Matthew is probably pulling, this is a typical eastern tool that a jewish author to a jewish audience going to be very familiar with. He's going to take lots of jesu's teachings and he's going to weave them together in his gospel to make it sound like one teaching that represents what jesus's whole teaching ministry was about.
