However, since Matthew and John were writing their Gospels directly to the Jews, I would suspect they used Hebrew (or Arabic) instead of Greek.

I believe they wrote in Aramaic, which is what they all spoke in Jesus's circle.

Here is a thread with a pointer to the Aramaic gospels.

I also have the 1851 Murdock translation, in perfect condition, and if there are any verses you have questions about, I might find time to type them in.

I stand corrected! Sorry for the confusion.
