The text is a text named after the half-human and half- avatar of.
The Puranas themselves describes the five characteristics (pancha lakshana) that a text must satisfy before being classified as a mahapurana. That is, any such text must describe five different subjects.
These are the original creation of the universe (sarga), the periodical process of destruction and re-creation (pratisaryga), the various eras (manvantara), the histories of the solar dynasty (surya vamsha), and lunar dynasty (chandra vamsha) and royal genealogies (vamshanucharita). As you will see, the Matysa Purana does describe these five different subjects. Traditionally, the Ramayana is believed to have been composed by the sage Valmiki and the Mahabharata is believed to have been composed by the sage Vedavyasa. Vedavyasa was the son of Satyavati and the sage Parashara. His real name was Krishna Dvaipayana. The word krishna means dark and he came to acquire the name because he was dark in complexion. The word dvipa means island and the sage acquired the name of Dvaipayana as he was born on an island.
The Mahabharata has one lakh shlokas or couplets. It is believed that, after composing the Mahabharata.
Vedavyasa composed the eighteen mahapuranas. These texts have four lakh shlokas between them, although they are not equal in length. The Matsya Purana is a medium-length Purana, is comprises of fifteen thousand couplets. The longest Purana, the Skanda Purana, has eighty-one thousand.
And the shortest Purana, the Markandeya Purana, has only nine thousand. The fourteen thousand shlokas of the Maysya Purana are divided into two hundred and ninety-one chapters (adhyaya). The eighteen mahapuranas are sometimes divided into three groups, with six Puranas in each group. There are many gods in the Hindu pantheon. But the primary gods are Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Brahma is regarded as the creator, Vishnu as the preserver, and Shiva as the destroyer.
Since all three are important gods, any sacred text will glorify each of them. But the relative emphasis often varies from text to text.
For example, a text which spends many chapters on the act of creation tends to glorify Brahma relatively more and is known as a rajasika Purana. A text which describes the incarnations (avatara) of Vishnu in great detail tends to glorify Vishnu more and is known as a sattvika Purana. A text reoccupies with rituals and norms tends to attach more importance to Shiva and is known as a tamasika Purana. The Matsya Purana is regarded as a tamasika Purana.
