Summary: "The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 47: Matthew" is a religious text that serves as one of the four Gospels, likely written in the late 1st century AD. This Gospel presents the life, teachings, and works of Jesus Christ, focusing particularly on His role as the Messiah and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. The narrative includes key events such as His birth, baptism, miracles, parables, and teachings, with notable emphasis on the Kingdom of Heaven. The opening of this Gospel outlines the genealogy of Jesus Christ, linking Him to significant figures like Abraham and David, establishing His lineage and Davidic right. It then transitions into the story of His conception by the Holy Spirit and birth to the Virgin Mary, followed by Joseph’s hesitant but divinely guided acceptance and protection of them. The narrative introduces key themes, such as the fulfillment of prophetic scripture, and sets the stage for the subsequent ministry of Jesus. Through the genealogy and the account of His birth, the opening establishes Jesus' divine identity and His connection to the history and faith of the Jewish people.
