马太福音-Matthew 10章3~4节
| 10:3 | 腓力和巴多罗买；多马和税吏马太；亚勒腓的儿子雅各，和达太； |
| Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; | |
| 10:4 | 热烈派的西门，和出卖耶稣的加略人犹大。 |
| Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him. |
Enlightenment:
Mark and Luke list Matthew before Thomas (Mark 3:18; Luke 6:15), but Matthew, the writer of this book, lists himself after Thomas. This shows his humility. In verse 3 Matthew specifically designates himself as the tax collector, remembering his salvation, perhaps with gratitude. Even a despised and sinful tax collector could become an apostle of the King of the heavenly kingdom. What a salvation!
亮光
马可福音和路加福音将马太列在多马之前。（可三18，路六15。）但本书的作者马太，将自己列在多马之后，显出他的谦卑。在三节，马太特别标明自已是税吏，也许是怀着感激，记念他的得救。连一个受人藐视、有罪的税吏，也能成为属天国度君王的使徒。这是何等的救恩！
