Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problems that we set out to solve were: 1. How do I understand the Book of Matthew? 2. Since the Scriptures testify that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is a mystery, how do I know what the real message is in the Book of Matthew? 3. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is written in parables. Therefore, what technique can I use to find the real meanings and messages in the Book of Matthew? 4. How can I know that I have found the right message? 5. What are the spiritual themes, topics, and doctrines in the Book of Matthew, how do I locate them, and how do I understand them? 6. How many doctrines altogether did Jesus Christ teach in His 3-year Ministry? Those were the questions that prompted this book – Thematic Dictionary of Matthew – Intralingual Translation of Spiritual Themes. In the process, we developed 188 chapters in answers to all those questions. The first five chapters were devoted to academic and theoretical fundamentals that support the research carried out in this book, and they were mostly reproduced from my other published books as referenced at the beginning of each chapter. This has been a qualitative research in as much as it aligns with a Biblical constructivist paradigm of re-interpreting Scripture in a way that impacts spiritual and redemptive thought. We approached this research with methodical data collection from the Book of Matthew. In fact, we did a verse by verse reading and analysis of Matthew followed by an in-depth critical analyses of Scripture and hypotheses, using both inductive and deductive reasoning in the process whereby, if Christians will verify and yield to the teachings contained in this book, their spiritual life would greatly advance to the acknowledgment of the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as recorded in the Book of Matthew. The research in this book also draws from two research methods: (1) Constructive Research methods, using the Perfect Harmony Theory of Translation and Interpreting (Pryce, 2011), by which we developed solutions to some 1,774 Scripture questions on multiple platforms, producing some 7,000 plus pages of Scripture Research, Bible Commentary, and other Christian books in the process. The full list of all my 99 books are listed at the end of this book. The second research method used in this book is the Empirical Research by which we tested the feasibility of the Perfect Harmony Theory for Translation and Interpreting (Pryce, 2011) to discover scriptural solutions to relevant questions.
