Overview of Book of Matthew Chapters 1-13
Friday, January 1
Read Matthew 1
Think About It:
- Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are the four Gospels. What does “gospel” mean?
- What is the good news these four gospels bring that all of the rest of the Bible points to or stems from?
- If Abraham was born in 1996 B.C., approximately how many years passed before the birth of Jesus?
- Why is it important that this record is accurate?
Family Time:
- Matthew’s genealogy begins with whom and ends with whom? (verses 2 and 16)
- What is the meaning of Emmanuel? (verse 23)
