Mike Wilkins earned his Ph.D. from Fuller Theological Seminary. He is the dean of faculty and professor of New Testament Language and Literature at Talbot School of Theology. Wilkins has had a 25-year relationship with Matthew's gospel. He has a passion for allowing God's Word to change us.

The commentary begins with eighteen pages of introduction, followed by an outline of the gospel and a bibliography. Each 'Text and Commentary' section contains the text from the NIV, Original Meaning, Bridging Contexts, and Contemporary Significance.

Wilkins intends to guide the readers through Matthew's written reflections, so that they might understand Matthew's theological intentions for his community and might allow Matthew's insights to penetrate their souls and lives.
