Women’s stories implying aspects of anti-Judaism with Christological depiction in Matthew
This study focuses on the women’s stories that imply aspects of anti-Judaism within Matthew’s
depiction of Christology, which is called Matthew’s theology. In fact, Matthew’s community
opposed the Jewish system and Jewish leaders and parted from its parent body. Even though
Matthew’s community was still similar to the Jewish system, it had significant differences as
well. The study discusses these aspects of anti-Judaism that appear in the woman’s stories that
include the genealogy of Jesus, the haemorrhaging woman, the Canaanite woman, and the
women at the cross and Jesus’ tomb. This study shows proof and examples of anti-Judaism
within the stories and thoroughly analyses them. Therefore, it can be confirmed that the
women’s stories imply aspects of anti-Judaism with Christological depictions by Matthew’s
theological tendency.
