Exploring the origins, structure, and reception of the Gospel of Matthew
This guided study examines how the Gospel came to be, how it is organized, and how it has been received over time. It combines careful analysis with notes, an index, and a map to help readers understand the text in its historical context.
Grounded in scholarship, this edition asks practical questions about authorship, language, and the relationships among the first three Gospels. It clarifies how early readers viewed Matthew and how later scholars have debated the Synoptic question, while outlining what this means for reading the Gospel today.

Excerpt from St. Matthew: Introduction, Authorized Version, Revised Version With Notes, Index and Map
An inquiry into the origin of the first of our four gospels meets at once with some positions apparently well established. Such are the following: -
1. The gospel was universally regarded by the ancient church as the work of Matthew (or Levi), one of the twelve apostles.
2. The same tradition uniformly stated that Matthew wrote his gospel in the language of his own people, i.e. in Aramaic, the vernacular of Palestine, and for the special benefit of believers among them.
3. Yet the gospel, as we know it, was composed in Greek, and the Hebrew original was lost at a very early period. The oldest manuscripts of the New Testament, or of any part of it, left to us are in Greek. Syriac and Latin versions - supposed to belong to the end of the second century - depend on this Greek version. Justin Martyr (A.D. 140), the writer of the Didache (A.D. 120), and Clement of Rome (A.D. 95) appear to have known it. For the churchmen of later days the Greek Matthew was as apostolic as the Aramaic. Jerome (A.D. 390) certainly speaks of the Aramaic as the authentic Matthew, of which he had found a copy at Cæsarea and another at Berea, which he translated.
