What was Peter's quote?

Who wrote the gospel in the New Testament between Matthew and Luke?
Most Christians accept the early and unanimous opinion of the church that the Second Gospel was written by John Mark. He was the son of Mary of Jerusalem, who owned a house there which the Christians used as a meeting place. Papias (about a.d. 110) quotes John the Elder (probably the Apostle John, though conceivably another early disciple) as saying that Mark, the associate of Peter, wrote it. Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Clement of Alexandria, and Origen, all agree.
What book in the New Testament has the most Old Testament quotes?
I would say Matthew. Matthew was written specifically for Jews, who believe in the Old Testament.Answer:The book of Revelation contains the most references to verses in the Hebrew Scriptures (the 'Old Testament'). Messiah ('Jesus') most often quoted verses in the books of Deuteronomy, Psalms, and Isaiah. Every writer in the Messianic Scriptures (the 'New Testament') made reference to verses in the 'Old Testament.'
Which gospel puts emphasis on the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy as a means of determining Jesus messanic status?
The Gospel According to St Matthew was apparently written specifically to convince the Jews that Christ was the Messiah promised by the Old Testament prophets, and therefore contains the most references to Old Testament scripture. All of the Gospel writers referenced writings of the ancient prophets to one degree or another, and even the Savior Himself referred to scriptures about His life and ministry, including quotes from Isaiah. Matthew, however, appears to have quoted the most. Mark apparently was writing to the Gentiles who would have been less grounded in the writings of Moses and other prophets. Luke's Gospel was written apparently to the same person referenced in Acts by the name of Theophilus. John is altogether different, preferring to show the Savior as a divine Son of God through His acts performed during his earthly ministry, but showing His true relationship with God as his literal Father.
What is Matthew the Aposlte's writing style?
There are many varied answers to this question. Simply put, Matthew is interested in the status of Jesus as the Jewish Messiah, and as such spends much time portraying him as such. He inserts five 'blocks' of Jesus' teaching, comparing it to the five books of Moses (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy), the 'Torah' or 'Pentateuch'. He also quotes much of the Old Testament scriptures that support Jesus' Messiahship and that he fulfils, and adds the genealogy of Jesus at the beginning, showing how he is the 'Son of David' as promised in the Old Testament. Matthew was probably written after Mark, as 99% of Mark is in Matthew, almost word for word.
Where did Matthew get the information for his gospel?
Matthew likely gathered information for his gospel from various sources, including oral traditions, written accounts, and possibly firsthand experiences. He may have also relied on the teachings of Jesus himself, as well as the testimonies of other disciples and eyewitnesses. The Gospel of Matthew contains a mix of unique material and content shared with the other Synoptic Gospels, suggesting a combination of sources used in its composition.
Was Matthew's Gospel originally written in Aramaic?
No, Matthew's Gospel was not written in Aramaic. Scholars tell us that it was written in Greek Koine. There are many explanations to show this, the most important being:Mark's Gospel was written in Greek. Mark was the principal source used by the author of Matthew, and whenever they agree, the words used are almost identical in the Greek language, which could only happen if Matthew was also written in Greek.The hypothetical 'Q' document was also written in Greek. It was a major source used by Matthew for sayings attributed to Jesus.When Matthew quotes Isaiah as supposedly prophesying that a virgin would have a baby, he was quoting from a flawed Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures, the 'Septuagint'. The actual Hebrew text does not mention a virgin, but says, "the young woman" will have a baby. Thus, scholars know that when the author referred to the Old Testament, he was reading the Greek translation, evidence that he would have written in Greek.
Who in the New Testament was the first person to refer to Jesus as 'Son of David'?
The first verse of the New Testament identifies Jesus that way: Matthew 1:1 - The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham: The first recorded instance of someone calling Jesus the "son of David" is in Matthew 9:27 - When Jesus departed from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out and saying, "Son of David, have mercy on us!" [Quotes from NKJV] Matthew wrote the book of Matthew.
