Scholars tell us that none of the gospels was an eyewitness account. This is evidenced in the case of Matthew's Gospel by the fact that the Gospel was written in Greek and the author used Mark's Gospel as his primary source of information about the life and mission of Jesus. Had the author been an eyewitness, he would surely have written an original account.

What gospel is the longest gospel?
The Gospel of Luke is the longest gospel in the New Testament. It contains 24 chapters and provides a detailed account of the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Which gospel writer did not include accounts of Jesus birth?
AnswerThe earliest of the New Testament gospels, now known as Mark's Gospel, did not include an account of the birth of Jesus. THese accounts were added by the authors of Matthew and Luke.The author of John knew Luke's account of the birth of Jesus, but did not include it in his gospel. In fact, he suggests that he did not even believe that Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
Which gospels records Jesus turning water into wine?
The account of this miracle can be found in the Gospel of John, chapter 2: verses 3-11+46.
Was Paul or any of the authors of the four gospels an eyewitness to Jesus' miracles?
It is undisputed that Paul was not an eyewitness to the miracles that are recorded in the four gospels. Christian tradition hold that the Gospels according to Matthew, Mark and John were written by disciples of that name, who were eyewitnesses to some of the miracles that they reported. Since Christian tradition hold that Luke's Gospel was written by a young companion of Paul, then the author of this gospel was clearly not an eyewitness of the miracles. Matthew's Gospel was written in Greek and clearly used Mark's Gospel as its main source for the life of Jesus, as did Luke's Gospel. This can be shown because whenever Matthew and Luke agree with Mark, the Greek words are almost identical, something that could not have occurred if Matthew was relying on personal memory. Whenever Matthew and Luke agree on sayings of Jesus, that are not in Mark's Gospel, they use identical words for the sayings, but place them in different contexts and even different times of the ministry of Jesus. Scholars say they must have used as their sources a common document of sayings attributed to Jesus, a document now known as the Q Document, and created plausible contexts in which Jesus could have spoken those sayings. The fact that Matthew, as well as Luke, relied so heavily on Mark and the Q Document means that this author could not have been an eye-witness to the miracles. John's Gospel was also written in Greek and shows evidence of borrowing much of its material from Luke's Gospel. Once again, this author could not have been an eye-witness to the miracles. Only the author of Mark's Gospel could have been an eye-witness to the miracles, but much evidence internal to this gospel indicates that he was really writing a second-hand account. In summary, none of these authors was an eye-witness to the miracles.

Did Matthew write in the Bible?
A:Matthew, one of the twelve disciples, was credited in the second century with writing the gospel that now bears his name but was originally anonymous. However, modern scholars say that the gospel could not have been written by an eyewitness to the events described. One of the reasons for this is that it has been demonstrated by a parallel reading in the original Greek language that Matthew's Gospel was substantially based on that of Mark. An eyewitness would never have copied another account so closely. This means that Matthew did not write the gospel or any other book in the Bible.
