Why was Matthew written to the Jews?
A:There are two principal reasons that Matthew's Gospel has traditionally been thought to have been written for Jews. The first is the traditional attribution of this originally anonymous gospel to the disciple Matthew and the second is its extensive use of references from the Old Testament .Modern New Testament scholars now say that the Gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events portrayed, which rules out Matthew as the real author. They also point to clear evidence that the Gospel was written in Greek, meaning that it was written for a Greek-speaking audience. Its Old Testament references were taken from the Septuagint and include errors that Palestinian Jews would hve quickly recognised. Matthew's Gospel may perhaps have been written for Jews of the Greek-speaking diaspora, but not for Palestinian Jews.

Who wrote Matthew's Gospel and who was he writing to?
A:It is easy to believe that because the book is known as Matthew's Gospel, it must have been written by the disciple Matthew and therefore written by a Jew to his fellow Jews in Palestine. That has been th Christian consensus for centuries. However, although this disciple would have known Aramaic and, possibly Hebrew, Matthew was written in Greek, a strange choice if he wanted to communicate with Palestinian Jews for whom Greek was a foreign language that many would not even have understood, as well as being a symbol of foreign domination. In fact, the attribution to Matthew, and therefore the name 'Matthew's Gospel', comes from the second century. Before then, the gospel was unsigned and anonymous. So we do not know who the author was, nor to whom the author was writing.
