Matthew 5

Book • 1982
Matthew 5 is the opening chapter of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, one of the most famous and influential sections of the New Testament.

It begins with the Beatitudes, a series of blessings pronounced on the poor in spirit, those who mourn, the meek, and others, outlining the values of the Kingdom of Heaven.

The chapter also includes Jesus' teachings on being the 'salt of the earth' and the 'light of the world,' as well as his interpretation of the Law, emphasizing inner righteousness over mere external observance.

The teachings in this chapter are central to Christian ethics and have had a profound impact on Western thought and culture.
