Luke 6:20-26

Blessed be ye poor; for the meaning of these beatitudes and their opposite woes, ver Lu 6:20-26, see notes on the beatitudes in Mt 5:3-12. 20-49. See sermon on the mount. Mt 5:39-48; 7:1-27; 10:24; 12:35; 15:14 Patience under trials, especially when occasioned by those whom we have labored to benefit, and a disposition to do them good in all practicable ways notwithstanding their opposition, are peculiarly pleasing to God, and prepare the soul for the special enjoyment of his love. You that are rich ; rich in this world's goods, and trust in them for happiness. You that are full; are satisfied with earthly enjoyments, and desire nothing better.

Laugh; live in thoughtlessness and sinful mirth. When all men shall speak well of you; on account of your conformity to this world in your teaching and conduct.
