I always wanna hug Matthew. he's just too adorable. the actor seems like a sweetheart
💯💯💯
Love Matthew
Ikr! He seems cool. I love his hair too, it's perfect.
No, you want the actor, not the disciple.
@@Bolaway it seems like they mean they want to hug the character of Matthew because of how well Paras plays him, and that Paras himself in interviews seems like a sweetheart too. That's how I read the comment anyway...
I was diagnosed when I was 6 with high functioning Aspergers. There is nothing to shame actors for who play characters like us in an accurate and non-degrading way! Thank you Patel!
Paras made Matthew MY FAVORITE character!! I don't want him to be hurt in ANY WAY! Matthew makes me cry bc he's so innocent.
I was surprised to see a portrayal represented like this. Thank You!
He was stabbed to death with a sword while leading the Eucharist in Ethiopia
Uve said the right word "character". Just like every single one of them they are characters just actors. It's so sad that people fall in love with these people when they are nothing like the real people in the Bible. like one of the main directors said 99% is made up! People feel in love with the Jesus in the show played by what's his name. It's not the true Jesus. It's the new age Jesus. So incredibly sad!
@@MLK7788 That's why the guidence from actual priests is needed. Same with other Bible-inspired movies/series.
Its not a character, he actually existed
every time i watch an episode with my sister she goes “wait! where’s matthew?”
Not only is his portrayal of autism amazing, but the response from others around him, to him, is true. I live this everyday.
The Life Of Being Part Of The Autismo Club Is Somethin Isn't It?
It truly is it’s the only time I’ve seen it portrayed realistically ❤
It’s corny ruined the show
yeah but idk why they made him autistic it isn’t mentioned in the bible at all
@@InMyBunker Seriously I suffer from severe OCD and don't need someone like you pointing out that it ruins the show, it's refreshing to see the apostles dealing with everyday things we face in modern times. As if Jesus Christ could have chosen anyone of us to follow Him in 2024. Have some empathy or show no growth, it's your choice!
Matthew is one of my favorite in The Chosen. Paras plays Matthew extremely well!!!! 😘 Utilizing the Autism element was brilliant. 🤗
I am an educator, who teaches children with autism, and seeing him portray Matthew with this tendency warms my heart. 🤗👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️
Matthew story is the most touching story in all the character development. Coming from Someone that feels different, excluded and rejected by man and eventually redeemed and loved by his parents ❤️
So happy for you
Of vourse created accepted & loved 1st by.Our Creator the Lord doesn't make junk He formed us in our Mothers womb He Knows us We must accept Him as our ONLY True Saviour we are redeemed God Speed I love Matthew's character how he is portrayed in Thd Chosen an Absolutely brilliant Show I've read the Bible cover to cover several times but have been further away from. Jesus than I ever care to even acknowledge or believe I miss my Jesus so much I want to return to how I was when truly turned life over to the Lord to my 1st Love to have that zeal love desire for
More of His Word His Control over my life thoughts every part of me & this show has actually helped
Me return to my Lord in repentance & to Honor Him seek Him more know Him more profoundly & I sincerely believe that how Jesus is portrayed & presented by the creator of the show & the actor I CHOOSE to believe my Jesus is almost just like this in His Humanity while on earth at least I believe they are a stellar group of actors it's a fantastic show depiction of Biblical tines then I believe God's hand is all over this I pray for many many souls to come to the TRUTH of Jesus the Gospels one of the same as In the beginning was the Word,, Godspeed
And most of all loved by GOD. Matthew and Paras.
Yes either him or simon had the biggest character arcs. Simon went from street fighting and on the edge of bankruptcy/ jail to becoming a righteous apostle for god.
The Chosen makes me happy like no other show ever has.
Matthew is such an awesome character
It’s has such an impact because it’s REAL and it humanizes Jesus in such a way that I had never previously grasped. Obviously, he is fully human and fully God, but I had never fully grasped what that really meant. I pray that everyone would watch the Chosen and open themselves up to a relationship with Jesus!😊
When Jesus came to Mary’s first Shabbat dinner I screamed in joy.
@@jigglypuff_foryoutube1700that’s exactly how I feel 😊
❤❤I agree with you I have watched 4 times until now from season 1 to season 4 . Really Almighty lord God is working thru this chosen....🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰
💓🙌💓Amen 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Paras for your portrayal of Matthew. My son is on the spectrum and non-verbal, so every scene you're in is a little more emotional. Especially the scene where you reconcile with Matthew's parents. God bless.
That scene just tore me up! Paras as Matthew is just so well done!!
God will heal your son completely and he will talk , glorify the one who created him and redeemed .
I used to be almost nonverbal, not in the strict sense of not being able to speak, but in the sense of a major speech impediment mixed with Asperger's. The speech impediment is gone, but I still don't think like other people do, so I still understand a lack of communication. I can't claim I'll remember to pray for you and your son, but here's one prayer. And as someone whose parents raised me with as much love and wisdom as they did my siblings, I can at least offer some encouragement in that God will help you even when your son just doesn't make sense to you. (And as a teenager, I still don't know what to do if he thinks you don't understand him when you do. Just pray. If he's not a teen yet, when he is, God's the only one getting through to him. We are stupid at these ages.)
@@gaelonhays1712 Your thinking is very close to God and unlike most of the kids who are indoctrinated with crazy school systems and world pleasing systems .
You are blessed by God and you will be blessed even more and healed completely, God has thoughts for you that are unnumbered.
Not "stupid" but "special", "unique", " a mystery". We forget that when God created man He created a massive genetic pool with infinite possibilities. Think of yourself as standing in front of Jesus, as I do, and he reaches out to you with infinite love and understanding. He is with you and everyone who looks to him.
He is my favorite character in the series. The book of Mathew is as well my favorite gospel book. In a red letter Bible, it has the most amount of red lettering compared to the other 3 books, so he really paid attention to the words Jesus spoke and recorded them in much detail. Thank you Dallas for all your hard work.
No he didn't. He added fiction to Jesus' character. Disgraceful. Other than that the show was great though.
He nailed his character with perfection! So impressed. He’s a beautiful soul and his talent is absolutely phenomenal. Our youngest has autism and after working hard with her and all the specialists, SHE earned a full academic scholarship to Uni and graduated this past May. We prayed every day for her life to be easier. Life is tough, imagine waking up every morning struggling with the simplest of tasks. God answered our prayers! Alleluia 🙏💚
Matthew is my favorite in the show. His performance is amazing and wonderful
He is my favorite also
Love Matthew on the show. Your performance is amazing, kind, wonderful. You're a favorite on the show. Well done!
he is real but this is an adaptation they make it clear at the start
He’s my favorite disciple in the show. ❤
My niece has Aspergers and I just love the representation.
Same here friend
It’s called autism, the term Asperger‘s Is no longer used by doctors because the term Asperger’s was coined by an ablest Nazi, who gas chambered autistic people and thought that only autistic people who deserved to live were genius autistic people who are so used to people being ableist to them that they act/behave in a way that makes people think they do not have autism.
My grandson too. I’m still learning about it
As soon as I saw Mathew in the series I identified him with my son who has Asperger. I love hi. To pieces and once in a while I have to steal a hug from him because he has a hard time showing his feelings.
His depiction of Matthew is heartwarming. It has made me read this Gospel in such a different way. I love the way The Chosen has given personalities to the apostles. It helps bring scripture to life which helps me understand better.
i love this comment so much. ❤
I Agree!! All the Actors Of The Chosen Has Brought Jesus and The Apostles To Life In A Way That We Have Never Seen. Their Human Struggles And What The Love Of Jesus Taught Them, And How They Kept Leading People To Christ, Even After Christ Was Crucified And Raised Back From Death, And Ascended To Heaven. They Knew He Was Always With Them! It's Wonderful To See A Series About Jesus and His Disciples, and not just a 2 hour movie. Bless These Actors For Bringing The Characters To Life To Us! You Are Touching So Many People Lives, And Bringing What The World Needs To See!! Thank You All With The Chosen Group For Bringing This Series To TV!! We Love It, And Want More! There Is So Much Trash On TV! This Is A Blessing!!❤
Everyone in the show is so amazing I just think I love Jesus more everyday because of it ❤❤❤
He is so darling. And plays the part of Matthew so beautifully. ❤
I cried when I watched the chapter when Jesus called to Matthew😢😢😢. It was very emotional
My favorite scene!!!! I feel it every time.
😊😊😊
He is adorable. We love Matthew. And his Sincerity to help the world as he is lead to.
My favorite character, he does such an amazing job representing Matthew.
I say thank you to all. It is refreshing to watch the CHOSEN
Paras, your portrayal of Matthew makes him my favorite character among the disciples.
I love Matthew’s character! Outstanding actor! Love him as a person and, more importantly, as Matthew. ❤
Even for the mom of a saved daughter with Down syndrome, it’s real to see disciples with disabilities. Great job to those that included our kids!
I Love Mathew he reminds me of my Joshua who has autism too. God’s special ones ❤️
Matthew is my favorite character! I just love how this seemingly un-likable character comes off as lovable. Can’t wait to see more!
Love what the Chosen and the cast is bringing to the world right when we need it most! May they all continue to be blessed all the days of their lives.
Amen!!!🙏🏼🛐✝️🫶🏼❤️😊🙌🏼🗝️👼🏼🛡️
May I give you my words? Matthew calms my “mama of an adult with profound autism heart”. The Chosen family brings me joy and peace. Grateful is my word for you and The Chosen.
Love Mathew, love him even more hearing him speak with such humility 😊
I totally agree!❤
He did Mathew so well! Ugh, can’t wait for more seasons!
Paras you're a great representation of our people to the world! We Indians around the world are so proud of you!
Matthew is so lovable. He's like the little brother you want hanging around. 💙😊✝️
I think everyone is playing the part that God intended. Every character tells a story and is so captivating. I find myself drawn in to the story and every scene. Such an amazing job! Bless you The Chosen Crew!
Thank you, Paras, for saying yes to this role!! As a Mom of 4 neuro-diverse kiddos, including 1 on the spectrum, it warms my heart every single time I'm blessed with watching you use your gift to portray God's unique children with such dignity! Thank you!!
Yes Thank you
I think everyone can relate to Matthew in one way or another. We have all felt out of place or as thought we have embarrassed or disappointed our family. I am so thankful for this character and how he really brings the truth of God's love to light and makes it more tangible. 💗💗💗
Im just watching the series very attentively as part of my way to go back to love Jesus with all my heart again. I can't thank you enough for this great performance! Everyone's acting makes me really realize how imperfect all of the disciples really were and how Jesus came to their lives just on time to rescue them from their chaotic, miserable lives that were away from God. A real encounter with Jesus is what all of us need, and such a portrait of that in this show is soul refreshing. May God bless you all!
I have an ADHD, little bit autistic, not sure. But the character of Matthew in The Chosen inspires me. It gives me strength as a parent.
Your portrayal of Matthew is striking, Paras. Your pre-Jesus story and how you guys acted it out, it's a small masterpiece in the larger masterpiece. Thanks for all your efforts! I almost cried a little bit when you said you haven't grown numb to the support.
Such God-honoring humility and acting. Your portrayal of Matthew adds so much to the "human-ness" of the disciples. ❤️
Mathew is my favorite character after Jesus. I know that many souls will come to saving grace because of The Chosen !
My favorite seen with Jesus so far was when Jesus holds Nicodemus in his arms and comforts him. I could feel that love❤and hug through the film.
May God continue to bring these actors closer to him in every way. May they have an Holy Encounter with the Lord through their willingness to portray these Great men of God in film. To God be all the glory.
Pastor W.Dove 🕊️
I feel like Matthew is everyone’s favorite disciple because of Paras’ portrayal. It’s amazing ❤❤
He is my favorite character in the series... His brilliant portrayal of Matthew takes on a soulful depth that caught me by surprise, and his role is 100% equally as impactful as Jonathan Roumie's exquisite portrayal of Jesus. Bravo! Outstanding series! We have watched all 3 seasons numerous times, and each time, we're touched by something new. Thanks to ALL who are laboring with such love to bring this beautiful series to the world!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Paras does such a wonderful job as Matthew. All the actors play their person so well. I love this series.
Paras Patel, what a beautiful performer you are. My heart aches understanding what other's must deal with. In the same token, knowing that others understand what folks such as "Mathew" deal with. We want to protect Mathew even though he is quite capable. Knowing/being reminded that the Lord can use us no matter what our gifts/abilities might be. I treasure this gift that you have been blessed with and are sharing with us. How amazing it must be to be a part of such a creative, meaningful and beautiful team.
Thank You
Lets not forget that the mathew in the bible wasnt autistic and this is soley just a way to relate to autistic people and following christ
Thank you for inspiring us to love Jesus more regardless of our dissimilarities, Matthew! 🇵🇭
❤ May God Blessed the team for Representing the disciples ❤
Love him!!! Such a great actor!
He was the first disciple I fell in love with, simply because of his character and his little special moves. Of course, I knew something was going on with him, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. And ever more, he's just so handsome. Lol I love The Choosen, and you guys are doing an awesome job all around the world. We need so much more of this!🙏♥️🙏
Your completely believable!
I started to love Matthew even more... Thankyou Paras you did so well. Love and blessings from India 🇮🇳❤️🥰
Mathew is my favorite disciple on the show. The representation of a man that follows the rules of nature that, watched a man that defied them. Mathew still maintain his composure . To the normies disciples it just took one miracle. Mathew watched while Jesus did TWO miracles. Still, he was confused. His world was crumbling down. He didn’t dare to get close to Jesus…he was not worth it, he was a tax collector…his high understanding of logic, made him accepted that, it was impossible to be accepted by the MESSIAH. Nobody bother to teach Mathews’ character Torah ….He didn’t know the stories the others knew by memory…but, he had a better memory than ALL of them, more scholarly , probably the brightest. The writing is so complete, the crafting of the possibility of Mathew being on the spectrum is so real and very credible. And the beauty of the irony of the Praetor pushing him to follow Peter … that was the small step that change Mathew. GOD uses the good and the (bad) to get us closer to him.
Great reply from this actor. God has done great things with this series, of self funded programming. As a Christ Follower who is merely a wretch, as well as a filthy rag. I enjoy watching the positive hearts, instead of the negative hearts expressing joy from the show. Not the clanging cymbal’s that are determined to tear this all down. Men, dragging down a work of God. Where have I read this done before?😢
My favorite character! 😚
Makes me more intrigued about meeting actual Matthew one day in Heaven .
I loved your portrayal of Matthew. You did a wonderful job. I just wanna kiss him and hug him.❤
Me too
Mee too
If You've had contact, with THOSE with Autism, it's been My experience, that They're not comfortable, being hugged/touched, except by a few SELECT, TRUSTED, LOVED ONES. I don't know, if Those ON THE SPECTRUM, have the same reaction.
I've known a few, AMAZING PEOPLE, WHO have AUTISM...and They could TEACH the WORLD, so much, as long as the WORLD, accepts BOTH, Their STRENGTHS, as well as Their WEAKNESSES.
THANK YOU, for portraying the Part, of MATTHEW, so BEAUTIFULLY!
Yeah but that Matthew will be nothing like this. Matthew wasn’t really on the spectrum. He was just a tax collector that turned to Jesus. He could’ve been but they wouldn’t hire him as a tax collector if he was.
I’ve watched the entire season five times and you and your coworkers are absolutely phenomenal. It’s changed my life for the better.
Love you Matthew!!.. Love Chosen!!.. Praise God!!.. God Bless You All!!...✝️❤🙏
His performance is incredible!!
Matthew ! love your acting.
Thank You so very much for playing Matthews part so brilliantly! I had a family daycare for 48 years and had trainings to care for children with different disabilities. It helped me so very much. I wish there were more actors playing parts like this to help others see the need for kindness to others!
Paras, we thank you immensely for being such a genuine person on and off the screen! Your persona has touched us so very much and no matter when my fiancé and I see and hear you, our hearts just melt! You are not only an amazing actor but a sweet and beautiful man!
Good bless you!
You are an amazing actor! Your performances are always so touching!
Omg! Your so handsome and I love your part as Matthew!❤️
Love this guys acting ability. He won my heart from the first day. He is my favorite disciple.
He is amazing in this, such a great actor and Matthew so loved Jesus, our Lord of Lords! Thank you to ALL The Chosen cast and crew, beautifully well acted life of Jesus, etc!
I can tell he's so kind in real life🥺
I can't say enough about this character. Watching him as he grows, and comes into more of the blessing of being a child of God is so inspiring. It makes one stop and realize, patience is necessary, because everyone has a struggle. Like sin, no single struggle is worse than another's struggle. They are all real, all urgent, and all can be overcome. Love is part of the medicine that help people who struggle. Love, accept, admit, grow. Thank you for Matthew. What a deep spiritual lesson Matthew teaches us. I believe you were destined to play this role. I have an autistic grandson, and I can see him in this character. So encouraging Being a Patel, and believing in Jesus makes me sooo happy. Praise God
The show is amazing, and the actors are phenomenal. I think every episode makes me cry. All praise and glory to the Lord.
Matthew the character is precious. Absolutely precious. I always want to hug him. ❤Thank you for doing such an amazing job!
Glory to Almighty God. Such an amazing show which brings us more and more close to God. 🙏💝💖❣️💞❤
From India🇮🇳
He's doing such an excellent job portraying Matthew's struggles. I'd say that his is my favorite performance
I don't have any spectrum labels but my heart breaks every time with Matthew because I know what the outside feels like in other ways. His heart, the confusions, pain, even the happy moments just make me cry every time. Love how they do Matthew & the fact that he's able to reach so many in this role. (Two of my favorite little buddies in life are on extreme ends of the spectrum too.)
My dude is doing a great job 👍
Love from India🇮🇳
I have a question that may or may not seem strange, I'm not sure. I work for a family that's from India & they're definitely Hindu, but not as devout as others I've worked for so it took me a while to even figure it out. I worked for/with a lot of Hindu families, usually during religious celebrations & such years ago, but I still don't know a lot about their religion & I have absolutely no clue how to approach them with Christ.
Living in India & I'm assuming being a Christian yourself (?), do you have any tips? I live in the US & I struggle with unbelieving Americans, but it's a little easier since I know the culture as my own. I'm just not sure how with other cultures, specifically those that do have a religion they follow that's so different from mine.
@@angiew2324I'?m a hindu but in search of Jesus please pray for me
I will happily pray for you. :) Do you have a Bible in your language? Sending you much sincere love in Christ. I know Jesus is smiling at you seeking Him. I’m praying for you now. 😊❤️
@@angiew2324 I'm from Kerala, India...here all religions co exists... Christianity came here by st. Thomas in 52 AD. People here have respect towards all religions, so as with Christianity..❤
@@angiew2324 nothing much actually. Just share the gospel of our lord with them and about the salvation that the lord grants and the people who have ears will listen.
Yeah I love Matthew character, his like very innocent, genuine and authentic of every words that came out on his mouth. Love from Philippines❤. God bless!
Saint Matthew must be very proud of you Mr. Paras Patel! ❤
Matthew is one of my favorite characters. He has an innocence to him.
He portrays an amazing Matthew!
Thank you for representing what I have went through. My name is Matthew, so your performance hit me in big ways! ❤️
That is beautiful. :) I’m so glad it helped you feel seen, loved, valued, and understood by God. He loves you! :) Praying for you ❤️
From my heart, I Thank God for having chosen you to play Matthew!!!
Such a classy group of actors that are grateful for this opportunity to impact our challenged world in such a meaningful and positive manner. Truly such a gift!
Matthew is the most adorable rather than tantrums of Peter.. We all Love you here in Philippines.❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Love the Matthew character... beautiful job!!!
God Jesus and The Holy Spirit love all❤
Matthew's acting capacity is too good.
Paras's portrait of Matthew has not only made me fall in love with who the real Matthew really may if been.. but Paras has also made his character by far my favourite on the chosen.. Paras is an excellent actor, and I hope we see much more of him in the future.. God bless you, brother 👏🏾✝️🙏🏽
Four of our family just saw the season 3 episodes 1 & 2 in the theater this evening. Tremendous! The scene of Matthew going to reconcile with his parents was one of the most moving for all of us. You portrayed a great biblical example of humility and obedience to Christ, even in deeply painful close relationships. What a joy to see the portrayal of the parents also being receptive to Christ’s message, and also responding in humility and obedience! Wow! Truly revolutionary!! Glory to God!
Thanks for all your work!
We are praying for you all!
He is the most onest and authentic person of all disciples ❤ I love that Mathew is different
You are such a kind, thoughtful person who shows Jesus love. We love you "Matthew". 😍
So handsome. So talented.
He's my favorite. Well Jesus is my favorite, but Matthew is just AWESOME. Great job Sir.
The Matthew character touches my heart.
Your character Matthew has really touched my heart ! He became my favorite.I have 2 grandson 1 with autism and 1 with ADHD
I loved seeing the apostles dealing with issues that we face today, makes it more relatable. Like any of us could have been chosen to follow Jesus had He been here in 2024!❤ I really am disturbed that they made Judas Iscariot so likable, perhaps to make the realization that anyone in our circle could betray us !
Love you Matthew❤❤❤. God bless you
One of the best actors I’ve seen in my life.
Love you Paras! Your portrayal of Matthew as being on the spectrum is so touching. I have ADHD and when you drew the circle with the hatchet and put the circle outside it…I definitely can identify with that. Even those of us with ADHD have trouble feeling “normal” should I say. Sorry about using normal but I don’t know what else to say. Love you Paras. ❤
So true
💖😇
Jesus heals
I genuinely thought Matthew have ASD which is rather different from ADHD depending on the spectrum level
@@connieb.6061 autism isn’t something that needs to be healed, it’s not any type of illness, it is a neurotype and often a disability.
Paras is absolutely amazing!!
Love how you all portray Matthew. I’ve always identified with him. Incredible actor.❤
GOD USES PARAS TO TOUCH SO MANY HEARTS!! HE DOES A TERRIFIC JOB!!
BLESSINGS 💜 🙌 💜 🙌 💜 🙌 💜 🙌 💜 😮🙌 💜 🙌 💜 🙌 💜 🙌
I think he does an outstanding job! This has become the most favorite show I have ever seen in my 80 years! It makes me feel close to Jesus, my Lord and God, Almighty, and the Spirit! And since I’m at “the jumping off point “ it has become very important to me! The whole crew and actors in this are exemplary! Jesus is played to perfection and I’m sure Jesus is pleased with it and Mr. Roumie! The creator and Director of this series Mr. Jenkins should be proud and humble that the Trinity chose him to bring this world wide revelation to the world that is so desperately needed! God bless all of you on this project and please continue it to the end series. We are all waiting and that means the whole world is. Rejoice and be glad you’re doing something glorious and I’m sure God, Jesus, and the Spirit will bless you all!
PS It seems to me like Matthew is suffering more from OCD than autism But, he plays both incredibly perfect!
Your character is multifaceted and just the most interesting to watch. You portray the character beautifully 🥰
Este personaje es muy especial para mi también. Gracias por incluirlo en la serie. Es mi personaje favorito ! Mucho éxito en futuros proyectos!
The Matthew character just warms my heart
You have opened so many peoples eyes by portraying Matthew. GOD BLESS YOU
We love you and appreciate you representing us!❤
I just love him and his acting! In a way I feel that, as a viewer, I’m seeing the story through his eyes.. maybe because he (Matthew) reacts to things with such sensitivity
Mathew is my favorite Chosen character! I cry and laugh with him! You’re portrayal is inspiring!
