The format makes it appropriate also for daily study.Tom Wright has completed a tremendous task: to provide comprehensive guides to all the books of the New Testament, and to furnish them with his own fresh translation of the entire text. Making use of his true scholar's understanding, yet writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Wright captures the urgency and excitement of Matthew's Gospel in a way few writers have. Each short passage is followed by a highly readable commentary with helpful background information. A glossary is included at the back of the book. The series is suitable for group study, personal study, or daily devotions.

"... Of commentaries accessible to the general reader, Tom Wright's Matthew for Everyone leads the field. Energetic, direct and forceful, it reads like the best sort of extempore preaching." -- Kirsty Anderson Reviews editor at Reader & Marion Gray Chair of editorial committess at Reader * The Reader Magazine *
"Each book is written in Wright's familiar, accessible language and can be used either individual or group study to enhance reader understanding of the Bible" -- Life and Work
" This enterprise is probably the most exciting thing to have happened in Christian education in Britain for many years" -- Expository Times
