You’ve probably memorized parts of it. But there’s a good chance you’ve been reading it through a lens that strips out everything that made it so powerful to the people who actually heard it. In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on three of the biggest misconceptions surrounding Matthew 5 through 7, starting with the assumption that Yeshua was doing something brand new on that hillside. He wasn’t. He was a first-century Jewish rabbi doing exactly what first-century Jewish rabbis did, except with an authority nobody else could touch. We’re also going to talk about what Yeshua actually meant when he said he didn’t come to abolish the Torah, because that phrase means something very specific in its original context and most of us have been reading it wrong. And then we’re going to sit with the Beatitudes for a minute, because they are not the inspirational sentiments we’ve turned them into. They are prophetic declarations soaked in the Psalms and the prophets, and once you hear them that way, you won’t be able to unhear it. This is the Sermon on the Mount the way it was always meant to be read. Come study with me. This is a public episode.
