For Matthew it is clear that the kingdom of God is realised where the will of God is put into action. But what does Matthew's speech about the Kingdom of Heaven mean? What role does Jesus and the sovereignty of the Son of Man play? Christian Blumethal shows that for Matthew, Jesus irreversibly set in motion the process of establishing the kingdom of God on earth, and made those succeeding him responsible for continuing it.
