It is also noted that NONE of his disciples were ever capable of writing. No scribes were ever mentioned which many illiterate (most were so)

Matthew was a Tax Collector, so it is logical to assume he was literate.

Too many ‘modernists’ make the assumption that because BOOKS were in short supply back in the day, that READING was also.

It was mentioned that Jesus wrote in the sand.

WHY? if none could read?
