Matthew 5:17-20 (Four Contexts) – An Academic Lecture
Manage episode 407946487 series 3525486
This is a recording of an academic lecture given by Professor Solberg on July 19, 2023.
Abstract: Matthew 5:17–20 is a passage of particular interest because it serves as a proof text for the theology of Torahism (aka Hebrew Roots, Torah-keepers.) So correctly understanding this passage will shed valuable light on that discussion. Because this text stands alone and is not explicitly connected to the text that precedes or follows it, we’re going to exegete its meaning through an analysis of four ever–widening contexts. First, in its immediate literary context; second, in the broader context of the Sermon on the Mount; third, within the gospel of Matthew; and lastly, within the metanarrative of Scripture.
