Overview & Insights

"Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God." (Luke 6:20)

Jesus comes down to a level place and heals a great crowd before turning to teach his disciples. He pronounces blessing on the poor, hungry, weeping, and hated, then pairs each blessing with a matching woe for the rich, full, laughing, and well spoken of.
