Gospel of Matthew

The Gospel of Matthew is the first book of the New Testament of the Bible, telling the story of Jesus as Israel's messiah, his resurrection, and his mission to the world. The traditional attribution of the gospel to the Apostle Matthew is disputed among scholars, who believe it was written by an anonymous Jew familiar with technical legal aspects of scripture in the last quarter of the first century. The gospel likely drew on the Gospel of Mark and the hypothetical sayings Gospel Q, with the author using a polished Semitic Greek to emphasize Jesus's place in the Jewish tradition and include details not found in Mark.learn more on wikipedia
