Matthew

The Gospel of Matthew is attributed to Matthew, a Jewish tax collector who became one of Jesus’ twelve apostles. Early Christian writers like Papias (c. 100 AD) and Irenaeus (c. 180 AD) affirmed this authorship, describing Matthew as the one who compiled Jesus’ sayings and deeds, possibly in the Hebrew or Aramaic language before it was later translated into Greek. It was written between 70 -90 AD.
