Matthew - NIVAC

This commentary draws lessons from three groups of people surrounding Jesus. First are his disciples to whom Jesus expresses his most important teachings with the expectation that someday they will pass them on. Next are his enemies, a "lost cause," for they consistently misread his teachings and twist them so that they can destroy him. The large, un-committed group in the middle, will eventually have to make a decision, for when all is said and done, no one can remain neutral to Jesus.
