Matthew: An Introduction and Study Guide

The Basileia of the Heavens is Near at Hand

By: Elaine M. Wainwright

Recent decades have seen significant shifts in biblical scholarship opening up a range of ways of engaging the biblical narrative - both methodologically (the tools and techniques for engaging the text) and hermeneutically (the perspectives that inform an interpreter's approach to the text and to the interpretative task). It is these shifts that give shape to this introduction and study guide, so that students encounter not only the text of Matthew itself but also its rich lode of recent interpretation. Among aspects of 1st-century life brought to the fore by current social-scientific methodology are kinship, the honor and shame culture, and masculinity. Gender is another interpretative lens that has characterized the study of the Gospel of Matthew in recent decades and the Guide provides pathways through this rich literature. The guide to Matthew concludes with the most recent turn of the hermeneutical lens, namely an ecological perspective on what is perhaps the best-known text in Matthew, the Beatitudes. This final chapter is an example of how we can enter an old and familiar text like the Gospel of Matthew from yet another new critical direction.

A Sermon Preached on the Anniversary of the Boston Female Asylum for Destitute Orphans

By: Jonathan M. Wainwright

Jonathan Mayhew Wainwright I (1792-1854) was an Episcopal bishop. He was born in England in 1792 to Peter Wainwright and Elizabeth Mayhew. His father Peter was a tobacconist who emigrated from England to Boston before the American Revolution. Peter and Elizabeth returned to England for the birth of their first son in 1791. They didn't return to Massachusetts until eleven years later. Jonathan's siblings include: Jonathan Mayhew Wainwright (1791-? ); and Eliza Wainwright (1794-? ) who married Walter Channing. Jonathan graduated from Harvard College in 1812 and was instrumental in the founding of New York University. He was consecrated as a provisional Bishop for the Dioceses of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America in 1852 and was the rector of Trinity Church, Boston. He died in 1854. He was the author of A Sermon Preached on the Anniversary of the Boston Female Asylum for Destitute Orphans (1835).

Habitat, Human, and Holy

An Eco-Rhetorical Reading of the Gospel of Matthew

By: Elaine M. Wainwright

d104s are rhetorical; they have an effect; they shape the mind and emotions of the readers who engage the text. Readers, in their turn, attend to the rhetoric of a text through the interpretative lens they bring to their reading of the text at the same time as they are being shaped by its rhetoric. Elaine Wainwright's eco-rhetorical reading of the Gospel of Matthew explores this interplay of rhetoric and perspective. An ecological perspective or hermeneutic is relatively new within biblical studies. It continues to be shaped and formed. Lorraine Code's call to 'ecological thinking' as a new 'social imaginary' informs the ecological perspective that Wainwright brings to this particular reading of the Gospel of Matthew. It is attentive to the interrelationships of all Earth constituents, and functions as a lens through which one can read the entire Gospel of Matthew. Such a perspective functions well with the particular rhetorical approach that guides this ecological reading. This approach is attentive to a complex weaving of material and 'other-than-human' as well as human features into the fabric of the text: hence the title Habitat, Human and Holy. It is their interaction in the text that constructs its rhetoric and it is this that engages the ecological reader. The story of Jesus, Emmanu-el, as it unfolds in the carefully structured Gospel of Matthew, is here read using an ecological hermeneutic and a rhetorical way of reading. Significant new insights emerge at each step of the way.
