Mathew to haue written in Hebrew, yet some learned do think that he wrote in greeke, which opinion I preferre as more probable: but how soeuer that be, it skilleth not much; for the Greeke which now is only exstant, is admitted of all as authenticall. Yea, as Theophila∣ctus recordeth, they that holde saint Mathew to haue written in hebrew, do not denie but Saint Iohn translated it into greeke, and consequently, since S. Iohn was no lesse inspired with the holy ghost, then Saint Mathew, it must needes follow, that the greeke copie is as authenticall as the Hebrew, if any such could be found.
