hundred and twenty years have elapsed since the first issue of that book, it may be supposed that much has since been added to the wealth of Scripture exposition; the substance of this has been incorporated in brackets, so as to bring it down to the present advanced state of knowledge. We strongly advise the purchase of this book, as it is multum in parvo, and will well repay an attentive perusal. Tischendorf and Alford have contributed largely, with other German and English critics, to make this one of the most lucid and concise commentaries on the text and teachings of the New Testament" (Ibid)

JOHN BROADUS
Commentary on Matthew

James Rosscup writes that "In many ways it is the finest and most satisfying overall older commentary on Matthew. It helps the student on almost every verse. Broadus deals frontally with problems and gives much rich material that throws light on the text. His citations from other sources are often very helpful. From the standpoint of the Greek text, he is also sound. This 1886 work, long a part of the American Commentary on the New Testament series, is still one of the best in detailed explanation of the text where it counts." (Ibid)

Rosscup rates this as the #2 best detailed exegetical commentary on Matthew.

Cyril Barber - Very complete. Tackles interpretative problems honestly. Provides "Homiletical and Practical" suggestions for preachers. Adopts an amillennial interpretation of Christ's parables and teaching about the Kingdom. Valuable.

D Edmond Hiebert - One of the ablest American commentaries on Matthew from the past century and still valuable for the systematic interpretation of the gospel. It is the work of an accomplished conservative scholar.

Note: Broadus does interpret Mt 24:15 as fulfilled in 70AD.

JOHN CALVIN
Commentary

Note: Calvin interprets Mt 24:15, 21 ;as fulfilled in 70AD - literal reading of the passage strongly argues against his interpretation. Be a Berean especially with older commentators such as Calvin, Henry, Jamieson (JFB is one of the best older works), Gill.

Frequent Illustrations: Below are four examples of illustrations from the notes on Matthew 7:

1. Illustration Related to Matthew 7:1: Too Many Umbrellas - The story is told of Mr. Jones who picked up the wrong umbrella in a hotel lobby and was about to walk out when the rightful owner called attention to his mistake. Embarrassed, he offered his apologies. Finding his own, he went on his way. The incident, however, reminded him that he had promised to buy both his wife and daughter an umbrella. To his delight he found that a local store nearby had them on sale, so he bought two. Just as he was getting into his car with his unwrapped purchases, he saw the man he had encountered earlier. He was eyeing him suspiciously. Seeing the three umbrellas hooked over his arm, the stranger exclaimed sarcastically, “I see you had a good day after all!” Although Mr. Jones blushed, he was not guilty of any wrongdoing. Things are not always what they seem. We need to be reminded that our first impressions, even many impressions, may be misleading.
2. Illustration Related to Matthew 7:11: In The Whisper Test, Mary Ann Bird writes: I grew up knowing I was different, and I hated it. I was born with a cleft palate, and when I started school, my classmates made it clear to me how I looked to others: a little girl with a misshapen lip, crooked nose, lopsided teeth, and garbled speech. When schoolmates asked, “What happened to your lip?” I’d tell them I’d fallen and cut it on a piece of glass. Somehow it seemed more acceptable to have suffered an accident than to have been born different. I was convinced that no one outside my family could love me. There was, however, a teacher in the second grade whom we all adored—Mrs. Leonard by name. She was short, round, happy—a sparkling lady. Annually we had a hearing test. ... Mrs. Leonard gave the test to everyone in the class, and finally it was my turn. I knew from past years that as we stood against the door and covered one ear, the teacher sitting at her desk would whisper something, and we would have to repeat it back—things like “The sky is blue” or “Do you have new shoes?” I waited there for those words that God must have put into her mouth, those seven words that changed my life. Mrs. Leonard said, in her whisper, “I wish you were my little girl.” God says to every person deformed by sin, “I wish you were my son” or “I wish you were my daughter.” You may not always understand it, but God does love you. He will give good gifts to those who ask Him.
3. Illustration Related to Matthew 7:12:A recently divorced woman is walking along the beach contemplating how badly treated she got in the divorce settlement, when she spies a magic lamp washing up onshore. She rubs the lamp, and out pops a magical genie. The genie notices her anger and lets her vent her troubles to him. As a consolation, the genie informs her that he will give her three wishes. But he cautions her that because he does not believe in divorce, he will give her ex-husband ten times the amount of whatever she wishes. The woman is steaming mad, thinking that this is hardly fair, but she makes her first wish. The first wish was for a billion dollars. The genie grants her wish and she finds herself sitting in pile of one billion one-dollar bills. The genie then reminds her that her husband is now the recipient of 10 billion dollars. The woman can barely contain her anger when she makes her second wish. The second wish was for a beautiful mansion on the shore of her own private beach. In an instant it was granted, but the genie then reminds again that her ex-husband now owns ten of what she wished for, and points out to a small development of ten such mansions down the beach. Upon hearing this, the woman takes her time to contemplate her last wish. Just as the genie was about to give up on her, the woman informs the genie that she wants to make the last wish. But before she can do this, the genie again warns her that her ex-husband will get ten times what she wishes for. “No problem,” said the woman as she grinned in ecstasy. “For my last wish, I’d like to give birth to twins.” Be careful what you wish for …How do you want others to treat you?
4. Illustration Related to Matthew 7:12: Mr. Charles Schwab was one of the first men ever to earn a million dollars a year. Why did Andrew Carnegie pay Schwab more than $3,000 a day? Because he knew more about the manufacture of steel than other people? No. Schwab said that he had many men working for him whose technical knowledge surpassed his. Schwab was paid such a handsome amount largely because of his ability to deal with people. Here is the secret set down in his own words: “I consider my ability to arouse enthusiasm among the men the greatest asset I possess, and the way to develop the best that is in a man is by appreciation and encouragement. There is nothing else that so kills the ambitions of man as criticisms from his superiors. I never criticize anyone. I believe in giving a man incentive to work. So I am anxious to praise but loath to find fault. If I like anything, I am hearty in my approbation and lavish in my praise.”

Craig Keener

Note that Keener is not Futuristic on Matthew 24-25

Comment: Keener is an outstanding exegete. His commentary is distinctive in its emphasis on the social-historical context of the Gospel. It also contains a very useful 150 page bibliography of secondary resources on the Gospel of Matthew. (Ligonier)

Tim Challies: Keener’s work receives high recommendations and significant warnings about the limits of its usefulness. It may also be going out of print since it is not available at Westminster Books and is currently available only from Amazon resellers. This is the kind of commentary I tend to avoid since I don’t consider myself sufficiently schooled to confidently sort through the weaknesses. However, most experts do recommend it with certain caveats. (Challies.com)

MISCELLANEOUS RESOURCES

Note: Be a Berean especially with older commentators like John Calvin, Adam Clarke, Matthew Henry, Jamieson & Fausset & Brown [generally one of the best, most literal of the "older" commentaries!], John Gill. They often do not interpret the prophetic passages such as Matthew 13, 24, 25 from a literal, futuristic perspective (See also note below on "Best Commentaries). I would recommend notes by John MacArthur, Dave Guzik, Ray Stedman and John Walvoord (to name just a few) for an alternative interpretation of the prophetic passages in Matthew 13, 24,25 as yet future not as fulfilled in the past.

Best Commentaries

• Best Commentaries on Matthew - Challies Dot Com
• Top 5 Commentaries on The Gospel of Matthew by Keith Mathison - Ligonier Ministries Blog

Caveat Emptor! (Caveat emptor) Virtually all of the top rated commentaries in the preceding two lists of "Best" commentaries interpret the Abomination of Desolation in Mt 24:15+ as the Roman Army (See Why the Abomination of desolation is Not the Roman Army), indicating that these lists have a distinctly non-futuristic bias! To wit, neither of these lists even give honorable mention to one of the best expositional commentaries ever published on the Gospel of Matthew, the four volume series by Dr John MacArthur. Therefore in interest of fairness, below is Dr Jim Rosscup's critique of Dr MacArthur's work:

MacArthur, John, Jr. Matthew. 4 volumes (You might also want to click the following link to see how many "Stars" 30 random reviewers give to The MacArthur New Testament Commentary on the Gospel of Matthew) - Conservative, premillennial exposition which often deals in some detail with problem verses and shows the vital lessons of Jesus’ teachings in a very readable manner. The author often explains customs, gives views and reasons. In Matthew 13, he sees the fourth soil only as representing a genuinely saved person, and the leaven in a good sense. In Matthew 24, he views verses 15ff. as related to tribulation and Second Advent, not A. D. 70, the one taken as removed in judgment and the one left as preserved on earth safely to enter the earthly kingdom promised in Old Testament prophecy. (Commentaries For Biblical Expositors- Dr. Jim Rosscup - highly recommended)

CYRIL BARBER - his critique of resources on Matthew - The Minister's Library - Volume 2 and Volume 3

• *Alexander, Joseph Addison. The Gospel According to Matthew. Lynchburg, Va.: James Family Publishers, 1979. Published posthumously in 1861 and covering only chapters 1-16, this volume contains the same richness of thought and close attention to detail that is found in Alexander's other commentaries. (Online Commentary)
• Beare, Francis Wright. The Gospel According to Matthew: Translation, Introduction and Commentary. San Francisco: Harper & Row, 1981. A well-informed commentary that skillfully correlates Matthew's unique presentation of the life and ministry of Jesus, though it adheres to supposed Marcan sources. Has much to commend it. For the discerning reader.
• Blomberg, Craig L. Matthew. New American Commentary. Nashville: Broadman Press, 1992. Based on the text of the NIV (that Blomberg frequently has to correct). Contains impressive background material. Excellent for preachers who will find this a most helpful volume.
• Broadus, John Albert. Commentary on Matthew. Grand Rapids: Kregel Publications, 1990. First published in 1886. Very complete. Tackles interpretative problems honestly. Provides "Homiletical and Practical" suggestions for preachers. Adopts an amillennial interpretation of Christ's parables and teaching about the Kingdom. Valuable.
• Brown, Raymond Edward. The Birth of the Messiah: A Commentary on the Infancy Narratives in Matthew and Luke. Garden City, N.Y.: Doubleday and Company, 1977. †Parallels Leon Morris's Story of the Christ Child. Fits Matthean and Lukan accounts into the perceived perspective of each writer. Discusses the basic thrust of the narrative. The treatment, however, is marred by critical views concerning the origin, purpose, and composition of each book. The exegetical insights are of value. Roman Catholic.
• Bruner, Frederick Dale. The Christbook: A Historical Theological Commentary. Waco, TX: Word Books, 1987. Covers the Gospel of Matthew, chs. 1-12. Provides a detailed, scholarly explanation of the text. The exposition is far-ranging, and there are occasional word studies that pastors will find valuable
• Davenport, Gene L. Into the Darkness: Discipleship in the Sermon on the Mount. Nashville: Abingdon Press, 1988. Contains a devastating critique of contemporary Western society and the Western church. Challenges theologians to the theological right as well as the left to restructure their beliefs in accordance with Christ's teachings. One "plus" in this treatment of Christ's discourse is the author's use of Jewish materials.
• Davies, William David, and Dale C. Allison, Jr. A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Gospel According to Saint Matthew. In process. International Critical Commentary. Edinburgh: T. and T. Clark, 1988- . A massive work. Learned, yet not so erudite that it is beyond the comprehension level of a seminary-trained pastor. The nuances of the Greek text are ably elucidated. Scheduled for 3 volumes. Replaces the earlier work by W. C. Allen
• Dickson, David. A Brief Exposition of the Evangel of Jesus Christ According to Matthew. Edinburgh: Banner of Truth Trust, 1981.Though highly praised by C. H. Spurgeon, this work fails to treat the narrative consecutively or thematically. There are rich devotional thoughts contained within these pages, but they bear little relationship to the purpose of this gospel
• Dockery, David S., and David E. Garland. Seeking the Kingdom: The Sermon on the Mount Made Practical for Today. Wheaton, IL: Harold Shaw Publishers, 1992. A practical guide applying the contents of Matthew 5--7 to the needs of people today who are waiting for Christ’ return and the inauguration of His Kingdom.
• Ferguson, Sinclair B. Kingdom Life in a Fallen World: Living Out the Sermon on the Mount. Colorado Springs, CO: NavPress, 1986. A challenging discussion of the relevance of Matthew 5--7 to the life of the believer.
• France, Richard T. Matthew, Evangelist and Teacher. New Testament Profiles. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 1998. First published in 1989. Contains just about all the data an aspiring theologue needs to know about the first gospel. Treats historical criticism with clarity. Provides a useful summary of the setting and literary character of Matthew’s record. Climaxes with Matthew’s portrait of Jesus. Here is a work that is permeated with sound wisdom.
• Frances, Richard T. The Gospel According to Matthew: In Introduction and Commentary. Tyndale New Testament Commentary. Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1988. Replaces Tasker's commentary. Reveals Matthew's close attention to details. While nontechnical, this volume provides preachers with many pertinent insights into the text. France, however, fails to follow the thematic approach to this gospel and the result is the division of what Matthew wrote into geographic areas. This conceals the real essence of what Matthew was trying to present. In spite of this major weakness, there are many valuable ideas to be gleaned from this study.
• Glassock, Ed. Matthew. Moody Gospel Commentary. Chicago: Moody, 1997. A verse-by-verse exposition written in the best evangelical tradition. Adequately explains the theme of Matthew’s gospel, the unique aspects of his theology, and the historic background to Christ’s life and work. Recommended.
• Green, H. Benedict. The Gospel According to Matthew. New Clarendon Bible. London: Oxford University Press, 1975. Relying heavily on source criticism, Green provides little more than a summary of modern critical opinion regarding matters of authorship, date, and the like. His comments on the text are of help to the discerning reader, but his failure to expound the theme of this gospel and his handling of Christ's virgin conception, ministry, vicarious death, and resurrection leave much to be desired.
• Green, Michael. The Message of Matthew: The Kingdom of Heaven. Downers Grove, IL: IVP, 2001. The author gives as his reason for writing this exposition the “paucity of commentaries that one would want to pick up and actually read.” His extensive bibliography reveals a total lack of awareness of the writings of men of the caliber of J. F. Walvoord (1974) and S. D. Toussaint (1980). His perceived message of Matthew is clearly presented, but his treatment of Matthew 13 and 24—25 leaves much to be desired.
• Gundry, Robert Horton. Matthew: A Commentary on His Literary Art. Grand Rapids: Wm.  Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1982. †Carefully analyzed and clearly outlined, this interpretative commentary treats Matthew's gospel as a Christian midrash. Because that form of literature did not come to the fore in Jewish thinking until much later, Gundry errs in superimposing that literary genre on a first-century document.
• Hagner, Donald A. Matthew 1--13. Word Biblical Commentary. Dallas, TX: Word Books, 1993. Another scholarly contribution. Covers the crucial issues pertaining to matters of authorship, date, et cetera. Evidences a thorough grasp of key issues , Treats the text thematically. The concept of the kingdom is mentioned, but not as a vital part of Matthew’s theme and purpose. Hagner, Donald A. Matthew 14--28. Word Biblical Commentary. Dallas, TX: Word Books, 1995. Completes Hagner’s commentary. This is an erudite discussion. As with the other books in this series there is in this one an emphasis on source material with much attention being paid to what data in Matthew parallels Mark and/or Luke, as opposed to what is unique to Matthew. Hagner provides a helpful discussion of social customs, the history of the times, some textual problems, and the development of Matthean theology. BORROW Matthew 1-13 and Matthew 14-28
• Hendriksen, William. Exposition of the Gospel According to Matthew. New Testament Commentary. Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, 1973. Following a comprehensive introduction, the writer treats his readers to 900 pages of detailed exposition. His approach is geographic and his style pedantic. There is an elaborate explanation of the text and a full discussion of varying views.
• Hill, David. The Gospel of Matthew. New Century Bible Commentary. Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1981.†A form-critical study that discusses recent developments in NT scholarship, followed by comments on the text of the RSV The author does not expound the purpose of this gospel, and his treatment of Matthean theology beclouds the issues.
• Hostetler, Jonathan J. Matthew Explained: The Gospel Story of Jesus as King. Scottdale, PA: Herald Press, 1988. A longtime Christian educator retells the story of the Gospel of Matthew. Along the way he explains in simple terms the purpose of the book, its intended audience, and its major teachings.
• Howard, George. The Gospel of Matthew According to a Primitive Hebrew Text. Macon, GA: Mercer University Press, 1987. Presents evidence that a Hebrew text of Matthew's gospel was preserved by Jews during the early and late Medieval periods. Argues that beneath an upper layer of scribal revision lies an old substratum to a Hebrew text of the first gospel that represents the original composition--not a translation. The Hebrew text is presented in a parallel column with an English translation. Includes linguistic analyses as well as other documentation of importance to the scholar.
• Ironside, Henry Allan. Matthew. Revised ed. Neptune, NJ: Loizeaux, 1994. This excellent lay person’s exposition was first published in 1948. Now, with the type completely reset, it has been given a format that makes it ideal for devotional reading. One limitation is the fact that each exposition is based on the KJV. Reliance upon a more recent translation such as the NKJV would have given it wider appeal.
• Keener, Craig S. A Commentary on the Gospel of Matthew. Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1999. This commentary offers an interpretative approach that focuses on the socio-historical context of the Gospel and the nature of Matthew’s exhortation to his first-century audience. By merging a careful study of the text with the needs of his readers Keener uncovers significant truths not found in other commentaries.
• MacArthur, John E, Jr. Kingdom Living Here and Now. Chicago: Moody Press, 1980. Representing exposition at its best, these sermons on the Beatitudes of Matthew 5 will challenge and edify the reader in much the same way they did when MacArthur's congregation first heard them. Recommended.
• *_______ Matthew 1-7. The MacArthur New Testament Commentary. Chicago: Moody Press, 1985. This pace-setting volume is the first of three on this gospel. It reveals MacArthur's expository method; thorough grasp of the theme of the biblical writer; warm, evangelistic style; and remarkable ability to apply the text to life. No preacher can afford to be without this fine work.
• MacArthur, John F., Jr. Matthew 8--15. MacArthur New Testament Commentary. Chicago: Moody Press, 1987. This is the author's second volume of expository messages on Matthew's gospel. He deals realistically with the theme, avoids technical/critical issues, and succeeds in leading his readers through to a clearer understanding of the text. When completed, this will stand among the best works of its kind.
• MacArthur, John F., Jr. Matthew 16--23. MacArthur New Testament Commentary. Chicago: Moody Press, 1988. Continues the writer's exposition of the first gospel. Well produced, and well worth the time spent reading it. Recommended.
• MacArthur, John F., Jr. Matthew 24--28. MacArthur New Testament Commentary. Chicago: Moody Press, 1989. Completes MacArthur's excellent expositional commentary. Handles the Olivet Discourse skillfully so as to draw out Christ's prediction of His second coming. Then treats His arrest, trial, crucifixion, and resurrection. Ranks as one of the finest expositions extant. Recommended.
• MacArthur, John F., Jr. The Beatitudes: The Only Way to Live. Chicago: Moody, 1998. First published in 1980 under the title Kingdom Living Here and Now. Contains review and study questions by J. S. Bell, Jr. An excellent devotional resource.
• Meyer, Frederick Brotherton. Inherit the Kingdom: Meditations on the Sermon on the Mount. Wheaton, Ill.: Victor Books, 1984. Meyer does not interpret Matthew 5-7 accurately. As a result, this work, though deeply devotional, does not make a lasting contribution. (Acts 17:11+ applies!)
• Minear, Paul S. Matthew: The Teacher's Gospel. New York: Pilgrim Press, 1982. Approaches the gospel from the perspective of the writer as a teacher and shows how what he wrote was designed to strengthen the faith of believers in the early church. 
• *Morison, James. A Practical Commentary on the Gospel According to St. Matthew Minneapolis: Klock & Klock Christian Publishers, 1981. A worthy addition to any preacher's library. The practical and devotional thoughts alone are worth many times the cost of the book.
• Morris, Leon Lamb. The Gospel According to Matthew. Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1992. In his inimitable style, Morris provides a clear, complete, and conservative exposition of Matthew’s gospel. He does not engage in debate over higher critical issues, but rather treats the text as it has come down to us. He dates the writing of the gospel somewhere in the late 50s or early 60s; the place of origin he believes to have been Syria or possibly Palestine; the author, Matthew; and of Matthew’s sources (i.e., the vexing Synoptic Problem), he claims that they cannot be determined with any degree of certainty. Thus free of the minutia that occupies such a large place in the writings of others, Morris devotes the rest of his commentary to exposition. Interspersed throughout the text is a discussion of terms like “kingdom,” “kingdom of heaven,” and “kingdom of God.” His discussion of these matters, as well as his remarks on Matthew chapters 13 and 24--25 is from an amillennial point of view. If there is one major weakness to Morris’ approach, it is that he works within the framework of Reformed theology and the writings of premillennialists are ignored.
• Morrison, George H. Matthew. 3 vols. Chattanooga, Tenn.: AMG Publishers, 1978. These eloquent messages expound the meaning of Matthew's gospel with a force that is compelling.
• Morrison, George H. Meditations on the Gospels. Chattanooga, TN: AMG Publishers, 1996. The 713 pages that make up this book contain approximately 240 vignettes that focus light on the words and works of the Lord Jesus. Each meditation reveals the devout heart of the author. Preachers may wish to look upon these chapters as “seedbeds” to be cultivated and developed into sermons. If so, then they will find in them a rich resource for several years of ministry
• Plummer, Alfred. An Exegetical Commentary on the Gospel According to St. Matthew. Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, 1982. First published in 1915, this work remains one of the best treatments of Matthew's gospel ever written.
• Ryle, John Charles. Matthew. Crossway Classic Commentaries. Edited by A. E. McGrath and J. I. Packer. Wheaton, IL: Crossway Books, 1993. A welcome reprint. Must reading for lay people.
• Scroggie, William Graham. A Guide to the Gospels. Grand Rapids: Kregel Publications, 1995. Filled with charts, maps, outlines, and topical as well as expository ideas. Favors the priority of Mark. Contains just about everything a student of the gospels or an expository preacher will need. Includes a resume of the life of Christ. Recommended!
• Senior, Donald P The Passion Narrative According to Matthew. Leuven, Belgium: Leuven University, 1975. Based on the latest Redaktionsgeschichte, this study of Matthew 26:1-27:56 shows how the Matthean account of the passion differs literally and substantively from the Marcan account. A work for the specialist.
• Smith, Robert H. Matthew. Augsburg Commentary on the New Testament. Minneapolis: Augsburg Publishing House, 1988. Explains the significance of Matthew's gospel in contemporary terms. Uses Greek words to highlight important points in the narrative. A clear presentation.
• *Stott, John Robert Walmsey. Christian Counter-Culture: The Message of the Sermon on the Mount. Downers Grove, Ill.: InterVarsity Press, 1978. A work of rare brilliance. Demonstrates the relevance of the Bible to the needs of believers. Should enjoy widespread acceptance.
• Thomas, Robert L., and Stanley N. Gundry, eds. The NIV Harmony of the Gospels with Explanations and Essays. San Francisco: Harper and Row, 1988. Builds upon the exemplary work of J. A. Broadus and A. T. Robertson. Retains the strengths of Harmony of the Gospels and refines the sequence of entries to follow a more accurate and reliable chronology. The essays--all 12 of them--deal with the legitimacy of developing a harmony of the gospels; Source, Form, and Redaction Criticism; the language Jesus spoke; the genealogies of Matthew and Luke; and much more. An indispensible work.
• Thompson, William G. Matthew's Story: Good News for Uncertain Times. New York: Paulist Press, 1989. A clear introduction to Matthew as story theology for Christians who wish to have their faith stimulated.
• *Toussaint, Stanley Dale Behold the King : a study of Matthew by Toussaint, Stanley D . Portland, Oreg.: Multnomah Press, 1980. A work that expounds the theme of Matthew's gospel in the most able manner. Toussaint's exposition is based on a thorough exegesis of the text. He unfolds Matthew's purpose in writing about Jesus as the Messiah and convincingly demonstrates that He is Israel's long awaited King. The kingdom is shown to be the central theme of Matthew's gospel. It is fair to say that Tousssaint has produced a work that places all Bible-believing Christians in his debt. Recommended.
• Vos, Howard Frederick. Matthew: A Study Guide Commentary. Grand Rapids: Zondervan Publishing House, 1979. A careful presentation. Of value to lay readers.
• *Wagner, Gunter, ed. An Exegetical Bibliography of the New Testament: Matthew and Mark. Macon, Ga.: Mercer University Press, 1983. A work of immense value. Originally published by off-set printing from cards, this work now has the type completely reset. It contains information found in books and 248 journal articles covering every verse in these two gospels. A most important resource tool.
• Walvoord, John Flipse. Matthew: my Kingdom Come. Chicago: Moody Press, 1974. In this book we have a modern attempt to expound Matthew's gospel thematically. Though it lacks a solid introduction, this commentary deserves a place in the library of the expository Bible teacher and preacher. Recommended. First published in 1974, this valuable contribution follows a consistent method of interpretation that ably expounds the theme of Matthew’s gospel. Users of this commentary will find something worth noting on every page.
• Watson, Thomas. The Beatitudes: An Exposition of Matthew 5:1-12. New ed. London: Banner of Truth Trust, 1971. A Puritan work originally published in London in 1660. Deeply devotional but fails to interpret this passage in the light of the writer's theme.
• White, Reginald Ernest Oscar. The Mind of Matthew Philadelphia: Westminster Press, 1979. Though he uses the form-critical approach to Matthew's gospel, the author nevertheless has grasped the thematic structure of the evangelist's narrative, and he explains the purpose of this canonical book accordingly.
• Wiersbe, Warren Wendell. Live Like a King: Making the Beatitudes Work in Daily Life. Chicago: Moody Press, 1976. A devotional masterpiece. Practical, relevant, rich in insights, and rewarding in its application of truth to life. This brief work deserves to be read slowly and carefully. Wiersbe recognizes the present and future implications of the “Sermon on the Mount,” and expounds the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:1-16) with God’s Kingdom program in mind. Here is a work that is rich in insights and spiritual application. Each message deals with the realities of living the Christian life as a “King’s kid.” Recommended.
• Wiersbe, Warren Wendell. Wiersbe’s Outlines on the New Testament. Wheaton, IL: Victor Books, 1992. This is a book of exceptional merit. Pastors, missionaries, and Christian workers will profit from its use. Wiersbe introduces each book of the NT, provides an outline, and then furnishes his readers with a chapter-by-chapter discussion of the contents. The homiletic style is a “plus.” Recommended.
• Wilkins, Michael J. The NIV Application Commentary. Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 2004. Wilkins writes: “The gospel of Matthew … was the most widely read and frequently used of any of the four Gospels in the formative years of the church.” Using the text of the NIV, the writer explains the plan and purpose of the first gospel. His treatment is very full, and his application of the text to life is refreshing.
• Zodhiates, Spiros, comp. The Complete Word Study Dictionary: New Testament. Iowa Falls, IA: World Bible Publishers, 1992. This is a monumental tome that is divided into two parts: (1) A Translation Reference Index (pp. 1-55) arranged in alphabetic order according to the English word. The reference number(s) to part 2 is given together with any significant Biblical reference; and (2) the dictionary itself (pp. 57- 1505) containing 5,642 discussions of Greek words. The treatment is just what a user with little or no knowledge of a Greek word will find helpful. The word is located by means of the Translation Reference Index. All things considered, this is a most useful lay level dictionary.

STANLEY TOUSSAINT

• The Kingdom in Matthew 13
• Borrow - Behold the King : a study of Matthew by Toussaint, Stanley D . Portland, Oreg.: Multnomah Press, 1980. A work that expounds the theme of Matthew's gospel in the most able manner. Toussaint's exposition is based on a thorough exegesis of the text. He unfolds Matthew's purpose in writing about Jesus as the Messiah and convincingly demonstrates that He is Israel's long awaited King. The kingdom is shown to be the central theme of Matthew's gospel. It is fair to say that Tousssaint has produced a work that places all Bible-believing Christians in his debt. Recommended.

JAMES MORISON

• Hiebert comments on "A Practical Commentary on the Gospel According to St. Matthew" (1895) - The lengthy introduction covers critical problems and supports traditional Matthean authorship. This volume of some 650 closely printed pages offers a thorough interpretation by an accomplished conservative scholar of the previous century. It shows wide acquaintance with the scholarly work on the gospel to his day. (Ed: His comments are verse by verse, phrase by phrase, often with a devotional "flavor.")

• D Edmond Hiebert - Long recognized as an outstanding commentary on Matthew (first published in 1909). It provides a scholarly handling of the critical problems and gives a balanced interpretation of the gospel, for the most part conservative. Does not accept apostolic authorship.
• Rosscup - Any work by Plummer is helpful, for he possessed a keen ability to write with clarity and deep scholarship. He is good in the Greek and historical background, and does not dodge problems, though he at times takes a liberal view. He was amillennial in eschatology. He held a position which the liberals of his day considered too conservative and which the conservatives reckoned too liberal. This commentary is valuable. He holds to a non-Matthean authorship of the book.
• Cyril Barber says "this work remains one of the best treatments of Matthew's gospel ever written."

Matthew Commentary

Not futuristic on Mt 24:15-28

Watch an interesting overview of G Campbell Morgan by Pastor Skip Heitzig.

Hiebert - The prince of biblical expositors covers the entire gospel in a series of seventy-three biblical expositions. This volume on Matthew is the best of his expository volumes on the four gospels. Does not deal with critical introductory problems. The volume requires careful and intent reading, and offers many rich spiritual insights into Matthew's gospel.
