Four more notes about prophets are cited in this chapter in addition to the one from chapter 1. Can you find them? Jot down what each comment specifically addresses.
Throughout Matthew, keep a lookout for all these prophecies. Why would Matthew keep mentioning them? No doubt it was because his audience was waiting for something, and Matthew felt that they must not miss that it had come, that God was keeping his promises and that all his promises were leading up to this one gift, Jesus Messiah (another way of saying Jesus Christ).
