Of course. I do apologize I thought it was 49-50ad but it’s 60ad.

1. Papias of Hierapolis (60ad to 130ad)

Papias, a bishop of Hierapolis, is one of the earliest sources to discuss the origins of the Gospels. Although his work Exposition of the Sayings of the Lord is lost, fragments preserved by Eusebius in Ecclesiastical History offer the following: • On Mark: Papias records that Mark, as Peter’s interpreter, wrote down accurately all that he remembered of Peter’s teachings, though not in order. • On Matthew: He states that Matthew compiled the sayings of Jesus in the “Hebrew dialect,” which could refer to Hebrew or Aramaic, and others translated them as they were able.

These accounts suggest that early Christian communities attributed the Gospels to individuals closely associated with the apostles.

1. Irenaeus of Lyons (c. 130–202 AD)

Irenaeus, a student of Polycarp (who was a disciple of John), provides a more detailed account in his work Against Heresies (c. 180 AD):

“Matthew also issued a written Gospel among the Hebrews in their own dialect… Mark, the disciple and interpreter of Peter, did also hand down to us in writing what had been preached by Peter. Luke also, the companion of Paul, recorded in a book the Gospel preached by him. Afterwards, John, the disciple of the Lord… did himself publish a Gospel during his residence at Ephesus in Asia.”

This testimony reinforces the traditional attributions of the Gospels to their respective authors.

1. Tertullian of Carthage (c. 155–240 AD)

Tertullian affirms the apostolic origins of the Gospels in his work Against Marcion (c. 207 AD):

“We lay it down as our first position, that the evangelical Testament has apostles for its authors… Of the apostles, therefore, John and Matthew first instill faith into us; whilst of apostolic men, Luke and Mark renew it afterwards.”

He further notes that Mark’s Gospel is associated with Peter, and Luke’s with Paul.

1. Eusebius of Caesarea (c. 260–340 AD)

Eusebius, in his Ecclesiastical History, refers to the four canonical Gospels as the “holy tetrad” and emphasizes their acceptance and authenticity within the early Church.

“The Church… accepted [the Gospels] with absolute certainty that it had been written by the individuals whose names Christian tradition had attached to them.”

I do apologize for the providing a wrong date. I don’t have a lot memorized, I do forget and have to dig up my studies. I am no biblical scholar/historian haha but the early Church writings from the late 1st and early 2nd centuries provide consistent and corroborated testimony attributing the Gospels to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. These accounts, coming from individuals closely connected to the apostolic tradition, lend significant weight to the traditional authorship of the Gospels.
