Matthew 5:17, from the Gospel of Matthew, is the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount, considered the central teaching of Jesus. A faith leader in Washington, D.C., shared perspective.
Not much is known about St. Matthew, who is credited with writing the Gospel of Matthew, says Christian website Overviewbible.com. "The Good News is that Jesus Christ rose from the dead and sent the Holy Spirit into our hearts." Christine Rousselle is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
When Matthew was called by Jesus to be one of his disciples, he was employed as a publican, or tax collector. This was "one of the most reviled professions in ancient Judaism," said the site.
