Also, 250 years is a long time for stories to morph...so Eusebius might not have retold all the details correct there. If we were to go with the various stories...then we would have to say that Matthew's original Gospel is no longer around, and that the one we have today is not the same thing. So, did God have it written twice by inspiration, or just once? I say...just once, and it is the very same one that is found in The Church of the East today, which has always had only one version of Mathew's Gospel, and which is Inspired by God.
By the way...in the 1st and 2nd century...the Christians of The Church of the East were called "Nazarene's" and for good reason.
