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

4.8 Rating 161 Reviews
The newest version of Alabasters Gospel of Matthew is beautiful - I'm overly impressed, because their first edition was already so well done! I received a copy of the book complimentary through Alabaster's Influencer Program, and am excited to get my hands on the print itself. I love Alabaster's books not only because they're a pretty to set out on a coffee table, but they actually encourage me to dive into scripture. Lately I have been using the margins to write down what I'm learning, and how the Lord is revealing himself through scripture. Highly recommend getting your hands on a copy, and gifting one to a friend!

Matthew is one of the four “gospel” books of the Bible. It was the first gospel book to be written so naturally it peeked my interest first when I really began studying these four books again recently. This book is written from an eye witness of a disciple, friend and follower of Jesus Christ. I did not take the pages lightly as I poured over them thinking what it must have been like to have been standing right next to Jesus when miracles were performed, when he loved the broken, and saved the world. The lessons from the “sermon on the mount” will forever be my favorite part of the book of Matthew! It changed my life in how I live day to day because of the teachings of Jesus. Jesus says that his way and his kingdom is different from this world. This upside down kingdom is hard because it goes against the ways of my flesh but man these words of Jesus made me want to eagerly change my heart and actions and I am better because of it! *My copy of the book was complimentary through Alabaster's Influencer Program*

The photos correspond with the story of each chapter and gives you a visual glimpse. It's not too overwhelming, as if you were reading a picture book, yet compliments the essence of the reading. I like how the paragraphs are titled and inform you on what you're about to read. The overall look is modern, clean, and creative. This is something I will proudly have on my coffee table as decorative statement and more importantly as the Word of God. *My copy of the book was complimentary through Alabaster's Influencer Program*

Reading the Bible with the Alabaster books is what I didn't know I needed. Reading my normal Bible is great, but these just make the experience that much better. You can tell that every page, every image, every detail is thought out. I recommend these to everyone I know. I highly recommend buying a set, either for yourself or as a gift.
