Where others see only narrative, J. Clowes searches for the living depth of the Word. In this distinctive Gospel of Matthew commentary, the sacred text is translated afresh from the original Greek and illustrated by carefully chosen extracts from the theological writings of Emanuel Swedenborg, so that the teachings of Jesus are explained with unusual clarity and reverence. These pages invite slow reading. Combining close textual attention with a concern for the spiritual meaning of Scripture, Clowes adds his own notes and observations to every chapter, creating an annotated New Testament study that serves equally well as a Bible study reference book and a sermon preparation commentary. The result is an illustrated Bible commentary in which Swedenborgian Bible interpretation and Swedenborgian New Church theology are set alongside an Anglican pastor's pastoral insight, a meeting-place of reason, devotion and 19th century Christian theology. It is a compelling English language Christian classic for readers who wish to move beyond surface readings into the inner sense of the Gospel. For those engaged in Emanuel Swedenborg theology study or simply curious about historic approaches to the text, this volume opens a window onto an era when faith, scholarship and visionary exegesis were intimately intertwined. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
