Matthew was a tax collector and by that occupation was shunned by most people. Tax collectors were viewed as traitors because they worked for the Roman government. Probably most of Matthew's acquaintances were fellow tax collectors and then when he became Jesus' disciple his main acquaintances were his fellow disciples. By being a tax collector, Matthew was helpful to Jesus' ministry to other tax collectors.
