Thinking about studying Matthew? Start here. Every book of the Bible deserves to be read with an understanding of its big picture and historical setting—and Matthew is no different. Its deep roots in Jewish culture and tradition influence everything from its structure to its theology.
Dr. Will Varner joins FOI Equip to help us see Matthew more clearly and faithfully. He’ll also explore the debate over Matthean priority, asking whether Matthew or Mark came first. If Matthew is on your heart or in your study plan, you don’t want to miss this class!

Instructor Bio:
In this class, Dr. Tim Sigler joins Jewish believers Steve Herzig and Lorna Simcox to help us think biblically and lovingly about the next steps for a new Jewish believer in our lives.
In this class, Pastor Tommy Nelson shows that the Prophecy of the Seventy Weeks is not only understandable, but deeply meaningful. Come study God’s Word with us and gain confidence in understanding even the more challenging parts of Scripture.
In this class, Tom Simcox will help you see how the Gospel is woven throughout every part of Scripture. You’ll gain confidence to share God’s message of salvation, especially with Jewish friends, and see that the Gospel is not a new revelation.
