Matthew 27:9 - 27:10

Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg offers a reflection on Matthew 27:9-10, which places significant importance on prophecy from Zechariah 11. Gregg proposes that the identification of the prophecy in the New Testament is of little concern, and what is important is that Christians accept the teachings of the Bible. While some readers may interpret Matthew's citation of the prophecy as a mistake based on his inadvertent use of the wrong prophet, Gregg believes that overall, the accuracy of the Gospel account should not be called into question.
