Matthew/Year A

This page is an easy place to access the commentaries that I have prepared for the Gospel of Matthew over the years. The commentaries are arranged in Liturgical Year A order. It is not a complete coverage of the Gospel… but who knows… maybe one day. You are free to download and use for Bible Study, to evangelize, or anything that gives Glory to God. Enjoy.  (The commentaries are hopefully well documented and credit given to the scholars upon whose work I relied. Any failures in this area are my own and were not intentional.)
