Matthew 5.1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:   2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Matthew Henry (18 October 1662 – 22 June 1714) was a nonconformist minister and author, born in Wales but spending much of his life in England. He is best known for the six-volume biblical commentary Exposition of the Old and New Testaments. By the age of nine, Henry was able to write Latin and read part of the Greek new testament. Henry was ordained on May 9th 1687 by a group of six nonconformist ministers. He presented a paper written in Latin as part of his ordination. He then became minister of a new Presbyterian congregation at Chester. Famous evangelical Protestant preachers such as George Whitefield and Charles Spurgeon used and heartily commended the work, with Whitefield reading it through four times – the last time on his knees.[14] Spurgeon stated, "Every minister ought to read it entirely and carefully through once at least."
