Summary "Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Matthew" by Richard Francis Weymouth is a modern English translation of the Gospel of Matthew, presumably written during the early 20th century. This work aims to present the teachings and the accounts of Jesus Christ in a language that is accessible and engaging to contemporary readers. The book covers significant events such as the birth of Jesus, the Sermon on the Mount, and various parables, emphasizing the themes of compassion, righteousness, and the Kingdom of Heaven. The opening portion of this translation begins by detailing the genealogy of Jesus, tracing His lineage back to Abraham and David, which establishes His significant heritage. It then narrates the miraculous circumstances of His birth, including the visit of the Magi and the subsequent warning to Joseph regarding King Herod's intentions to harm the child. Following this, the text introduces John the Baptist's ministry and the early actions of Jesus, such as His baptism and the calling of His disciples. It sets the stage for the teachings and miracles that characterize the remainder of the Gospel, highlighting Jesus's authority and the foundational principles of His message.
