Early church father references to the great commission that do not specifically label Matthew by name cannot be used to verify the wording of Mt. 28:19.
How many of the early church fathers refer specifically to Matthew ??

Your question presupposes a pay grade well above that of the one you are asking.
This is New World Translation-level "expertise" you're trying to investigate. Almost as hard as figuring out what's actually in a Big Mac.
