  What did you learn about the Sermon on the Mount and/or Matthew’s gospel that you didn’t know prior to taking this lesson?

  For me, it was such a great visual of Jesus standing there with all these people-teaching them all one by one, they soaked it all in out of amazement and wonder. It left them wanted to not just know of him, but to truly KNOW him.

  I didn’t know that Jesus clarion call to countercultural values might have been taken by some in his day to be heading toward a call to a secluded community life, like the Essenes. But Jesus’ instruction to his followers to be light and salt counter that idea–his countercultural values are to be lived out in the midst of the world.

  I never understood the breakdown of the Sermon of the Mount in entirety.

  I had never considered the organization of Matthew before. I find it interesting how Jesus used many different ways to teach and show his authority; a section on missions, parables, humility and forgiveness, the end times and woes to scribes and Pharisees.
