About thirty years after the Lord Jesus had gone back to heaven, a Jewish disciple named Matthew was inspired by the Spirit of God to write a book. The finished product is what we know today as "The Gospel according to Matthew". Nowhere in the four Gospels do we find a single word that Matthew spoke. Yet in his Gospel, he gives us the words and works of Jesus Christ, "the son of David, the son of Abraham". Matthew, originally a tax collector, did not write to tell us about himself, but His own experience with the Lord Jesus is recorded for us in a few verses in chapter 9; and it is a beautiful example of the grace of God.
