10 Biblical Theme Map — Matthew (German)

Theme	Matthew references	Prior-package cross-reference	German rendering consistency note
Fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy	1:22-23; 2:6, 15, 17-18, 23; 4:14-16; 21:4-5; 27:9-10	(new emphasis in this pipeline; Matthew’s own recurring “that it might be fulfilled” formula)	Keep the fulfillment-citation formula consistent throughout: “auf dass erfüllet würde…”
Kingdom of heaven	5:3 and throughout	Romans’ kingdom_of_god	Reich der Himmel kept distinct from Reich Gottes; Matthew’s own vocabulary preference.
Deity and Sonship of Christ	1:23; 3:17; 9:1-8; 16:16; 17:1-8; 28:19	Romans deity_of_christ, son_of_god; Philippians 2:6-11; Colossians 1:15-20	Fourth and largest Christological treatment in this pipeline’s German curriculum; Sohn Gottes vocabulary consistent throughout.
Law and its fulfillment	5:17-48; 22:34-40; 23:23	Galatians law_and_grace	Gesetz kept confined to the Mosaic Law; the antitheses intensify rather than abolish it.
The church	16:18; 18:15-20	Romans church; Ephesians unity_of_the_spirit	Gemeinde consistent; the founding narrative moment (16:18) is new to this pipeline.
Suffering, service, and atonement	20:28; 26:26-28; 27:11-26	Romans imputed_righteousness; Colossians certificate_of_debt	Lösegeld and the Words of Institution extend the atonement vocabulary established in the epistles into narrative form.
Final judgment and the age to come	24:1-25:46	Romans universal_human_accountability	Sheep-and-goats judgment (25:31-46) is Matthew’s most extensive treatment of final judgment in this pipeline to date.
