Matthew 5:5 is the fifth verse of the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. It is the third verse of the Sermon on the Mount , and also the third of what are known as the Beatitudes .
[5] Luke 6:20 simply has "blessed are the poor"; that Matthew adds "in spirit" is seen to be of great consequence. The phrase does not appear in the Old Testament, but Psalm 34:18 comes close.

[5] Abarbinel paraphrases Isaiah 18:4 "my dwelling place, which is the body, for that is "the tabernacle of the soul"." [6] "House not made with hands, eternal in the heavens": can be interpreted as "glorified body" after resurrection, or "the holy house" in the world to come, [7] which might be intended in Isaiah 56:5 or Proverbs 24:3.

Since the English Reformation in the 16th century, there have been more than fifty English-language translations and paraphrases of Veni Creator Spiritus. [5] The version attributed to Archbishop Cranmer, his sole venture into English verse, first appeared in the Prayer Book Ordinal of 1550. It was the only metrical hymn included in the ...
As the chapter opens, Jesus goes again to Jerusalem for "a feast".Because the gospel records Jesus' visit to Jerusalem for the Passover in John 2:13, and another Passover was mentioned in John 6:4, some commentators have speculated whether John 5:1 also referred to a Passover (implying that the events of John 2–6 took place over at least three years), or whether a different feast is indicated.
