"A direct encounter with he text of Matthew. As such this work is vintage Morris, and it should provide valuable insights to those studying the Gospel and seeking a helpful resource from an evangelical scholar who has lived with the Greek New Testament for decades and whose love for the biblical message is obvious."

"Morris provides pastors and serious lay readers with a comprehensive, balanced, and informative commentary on the life, death, and ministry of Jesus. Attention to detail, extensive acquaintance with the language of the New Testament, familiarity with relevant secondary literature, and fair appraisal of critical hypotheses make this commentary a model of reliable and compelling scholarship."

Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

"Morris's Gospel according to Matthew fills a gaping hole in the shelf of New Testament commentaries. At last we have a work on Matthew that is worthy to take its place beside the major studies on the other gospels. Its thoroughness, clarity, and theological sensitivity will make it a treasured resource for all students of the Bible."
