But because the Prophet had said, The meek shall inherit the earth, (Ps. 36:11.) He used these well-known words in conveying His meaning. [11] Glossa Ordinaria: The meek, who have possessed themselves, shall possess hereafter the inheritance of the Father; to possess is more than to have, for we have many things which we lose immediately. [11]
Matthew 5:12 is the twelfth verse of the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament.It is the tenth verse of the Sermon on the Mount.This verse is generally seen as part of an expansion of the eight Beatitude, others see it as the second half of the ninth Beatitude, a small group feel it is the tenth Beatitude and thus brings to a close a second Decalogue.
The word translated as fool is the Greek moros, which has a similar meaning to the Aramaic reka. However moros also was used to mean godless, and thus could be much more severe a term than reka. The reading of godless can explain why the punishment is more severe. [11] Jesus uses the term himself in Matthew 23:17 when he is deriding the Pharisees.
Suffer fools gladly is a phrase in contemporary use, first coined by Saint Paul in his second letter to the Church at Corinth ().The full verse of the original source of the idiom, 2 Corinthians 11:19 (), reads "For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise."
A very similar pronouncement on divorce is made by Jesus at Luke 16:18 and Mark 10:11, however neither of those two make an exception for πορνεία /porneia. Paul of Tarsus quotes Jesus ("not I but the Lord") in 1 Corinthians 7:10–11 with no exceptions granted although he ("I and not the Lord") goes on to give exceptions.
In the Gospel of Matthew the parable is as follows: . The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field; which indeed is smaller than all seeds but when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.
The verse is similar to Mark 9:47, and a version much closer to that in Mark appears at Matthew 18:9. [1] This verse, along with the next one, is the most extreme part of the Sermon on the Mount. R. T. France notes that the severity of this verse is unparalleled in the contemporary literature. [2] It advocates an action that is extremely drastic.
This verse opens with the standard "but I say unto you" phrase that heralds a reinterpretation of Mosaic Law. While the Old Testament quote in the previous verse was a reference to retributive punishment, here Jesus uses the word resist, which has been seen as far broader. This verse is often presented as advocating radical pacifism.
