This is a study of Matthew's Gospel, presenting a chiastic structure of organization for the entire work. Seeing such a structure puts the testimony in a new and helpful light. The chiastic structure shows the early chapter units parallel in some way to the last chapter units, then later chapter units parallel to chapter units near to the end chapter units, and so on progressing toward the middle of the book, until finally the "center" of the whole Gospel is found - a center having no parallel but standing alone, as it were.
