the Gospel According to Matthew
Matthew is the gospel written by a Jew to Jews about a Jew. Matthew is the writer, his countrymen are the readers, and Jesus Christ is the subject. Matthew's design is to present Jesus as the King of the Jews, the long-awaited Messiah. Through a carefully selected series of Old testament quotations, Matthew documents Jesus Christ's claim to be the Messiah. His genealogy, baptism, messages and miracles all point to the same inescapable conclusion: Resurrection, and the message again echoes forth: The King of the Jews lives.
At an early date this gospel was given the title Kata Matthaion, "According to Matthew." As this title suggests, other gospel accounts were known at that time (the word "Gospel" was added later). Matthew ("Gift of the Lord") was also surnamed Levi (Mark 2:14; Luke 5:27).
