I already shown you that there is more than one person citing Matthew in such manner, plus there is a whole lot more evidence that supports this text. So no I am not relying upon ONE Guy. Plenty of evidence in the book "The original Matthew 28:19 Restored" Annarikhus: “Go ye forth into all the world, and teach ye all the nations in My Name in every place.” Aphraates: “Go forth [and] make disciples of all the peoples, and they shall believe in me” Ephrem: “Go out into the whole world and proclaim my gospel to the whole of creation and baptize all the Gentiles.” Thaddaeus: “And He sent us in His name to proclaim repentance and remission of sins to all the nations.” |

Yes there is plenty of evidence that the original Matthew was written in Hebrew. |
Re: Gospels of Matthew without Trinitarian ending
There is no manuscript evidence of a Hebrew Matthew. There are zero early Hebrew manuscripts of Matthew. None.
Therefore, it is pure conjecture to say a sentence was mistranslated when there are no manuscripts to compare the translation to. |

Re: Gospels of Matthew without Trinitarian ending
We do not assemble texts of NT literature based exclusively on the testimony of early church fathers. Translators translate NT manuscripts. There are no Hebrew manuscripts of Matthew that we now possess.
We do have manuscripts of NT literature in other languages. We do have early church father quotes. But they are not the same as NT manuscripts. In an interest to cover new ideas, gather other quotes from the Hebrew Matthew and compare them to the Greek text of Matthew. Surely there are other quotes from the Hebrew Matthew in the early church fathers. Find them. List them here. |

Furthermore, the majority of the rest of the OT quotations in Matthew are taken from the GREEK OT, showing that Matthew was using a GREEK Bible, familiar with Greek, and therefore writing in Greek. There is NO evidence that Matthew was originally written in Hebrew. The supposed allusions to a Hebrew original are irrelevant for two reasons: 1. The actual ancient claim is that Matthew wrote an account in Hebrew, NOT that the then-current Gospel according to Matthew was originally in Hebrew. In other words, a SEPARATE WORK. 2. No Hebrew original has ever been found. So EVEN IF Matthew's Gospel was originally in Hebrew, GOD HIMSELF CHOSE NOT TO PRESERVE IT, and INSTEAD God CHOSE TO PRESERVE HIS GREEK GOSPEL. Therefore, we MUST use the Greek. YOU are promoting that we abandon the Gospel that GOD PRESERVED and instead go with something y'all are MAKING UP AS YOU GO ALONG THAT HAS NO BASIS IN ANYTHING EXCEPT YOUR PERSONAL PREFERENCE. We don't conform the Bible to our beliefs, we conform our beliefs to the Bible. |
Re: Gospels of Matthew without Trinitarian ending
OT quotes in the NT are extremely interesting and equally complex. Some quotes are from the Hebrew, some are from the Greek. Some are neither.
If I recall, authors of NT literature are inconsistent in how they quote the OT in the NT. I would need to review the theological literature before making any observations here. It has been a long time since I researched OT quotes in the NT. |
Re: Gospels of Matthew without Trinitarian ending
85% LXX, 10-12% MT, the rest unknown/paraphrased/unique.
