Acts and Martyrdom of Matthew

Told of the apostle and evangelist Matthew; author unknown, date uncertain. A later legend of Matthew's ministry in the country of the man-eaters: he is given a staff by Jesus in the form of a child, confronts a king and his demon-possessed household, and survives fire and imprisonment, until the king and city turn to Christ. Not part of any church's canon.
