Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Matthew is Richard Francis Weymouth’s modern English translation of the Gospel of Matthew, designed to make the biblical text more accessible to contemporary readers without losing its original meaning. The Gospel of Matthew is one of the foundational texts of the New Testament, focusing on Jesus Christ as the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and His role as the Messiah and King of the Jews.In this translation, Weymouth presents the teachings and events of Jesus’ life with clarity, from His genealogy and birth to His death and resurrection. The Gospel of Matthew includes key elements such as the Sermon on the Mount, the Beatitudes, and the Lord's Prayer, all of which are central to Christian ethical teachings. Matthew's emphasis on the Kingdom of Heaven and the necessity of living a righteous life are brought out in modern, understandable language, while maintaining the profound spiritual lessons of the text.
