Authentic Matthew is a name given, according to Jerome's Commentary on Matthew ch. 2 , to a gospel identical to the Gospel of the Hebrews: "In the Gospel which the Nazarenes and the Ebionites use which we have recently translated from Hebrew to Greek, and which most people call the Authentic Gospel of Matthew...". It was called Authentic Matthew because a tradition, reported by Jerome, asserted that it was actually written by the apostle Matthew. Authentic Matthew is a lost gospel that has been at least partially preserved in the works of some of the Church Fathers.
