“The other Evangelists, out of respect for Matthew,
did not call him by his common name, so they said Levi. But Matthew called himself Matthew and a publican, that he might show his readers that no one ought to despair of salvation … since he himself suddenly changed from a publican to an apostle.” - St. Jerome on St. Matthew
For Reflection:
What “sudden change” may God be asking me to make today?
St. Matthew, pray for me.
