OF THE [COMMENTARIES] ON THE [GOSPEL] ACCORDING TO MATTHEW
VOLUME 1 Matth. Inscr. Euseb. h. e. VI,25, 4-6 As I have learned by tradition concerning the four gospels, which are the only undisputed ones in the church of God under heaven, that first was written the one according to Matthew, who was once a tax collector but later an apostle of Jesus Christ, who published it for the believers from Judaism, composed in Hebrew letters; and second, the one according to Mark, who wrote it as Peter instructed him, whom he also acknowledged as a son in the catholic epistle, saying through these words: "She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you, and so does Mark my son"; and third, the one according to Luke, the gospel praised by Paul, who wrote it for those from the Gentiles; last of all, the one according to John.

ΤΩΝ ΕΙΣ ΤΟ ΚΑΤΑ ΜΑΤΘΑΙΟΝ
ΤΟΜΟΣ Αʹ Matth. Inscr. Euseb. h. e. VI,25, 4-6 Ὡς ἐν παραδόσει μαθὼν περὶ τῶν τεσσάρων εὐαγγελίων, ἃ καὶ μόνα ἀναντίρρητά ἐστιν ἐν τῇ ὑπὸ τὸν οὐρανὸν ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦ θεοῦ, ὅτι πρῶτον μὲν γέγραπται τὸ κατὰ τόν ποτε τελώνην ὕστερον δὲ ἀπόστολον Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ Ματθαῖον, ἐκδεδωκότα αὐτὸ τοῖς ἀπὸ Ἰουδαϊσμοῦ πιστεύσασιν, γράμμασιν Ἑβραϊκοῖς συντεταγμένον· δεύτερον δὲ τὸ κατὰ Μᾶρκον, ὡς Πέτρος ὑφηγήσατο αὐτῷ, ποιήσαντα, ὃν καὶ υἱὸν ἐν τῇ καθολικῇ ἐπιστολῇ διὰ τούτων ὡμολόγησεν φάσκων· «ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς ἡ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι συνεκλεκτὴ καὶ Μᾶρκος ὁ υἱός μου»· καὶ τρίτον τὸ κατὰ Λουκᾶν, τὸ ὑπὸ Παύλου ἐπαινούμενον εὐαγγέλιον τοῖς ἀπὸ τῶν ἐθνῶν πεποιηκότα· ἐπὶ πᾶσιν τὸ κατὰ Ἰωάννην.
