Interviewer: Hello, thank you for joining us today. Can you start by telling us a little bit about yourself?
Author: Yes, my name is Matthew and I am one of the four Gospel writers of the New Testament.
Interviewer: Wonderful, thank you for being here. Can you talk to us about Matthew 20: 17-19?
Author: Of course, in this passage, Jesus is predicting his death and resurrection for the third time to his disciples. He is specifically telling them that when they arrive in Jerusalem, he will be betrayed and handed over to the chief priests and teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked, flogged, and crucified. But on the third day, he will rise again.
Interviewer: That’s a powerful message. Why do you think it was important for Jesus to keep reminding his disciples of this?
Author: I believe Jesus knew that his death and resurrection were the ultimate sacrifice and victory over sin and death. It was important for his disciples to fully understand the gravity of the situation and to prepare them for what was to come. It was also a message of hope, that despite his death, he would rise again and fulfill the prophecies of the Messiah.
Interviewer: How do you think this message still applies to us today?
Author: I think it’s a reminder that our faith is rooted in the ultimate sacrifice and victory of Jesus Christ. His death and resurrection paved the way for our salvation and eternally life. It’s a message of hope and one that we can cling to in difficult times, knowing that he overcame death and can bring us through any challenges we may face.
Interviewer: Thank you for sharing your insights with us today.
Author: My pleasure.
According to evangelical Christian belief, the author of the Gospel of Matthew is the apostle Matthew. Matthew was a tax collector before Jesus called him to follow Him. He was one of the twelve disciples and was present during many of Jesus’ teachings and miracles.
In Matthew 20: 17-19, Jesus predicts his death and resurrection for the third time to his disciples. This passage is significant because it reveals Jesus’ ultimate purpose in coming to earth as the Messiah and shows His willingness to submit to God’s plan for His life.
Many evangelical Christians believe that the Gospel of Matthew was written in the 50s or 60s AD, and it was intended for a Jewish audience. The Gospel of Matthew highlights Jesus’ teachings as the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy and emphasizes Jesus as the Son of God and Messiah.
Overall, evangelical Christians believe that the Gospel of Matthew is an inspired and authoritative account of Jesus’ life and teachings, written by one of His closest disciples.
