The Gospel of Matthew Softcover / New Living Translation (NLT) Reviews

4.8 Rating 161 Reviews
The book of Matthew is a great addition to my ever-growing collection by Alabaster Co. I just love how this exceeds any of the other gospels and indicates that Matthew had the Jewish population in mind when he sat down to write. The connections between Jesus and the Old Testament provide ample prophetic evidence for Jesus’s ministry but also give contemporary readers a glimpse into how first-century readers approached the Old Testament with a Christ-centered mind-set. Overall this redesigned book is not just beautiful, but it’s powerful! I received a complimentary copy of this book through Alabaster’s influencer Program. Personally this book has allowed me to dive in deeper in God’s Word, enhancing my daily readings and devotional time. Thanks again for such a wonderful addition to my library of the beautiful Alabaster Co. Bible Collection!

Alabaster never fails to amaze me with its beautiful portrayal of the Word. The images in the Gospel of Matthew compliment the Scripture so well and visualize the stories so creatively. I love how the thematic blue hues are carried throughout the book. As for the other Gospel books, I love how they each have their own thematic color! I love the Gospels because we get to look into the window of Jesus’ heart through these words. Reading through this particular publication of Matthew is just a beautiful reading experience in general because of the images, formatting, and creativity. Get these books!! I’m a senior in college and having Alabaster books out on my coffee table in my apartment is always so fun because they catch the eyes of even college students. They’re beautiful and irresistible! I received a complimentary copy of the book through Alabaster’s Influencer Program but all thoughts and opinions are my own!

The Biblical authors used so many examples of nature to describe character, feelings, attributes, etc. Are modern culture just doesn't think that way as much. We use words and descriptions to explain something. But what Alabaster has done has helped us bridge those two styles...getting our minds to think more like the Biblical authors wrote...to read beyond just the text, and to explore visuals, using both art and nature to work in harmony with the text. And it is really beautiful.

I love the book of Matthew, and Alabaster has done an incredible job yet again! Just reading the first few chapters I’m reminded that everything will happen in God’s perfect timing. Through what seems like the long and hard seasons, I am able to hold onto the hope that one day God’s will is going to be fulfilled. My copy of the book was complimentary through Alabaster’s Influencer Program.
