Scholars often explain Matthewâs practice of applying non-messianic texts to the messiah by postulating a Christological hermeneutic. In Matthewâs Non-Messianic Mapping of Messianic texts, Bruce Henning raises the question of how Matthew appliesmessianic texts to non-messianic figures. This neglected category challenges the popular view by stretching Matthewâs paradigm to a broadly eschatological one in which disciples share in the mission of Jesus so as to fulfill Scriptural hopes. Using Cognitive Linguistics, this volume explores four case studies to demonstrate Matthewâs non-messianic mapping scheme: the eschatological shepherd, the vineyard care-giver, temple construction imagery, and the Isaian herald. These reveal how Matthewâs theology of discipleship as participating in Jesusâ own vocation extends even to his hermeneutical paradigm of fulfillment.
Bruce Harold Henning, Ph. D (Trinity College â Bristol / University of Aberdeen, 2019), is a Professor of Bible and Theology at Emmaus Bible College. In additional to presenting at conferences, he has contributed to journals on intertextuality in the gospels.
Anyone interested in Matthewâs use of Scripture, particularly the use of his fulfillment motif, as well as anyone concerned with the overlap of Christology, Ecclesiology, and Eschatology.
