This devotional commentary contains a meditation for each passage in the Gospel of Matthew--120 in all--, accompanied by the complete text of Matthew from the RSV Bible. The focus is on the practical application of the Gospel to daily living.
For each Sunday and major feast day likely to be celebrated on a Sunday in Year B, Father Moloney comments on the gospel texts. He summarizes Mark's story of Jesus and reflects on how the particular gospel might lead us, as disciples of Jesus, to an understanding of God's call to live a Christian life.
