Matt 5 - Beatitudes



Notes Scriptures

In Christianity, the Beatitudes are the set of teachings by Jesus that begin "Blessed are...", and appear in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. The term beatitude comes from the Latin noun beātitūdō which means "happiness".

 These eight of Matthew follow a simple pattern: Jesus names a group of people normally thought to be unfortunate and pronounces them blessed. Matthew[edit] The eight Beatitudes in Matthew 5:3–12 during the Sermon on the Mount each begins with: Blessed are.
