Description

In his influential article "The Gentile Bias in Matthew," Kenneth W. Clark argues not only that the primary orientation of the Gospel is to demonstrate that Gentiles have displaced Jews in the divine salvific plan but, moreover, that such a claim could have originated only from an author who was himself a Gentile. (1) This identification of the author's background stood in opposition to the universal consensus of Clark's day that Matthew was a converted Jew. However, Clark argued that the thesis of Gentile authorship aligned with the Matthean heilsgeschichtliche scheme, which was understood as depicting the transference of divine favor from the Jewish people to Gentiles who accepted the kerygma centered on Jesus. From this perspective Clark argued: The paradigm shift involved in Clark's thesis is illustrated by W. D. Davies and Dale C. Allison's table "Opinions on the Authorship of Matthew," (3) which traces scholarly views on the authorship of the Gospel from the work of H. J. Holtzmann in 1886 onward. It is possible to see in the table the monolithic view that the author was a Jewish Christian. (4) Not until the appearance of Clark's article was this consensus challenged in the modern era. (5)
