If you wish to be reassured whether or to what extent the gospels are a true account of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, then you may need to know more about how, when and why Matthew was written, and by whom. You will also need to know what sources the author used.
Most Christians still believe that Matthew's Gospel was actually written by the apostle Matthew, an eyewitness to the life and mission of Jesus, thereby making this gospel a particularly accurate account. However, the Gospel was actually written anonymously around the eighties of the first century, so we have no signature to tell us who wrote this gospel. The only reason to believe that Matthew was the author is that the second-century Church Fathers decided to attribute this book to Matthew. However, modern scholars say that Matthew's Gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed, so eliminating Matthew as a possible author. We know approximately when Matthew was written, but do not know who wrote the book.
Matthew is known as a synoptic ('seen with the same eye') gospel because when placed alongside Mark and Luke in the original Greek language, thereby 'seen with the same eye', it can be shown that there is a literary dependency among the gospels. Matthew was clearly copied from Mark, and contains some 600 of the 666 verses in Mark. This dependency not only means that the author could not have been an eyewitness, it also means that we do not have any independent accounts that would verify the original story of Jesus, in Mark.

Since I know him personally and know his girlfriend, no he's not.
A:The first gospel to be written is Mark's Gospel, so we should assume that the apostle Mark was the first gospel author. However, the gospels were originally anonymous and only attributed by the Church Fathers to the apostles whose names they now bear, later in the second century. Biblical scholars say there is no good reason to attribute Mark's Gospel to the apostle Mark. This means we do not really know who wrote the first gospel.
Poor Saul Matthews died a while after he was given freedom. "I know the way in which the I will die, I will be free! I will be me! I will be one with myself and one with the whites!"
The bible never told us anything about Matthews early life so nobody doesnt really know about his early life.
