Matthew 5

As the new and better Moses, Jesus ascends a mountain and delivers the Word of God, only this time instead of being delivered on stone tablets, God’s Word is delivered directly from the mouth of God the Son. This section of Scripture is called “The Sermon on the Mount” and contains highly concentrated dose of Jesus’ teachings. Beginning with a section we call “The Beatitudes” Jesus pronounces unexpected blessing upon unlikely people. Later, he declares that he has not come to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it, and this he does perfectly, surpassing the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees. With this in mind, Christ enhances portions of the Ten Commandments to include the sins of the heart. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/[email protected]
