Shedinger rejects the traditional view that Matthew 4:16 is merely a corrupted version of Isaiah 9:2. Rather he feels that in the earliest version of Matthew this verse was a combination of Isaiah 9:2 and Psalm 107:10 , however later translators missed the second OT reference and over time altered the verse to make it conform more to Isaiah.
Matthew 4 is the fourth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament of Christian Bible. [1] [2] Many translations of the gospel and biblical commentaries separate the first section of chapter 4 (verses 1-11, Matthew's account of the Temptation of Christ by the devil) from the remaining sections, which deal with Jesus' first public preaching and the gathering of his first disciples.

Jesus' ministry in Galilee extends from this verse as far as Matthew 18:35.
Jesus caught him, and commenting on his lack of faith led him back to the ship, whereupon the storm stopped. Matthew also notes that the disciples called Jesus the Son of God. [1] The fact that the John account also lacks this detail suggests that this account of "St. Peter's venture" [6] is a redactional addition by Matthew. [7]
France notes that Matthew seems to only be interested in highlighting the locations, such that the grammatical links that make Isaiah 9:1 comprehensible are left out. [ 2 ] Yet the following OT verse ( Isaiah 9:2 ), which points towards the salvation of a Messiah, is quoted in full in the following NT verse; see Matthew 4:16 .
Matthew 4:13 is the thirteenth verse of the fourth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. In the previous verse, Jesus returned to Galilee after hearing of the arrest of John the Baptist .
