Matthew’s Gospel shows that Jesus was Israel’s king and long-awaited Messiah. In Insights on Matthew 1–15, Chuck Swindoll explores the announcement, arrival, proclamation, and reception of the king. Chuck’s deep insight, signature easygoing style, and humor bring a warmth and practical accessibility not often found in commentaries.

The Swindoll’s Living Insights New Testament Commentary series draws on 13-time Christian Book Award winner Chuck Swindoll’s more than 50 years of studying and preaching God’s Word. Each volume includes both the NLT and NASB translations of the Bible, verse-by-verse commentary, charts, maps, photos, key terms, and background articles with practical application. A must-have for pastors, teachers, and anyone else who is seeking a deeply practical resource for exploring God’s Word.

Charles R. Swindoll is the founder and senior pastor–teacher of Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, Texas. But Chuck's listening audience extends far beyond a local church body, as Insight for Living airs on major Christian radio markets around the world. Chuck's extensive writing ministry has also served the body of Christ worldwide, and his leadership as president and now chancellor of Dallas Theological Seminary has helped prepare and equip a new generation of men and women for ministry. Chuck and his wife, Cynthia, his partner in life and ministry, have four grown children, and seven great-grandchildren.
