Clarke's Commentary on the BibleNamed Matthew - Generally supposed to be the same who wrote this history of our blessed Lord. Mathai signifies a gift in Syriac; probably so named by his parents as implying a gift from God. The receipt of custom - The custom-house, τελωνιον - the place where the taxes levied by the Romans of the Jews, were collected. Follow me - That is, become my disciple. And he arose, and followed him - How blessed it is to be obedient to the first call of Christ - how much happiness and glory are lost by delays, though conversion at last may have taken place!
