Incomplete for its lack of distinct authorship, a fully developed theology, and for manuscript omissions between 8:14 - 10:15, chapters 14 through 18, and everything following chapter 25, the Incomplete Commentary on Matthew was of monumental importance to theologians of the Middle Ages. Thomas Aquinas among these once remarked that he would rather possess a full and complete Incomplete Commentary on Matthew than to be mayor of the great city of Paris itself!
While at times reflecting Arian tendencies in a select few of his comments, the unknown 5th-century author nonetheless retains a sturdy overall compliance with orthodox Christianity and seeks to expound upon the meaning of Matthew's Gospel for all readers. Now available for the first time in English, this second volume of the Incomplete Commentary is an ideal resource for pastors, scholars, and students of Christian history and theology. Volume covers chapters 12-25 (excepting 14-18) of the Incomplete Commentary.
