Where was Matthew the Apostle born?
The Gospel of Matthew was originally written anonymously and only attributed to the disciple whose name it now bears, later in the second century. Scholars say that the Gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events it portrays, so there is no good reason to believe that the disciple Matthew was really the author. Therefore there is no good reason to believe that the author, traditionally referred to as Matthew the Evangelist, was born in either Galilee or Judea.We do not know where Matthew's Gospel was written, although it is known to have been written in Greek Koine, the lingua franca of the Near East. With no other information known about the authorship of Matthew, other than that it was written between 80 and 90 CE, the best information is that Matthew the Evangelist was most probably born somewhere in the Near East.
