Saint Augustine once described the Sermon on the Mount as "the
perfect measure of the Christian life." Taking his cue from
Augustine, Frank Matera provides an exposition of the sermon for
contemporary readers who wish to use the sermon as the standard by
which they live their lives every day.
Matera shows how the Sermon on the Mount summons believers to
single-minded devotion and wholehearted service to God. He unfolds
the historical and theological background to the sermon. He
explores the meaning of the individual Beatitudes, which articulate
Jesus' call for a more abundant righteousness, piety without
hypocrisy, and the need to become "doers" of the Word.
This lively and engaging commentary is an ideal resource for
adult education and Bible study groups. It is also ideal for al who
want to live their discipleship more fully.
