Join me on this journey as I document the road to Tokyo for the many teams that hope to compete on the Olympic stage at the summer games. I have traveled from Italy to Mexico prior to the shutdown, then back to Florida as the tournament schedule resumed, to not only report on the events, but also to get a true, authentic understanding of what baseball brings to these various cultures around the world.

The Good News According to Matthew is a book from the World Messianic Bible also known as the World English Bible: Messianic Edition (WEB:ME), which is a public domain translation of the Holy Bible into modern English.

Most historians agree that John Mark is the author of this account of the good news and it may have been one of the first Gospels written. What also distinguishes this book among the other Gospels is the emphasis of the suffering of Yeshua. This could have been due to the fact that during the time in history around 65 AD, Christians in Rome were experiencing great persecution. Some believe that Mark was attempting to emphasize Yeshua’s suffering in order to bring comfort and encouragement to the Church which was suffering as a whole.

It is still unknown as to who the original author was of The Good News According to Matthew. Some scholars believe the author to have been Matthew himself, also known as Levi, a former tax collector and one of Yeshua’s 12 disciples. Some regard the The Good News According to Matthew as the most important of all the gospels as it shows the transition from the Old and New Testament in its explanation of the immaculate conception, teaching of the early church, Judaism and the law, and a detailed account of the life and death of Yeshua the Messiah.
