STUDY FIVE: THE BEATITUDES - A CALL TO A RADICAL NEW IDENTITY 5:1-16 Copyright Rosemary Bardsley 2012 In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus begins to outline some of the radical changes to our perspective that result from knowing him as the King. THE MEANING OF ‘BLESSED’ In Matthew 5:3-11 Jesus describes people who are ‘blessed’. The word ‘blessed’, translating the Greek makarioi, is sometimes translated ‘how fortunate’ or ‘happy’. The word has an interesting derivation, with the root mak from which our word ‘macro’ is derived.

In current secular terms we could perhaps substitute ‘has got it all’ or ‘has got it made’. In spiritual terms, ‘blessed’ means to be the ‘ privileged recipient of divine favour’ A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature. And it is here that we come against a difficulty. From Biblical times to the present day, prosperity and good health have been commonly viewed as God’s blessing, a reward for being ‘good’, and poverty and sickness seen as the evidence of God’s judgment on a life of visible or hidden sin. This concept was in the minds of Job’s three friends when they saw his financial empire and health ripped away from him. Contemporary ‘Christian’ perceptions of ‘happiness’ or ‘blessedness’. What physical states or conditions do some Christians associate with ‘blessedness’, and even go so far as to teach that the absence of these ‘blessings’ indicates an absence of faith, or the presence of sin?

This problem with the meaning of ‘blessed’ reflects the human perception that we must relate to God on a tit-for-tat basis. This assumes that we have the ability in ourselves to satisfy his demands and keep his commandments. It also reflects our earth-bound mindset that locks us into physical time-space existence, and forces us to view God’s promises within a physical time-space context. When Jesus preached this sermon, he was speaking to a people who were locked into this physical mindset: the Jews were looking for a Messianic kingdom of physical blessedness, in which they would be delivered from the Roman domination, in which the Davidic kingdom would be restored in terms of both the king and the extent of the kingdom, and in which peace and prosperity would be the order of the day. Concepts of human power and human importance figured greatly in this physical perception. Then Jesus came and in this Sermon on the Mount, as in all of his teaching, challenged these perceptions of both ‘blessedness’ and the identity of those who are ‘blessed’. Shattering the images of physical blessedness and human power and importance, he lifts our thoughts to an entirely different plane.
