Jesus Creed 2017 Commentary of the Year Outreach 2018 Resource of
the Year (Theology) A Top Five Reference Book for Parish Ministry
in 2017, Academy of Parish Clergy The Sermon on the Mount, one of
the most influential portions of the Bible, is the most studied and
commented upon portion of the Christian Scriptures. Every Christian
generation turns to it for insight and guidance. In this volume, a
recognized expert on the Gospels shows that the Sermon on the Mount
offers a clear window into understanding God's work in Christ.
Jonathan Pennington provides a historical, theological, and
literary commentary on the Sermon and explains how this text offers
insight into God's plan for human flourishing. As Pennington
explores the literary dimensions and theological themes of this
famous passage, he situates the Sermon in dialogue with the Jewish
and Greek virtue traditions and the philosophical-theological
question of human flourishing. He also relates the Sermon's
theological themes to contemporary issues such as ethics,
philosophy, and economics.
