Congratulations to Bern Sadler!
Bern Sadler has become the first person to win the AMAIC’S ‘Goldensword’ award for his compelling identification of the structure of St. Matthew’s Gospel in his book, According to Matthew. The structure St. Matthew gave his gospel. Sydney, 2008. This book admirably qualifies for the AMAIC’S recently-established (May, 2008) ‘Goldensword’ award, described as follows in our Syllabus (see earlier post of 28th April 08 for a full description of this award):
The Goldensword Award
In the, presumably rare, case in which the Goldensword is awarded, the AMAIC will give a prize (according to means) to the successful candidate, as well as an attractive diploma. The successful submission will become a part of the AMAIC’S curriculum, and will be written up in our Newsletter, MATRIX, and advertised on the appropriate AMAIC Internet site.
Why The Goldensword?
It, combined with the constellation of the Southern Cross, is the AMAIC’s Emblem. (See post of 28th April 08 for a full description of this award):

The Toledoth in Matthew 1:1
It was thanks to Bern’s research that we were able to offer a plausible explanation for what had initially been quite a puzzle in relation to the only toledôt, apparently, that occurs in the New Testament.
Bern’s book is available upon request. Please write to:
