Matthew preached the Gospel for many years after the death of Christ, traveling throughout the Holy Land and finally meeting a martyr's death at the hands of pagans in Ethiopia. His final verse is his epitaph. "Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

When the ancient world was divided among the disciples for the spreading of the Gospel, Matthew was given Ethiopia, which was the region west and south of the Euphrates River.
