Matthew – Titles, Notes, and Questions is a Teaching Commentary, all 28 chapters using the classic Authorized Version. Instead of densely packed words, verses are arranged by “thought lines” making easier perception. All caps, underscoring, lists (1.2.3.) are used with the following adaptations: a) Some use of modern spellings, b) Quotation marks show conversation, c) He, Him, His for God are capitalized, d) Some missing italics (not in original). 676 questions have suggested answers at end of the chapter. Who? What? Where? When? & Why? make jumping-off points for deep discussion and learning; 300 pages $15. Others are smaller at $8.
BROTHER WEBB

BROTHER WEBB [J D Webb, Sr., father of Orlow]
Sometime last month you had a birthday;
The exact date, I’m sorry, I forgot.
You turned eighty-five, 85, I say.
Eighty-five years Brother, is a lot.
2
Four score and five is almost enough
To be antique. (Don’t be offended,
Antiques, you know, I love in the rough,
So stick with me till I’m ended.)
3
You’ve lived to see the horse-less carriage,
Turn from touring car to streamline.
And conversely the steam, steel-horse rage,
Once strong, you’ve seen fully decline.
4
The airplane you saw at its outset,
Not dreaming that soon, oh, so soon,
The bi-plane would give way to the jet,
And you’d live to see “men on the moon.”
5
As I’d mention a “great,” you’d known him:
Rees, Fleming, Culp, Uncle Bud, and Ruth,
Anderson, Stalker, and Wireman.
You’ve been privileged to hear preach the truth.
6
You have lived and known such a spectrum,
Of the past, and ones who have gone on.
You’re the one for me, who connects them,
A living, Godly historian.
7
So I’m glad to have had you Brother,
As pastor, advisor, and friend.
With wishes for many another,
These (late) birthday greetings I send.
– eab, Feb. ‘75
