TestAllThings: Let me rephrase the last sentence. These verses clearly point to the strong Jewish character of the Gospel of Matthew and the ministry of the Lord Jesus for His people, the lost sheep of the house of Israel. What the footnotes throughout the Gospel of Matthew try to prove is just the opposite, the Lord Jesus leaving the Jews to turn to the Gentiles. This, I think I have clearly proved, didn't happen until Acts 28.

While I agree with you about the "strong Jewish character of the Gospel of Matthew," how do you accommodate the "almost-gentile" character of Luke's Gospel? (See Luke 4.24-30) Also, Paul turned to the Gentiles as early as Acts 13.44-47 during Paul's first missionary journey.
