The '''Gospel of Matthew''' is the first book in the [[New Testament]].  It is one of four [[gospel]]s.  It tells the story of the life of [[Jesus]] as conveyed by [[Matthew]], one of Jesus' [[disciples]].  Matthew is one of the [[synoptic gospels]], meaning part of the grouping of Matthew, [[Gospel of Mark|Mark]], and [[Luke]].  The three share a common structure which shows an interrelationship.  It is generally believed today that Mark came first and Matthew and Luke borrowed his structure, but church tradition held that Matthew was first and some still follow this idea.  There is reference by the church fathers to a gospel of Matthew originally being written in [[Aramaic]].  If this is the case, the original of that work has been lost to time.
