About this ebook
The Acts of St. Matthew is a text composed sometime between the 4th and century century in either Greek or Classical Syriac. It recounts the apocryphal sojourns of the apostle Matthew in an unspecified country. During his travels he encounters various royal official and attempts to teach them about the Gospel of Christ, which ultimately results in his death and martyrdom. Speculation regarding the whereabouts of these events were common, but the text does not grant any clear intended geographic location. Moreover, the text itself appears to be incomplete, as sections appear to have been lost in antiquity.
