DAVIS' NOTES ON MATTHEW by William Hersey Davis. 109 pages; paper; Broadman Press, Nashville; $1.50. For-a brief survey of the First Gospel, this is a fair exposition in the main. It is based on the central theme of the Kingdom of God as offered to the Jewish nation, publicly rejected, and Jesus' then turning away from the nation.
