St. Matthew turned to Jesus because he was called by Jesus to follow him. Matthew, also known as Levi, was a tax collector before encountering Jesus. When Jesus called him, Matthew immediately left his profession and followed Him, acknowledging Jesus' authority and responding to His invitation to discipleship.
In Matthew and Luke the temptor is called the devil. (NIV)
This was the first year of Jesus' ministry, so it would be 29-30AD.
When selected by Jesus he was called Matthew.
That would be Matthew, who Jesus called as he walked by his booth on the street. The tax collectors were a despised bunch because they generally collected more than was necessary and pocketed the difference.
Saint Matthew, a tax collector, was called by Jesus to follow him. Matthew immediately left everything to become one of the twelve apostles. This calling marked the beginning of his journey as a disciple of Jesus.
Saint Matthew's death by martyrdom earned him his saint hood by the Catholic Church. Saint Matthew was one of the 12 Apostles chosen by Jesus.
Levi was his original name. If we compare Mark 2:14 + Matthew 9:9, we can see that by the time he became a follower of Jesus, he was known by two names. Whether he was given the name 'Matthew' by Jesus, the Bible doesn't say.(Mark 2:14+15/Luke 5:27-29)
earth : D ANSWER: It appears by Matthew 9: and Mark 9: if you read what happens before Matthew is called that Jesus is in Capernaum (Jesus' own city was Capernaum during His ministry) Matthew (Levi) was a tax collector and probably lived at Capernaum by the Sea of Galilee.
30 times in Matthew.
Yes, Matthew was one of the twelve disciples of Jesus.
