Book Description
The Sermon on the Mount never ceases to challenge readers in every generation. New methods and new insights into new surroundings have to be applied to the most influential speech ever given. In this study, Ernst Baasland takes a fresh look at the history of research done on it, both on its broad influence and on the variety of interpretations. The historical questions are seen from new perspectives. Is orality the key to a better understanding? To what extent can we reconstruct a pre-text and the question of authenticity be answered? These questions are seen through historiographical lenses. The author argues in favour of a universal addressee and maintains that the speech contains radical philosophical thinking. The first audience consisted of Jews, and the religiously based understanding of life is conceived within Judaism. However, its ethics of wisdom is developed in a Hellenistic setting and provides a radical philosophy of life.

Book Description
The Texts @ Contexts series gathers scholarly voices from diverse contexts and social locations to bring new or unfamiliar facets of biblical texts to light. Matthew sheds new light from new perspectives on themes in the Gospel including community; land, labor, and Empire; children, parents, and families; health and disabilities; and border-crossings. The authors challenge us to consider how we deal with cultural distances between ourselves and these ancient writings—and between one another in the contemporary world.

Book Description
John Wesley wrote this series of sermon commentaries to help people understand Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. It took him over 15 years to complete this important work. Over time changes within the English language caused some of these writings to be very difficult for the average person to read and were really only suited for the most dedicated theologian. through careful and sensitive editing Claire Weakley, Jr. has brought these sermons back to life for every reader in the modern world to be able to enjoy and understand Wesley's insights and teachings regarding the Sermon on the Mount.
