The Church of the Beatitudes (Hebrew: כנסיית הר האושר) is a Roman Catholic church located by the Sea of Galilee near Tabgha and Capernaum in Israel Sermon on the Mount The eight Beatitudes (Matthew) Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven. (5:3) Blessed are those who mourn: for they will be comforted. (5:4) Blessed are the meek: for they will inherit the earth. (5:5) Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they will be filled. (5:6) Blessed are the merciful: for they will be shown mercy. (5:7) Blessed are the pure in heart: for they will see God. (5:8) Blessed are the peacemakers: for they will be called children of God. (5:9) Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (5:10) In verses 5:11-12, the eight Beatitudes are followed by what is often viewed as a commentary—a further clarification of the eighth one with specific application being made to the disciples. Instead of using the third-person plural "they", Jesus changes to second-person "you":[1] Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. R. T. France considers verses 11 and 12 to be based on Isaiah 51:7.[7] The Beatitudes unique to Matthew are the meek, the merciful, the pure of heart, and the peacemakers.[6] The other four have similar entries in Luke, but are followed almost immediately by "four woes". Beatitudes (Luke) Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Luke 6:23 (Wikipedia)
