This short Bible Study is written to learn how Jesus calls people to become His disciples. A disciple is a student and learner. Matthew was one of twelve called by Rabbi Jesus of Nazareth to follow Him as a disciple. Men, women and children are called to follow Him today also. It is not meant to be a commentary, but the chapters of study for this New Testament Gospel book may help the reader to have a greater understanding of Jesus Christ and what it means to be His disciple in the Twenty-First Century.
