“…Die opmerking hierbo wat Hill in 1980 gemaak het, is ook vandag na sewe jaar nog steeds van toepassing op Kingsbury. Hill het in 1984 skerp kritiek uitgespreek op 'n artikel waarin Kingsbury (1984) na aanleiding van die vertelkunde Matteus se Jesusbeeld beskryf het. Kingsbury het in hierdie artikel interessante sake in verband met God as karakter in die evangelie aangedui en ons sal nie Hill se kritiek hierop in alle opsigte kan toegee nie.…”

“…Kingsbury (1986) se boek, M atthew as story, is een van die nuutste narratologiese studies van die Matteusevangelie. Hoewel Kingsbury (1986: 1-2) in sy inleidende paragraaf na sowel Uspenski as Petersen se betrokke werke verwys, hou sy hantering van Jesusbenaminge in hoofstuk 2 en 5 (vgl ook Kingsbury 1984Kingsbury : 1985 nie veel meer in as die resultate wat hy met sy vroeëre redaksie-kritiese werke behaal het nie (kyk veral Kingsbury 1975a en die kritiese opmerkings van Hill 1984 n a v van Kingsbury se artikel wat in 1984 gepubliseer is).…”

Emmanuel as the Torah Incarnate: The names of ]esus in Matthew's storyTwo tendencies in traditional titular Christology are indicated as methodologically and theologically inadequate. Alternatively, the more prominent names of Jesus are discussed as means by which the narrator in Matthew's story characterises Jesus as the fulfiller of the law and the prophets. The Matthaean Jesus can as such be depicted as Emmanuel, the Torah Incarnate. The names dealt with are Teacher, Rabbi, Kyrios, Son of David, Prophet, Messiah, King of the Jews, Son of man and Son of God.

Matthew's Jesus is typically described as the humble, compassionate messiah. This 2002 book argues that this is, however, only half the story. Matthew's theologically rich quotation of Isaiah 42.1–4, traditionally considered one of the four servant songs, underscores that manifest in Jesus' powerful message and deeds, particularly his healings and inclusion of the marginalized, is the justice that was thought to accompany the arrival of the kingdom of God. The study explores modifications to the text-form of the Isaianic citations, their relationship to the surrounding context, and the rhetorical force of the final form. It argues that the quotations are bi-referential, functioning on both a narrative and theological level, and also explores the issues surrounding the troublesome 'extraneous' content. It arrives at the conclusion that this citation was central to Matthew's understanding of Jesus' life and mission. All totalled, this study offers a refreshing exploration of Matthew's high, ethical Christology.
