	Gospel of Matthew - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is traditionally ascribed to Matthew the Evangelist.
		The relationship of Matthew to the Gospels of Mark and Luke is an open question known as the synoptic problem.
		It is generally agreed among scholars that the author of Matthew wrote his Gospel in Greek, independently of Luke, using the Gospel of Mark and an unknown second document as literary sources (this scenario is called the two-source hypothesis).

	USCCB - NAB - Matthew - Introduction
		The antitheses of the Sermon (Matthew 5:21-48) both accept (Matthew 5:21-30, 43-48) and reject (Matthew 5:31-42) elements of that law, and in the former case the understanding of the law's demands is deepened and extended.
		The time of the latter is unknown (Matthew 24:36, 44), and the disciples are exhorted in various parables to live in readiness for it, a readiness that entails faithful attention to the duties of the interim period (Matthew 24:45-25:30).
		Matthew's portrayal of Jesus in his passion combines both themajestic serenity of the obedient Son who goes his destined way in fulfillment of the scriptures (Matthew 26:52-54), confident of his ultimate vindication by God, and the depths of fear and abandonment that he feels in face of death (Matthew 26:38-39; 27:46).

	SparkNotes: The New Testament: The Gospel According to Matthew (Matthew)
		Matthew became the most important of all Gospel texts for first- and second-century Christians because it contains all the elements important to the early church: the story about Jesus’ miraculous conception; an explanation of the importance of liturgy, law, discipleship, and teaching; and an account of Jesus’ life and death.
		Because the Gospel of Matthew relies heavily on the earlier Gospel of Mark, as well as late first-century oral tradition for its description of events in Christ’s life, it is unlikely that the author of the Gospel of Matthew was an eyewitness to the life of Christ.
		Matthew is the most carefully structured of the Gospels: it proceeds through an introduction; five central segments, each designed with a concluding sermon that responds to the concerns raised in the preceding narrative; and a conclusion detailing Jesus’ Passion.

	Gospel according to Matthew
		The author of Matthew is believed to have used Mark and the theoretical source of Q as his sources when writing his compilation, while adding some new material as well.
		Central to the content of Matthew, is Jesus as the promised Messiah, as the descendant of King David.
		Matthew uses these stories to prove already from the start of the gospel that Jesus was the son of God, and he draws many lines back to prophecies in the Old Testament.

		This date allows time for Matthew to have access to Mark's Gospel, and suggests that he completed the Gospel before the destruction of the temple in AD 70, because it would seem strange for the author not to mention this event in light of chapter 24.
		Matthew uses the phrase, "kingdom of heaven," (the only author, in fact, to use this phrase) which can be considered as a "reverential Jewish expression" [12]—a term appropriate to a Jewish audience.
		Matthew constructed his body around five distinct discourses: the Sermon on the Mount (5:1-7:29), the Commissioning of the Apostles (10:1-42), Parables about the Kingdom (13:1-52), Relationships in the Kingdom (18:1-35), and the Olivet Discourse (24:1-25:46).

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Gospel of St. Matthew
		Gospel of Matthew was a reproduction of his preaching, and this we know, was in Aramaic.
		Matthew shows that it was because of its incredulity that Israel was excluded from the Kingdom, he dwells on all the events in which the increasing obduracy of the Jewish nation is conspicuous, manifested first in the princes and then in the hatred of the people who beseech Pilate to put Jesus to death.

	Commentary on the Gospel According to Matthew 6a
		It has also to be observed that the speech, "Offspring of vipers," etc., is said by Matthew to have been spoken to the Pharisees and Sadducees when coming to baptism, they being a different set of people from those who confessed their sins, and to whom no words of this kind were spoken.
		But Matthew, as the careful observer will see, does not speak of the multitudes in the way of praise, and he probably means the Baptist's address, Offspring of vipers, etc., to be understood as addressed to them also.
		Matthew alone adds the words "to repentance," teaching that the benefit of baptism is connected with the intention of the baptized person; to him who repents it is salutary, but to him who comes to it without repentance it will turn to greater condemnation.

		Irenaeus - Matthew wrote a gospel in the Hebrew language, while Peter and Paul were preaching the Gospel and founding the church in Rome.

	Gospel According to Matthew
		Matthew is generally held to have been written about AD 80, although scholars have argued for dates as early as 65 and as late as 100.
		He wrote the Gospel of Christ according to his own plans and aims, and from his own point of view, as did also the other "evangelists." As to the time of its composition, there is little in the Gospel itself to indicate.
		The main feature of this Gospel may be expressed in the motto, "I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil." As to the language in which this Gospel was written there is much controversy.

	The Origins of the New Testament: Chapter 5
		The early stories in Matthew, no less than those in Luke, are adhesions to the main body of the Gospel of which they constitute the preamble, and the part whose mythical character is most obvious; they are fables built up on biblical texts in fulfilment of prophecies.
		Gospels are concerned with is the symbolic presentation of their topics while unconcerned with their historical accuracy.
		Matthew is alone in daring to put oracles expressly concerning "the Church" into the mouth of Jesus (xvi, 18 and xviii, 7).

		Since Joseph and Mary have no dialogue in Matthew’s account of Jesus’ birth, the actors are reduced to silence, and we must infer from her pregnant state and their meaningfully troubled expressions what is happening between them.
		The Gospel According to Matthew is one of the few Jesus films in which Jesus is at once authoritative and forceful, and also unaffected and, for lack of a better term, persuasively human.
		In fact, the single least persuasive image in all of The Gospel According to Matthew may be the sight of Irazoqui’s hair glossy and unmussed in the center of the crown of thorns.

		The song's message is a call to action, a cry for spirituality, a dedication to Him with a capital "H." The song's sonority is harmonious and its arrangement familiar to any who might frequent a Southern Baptist service: a piano intro, wild individual singing, sturdy group harmonies and a soft ending.
		Or more to the point, it is not gospel as the genre is usually defined, the word of Christ in song.
		It is gospel in that it is symbolic of a strong belief in something.
