"Scripture of Matthew"

"Matthew prefaces his narrative with 2 Chapters about Jesus's ancestry, conception, and infancy (Chapters 1-2) Matthew has a full chapter about Jesus's return from the grave and his final commission of The disciples Chapter 28) 

"Outline Matthew" 

"The body of Matthew's gospel stresses 2 main facts of Jesus's ministry teaching and preaching and healing 4:23) The Sermon on the Mount clearly illiterates his authoritative teaching 7:29) Chapters 8-9 p. on to group together 10 miracle stories mostly healing) to demo. his authority. in that realm too. Matthew 9:35 repeats the lang. of 4:23 very closely confirming that Chapters 5-9 belong as a unified section." "In his 2nd sermon Jesus calls and commissions the 12." "The next 2 Chapters of narrative, Jesus and his followers to that animarity 11:20) Chapter 13 has long been a turning point in Matthew's gospel, Matthew divides evenly into one half addressed to the crowds and public and one in private to the disciples." The final chapters describing Jesus's passion, death, and resurrection, balance the Chapters of Introduction." p. 207 Blomberg, Craig.) 

"Unique To Matthew"

1. Jesus as a teacher 

"He remains  in the wilderness 40 days and nights and prep. for his ministry and then gives hiss teaching from a mountain." Chapters 4-5)

2. Son of David King and Royal Messiah 

"It occurs 9 times, 8 times of which are unparalleled in any other gospel."

"The people who addressed Jesus as Son of David are the powerless ones in need of healing." 9:27) 

3. "A Heightened Son of God"

"Matthew's use of the term even more closely approaches the full-fledged divinity that later creeds and confessions made explicit." 

4. Wisdom Incinerate 

"In 12:42 Jesus wisdom is highlighted in John 11:19, and John the Baptist is said to vindicate God's wisdom." pages 210-211

Colleen Coble Interview

 Megan Jones  February 13th, 2023  Colleen Coble Interview  1.  Why did you want to write suspense? "I appreciate it when all the secrets of the past come back to haunt characters. I love the puzzle of a murder mystery and the trill of a heroine in danger. Annie is more than capable of becoming the ultimate overcoming heroine." 2. What inspired to want to write? "My writing process always starts with setting- weird I know. But I've found researching the setting springboards me to plot points and character details. I knew I wanted to set the series in Michigan's Upper Peninsula My readers are passionate about the Rock Harbor series so I wanted to have,  Annie  a part of that community. And I always like my main character to have an unusual profession. In researching I ran across law enforcement rangers or LEOs as they are called. The profession resonated with me because I could have a lot of wilderness scenes and interesting  situations." 3. A lot of your cha
