We have what we have of all scripture: reliable copies of an original letter, hand copied by a believer.

As Papias stated, Matthew wrote in his native tongue, and others copied it and translated it as best they could.

That is how all of the NT has been carried forward.

Please post the gospel of Matthew in Hebrew and demonstrate using evidence, that it has an unbroken chain of authority back to Matthew.

So you’re going to translate backwards back into Hebrew and then claim that your guess of what the Hebrew said was actually inspired by the Holy Spirit?

Bwahahahaha,,,,....
