What clues do we find about the author of the First Gospel from the text? Like the other three Gospels, the First Gospel is anonymous. First, we find that the author of the First Gospel is thoroughly entrenched in Judaism. The author often quotes the Hebrew Bible otherwise known as the Old Testament.
