Footnotes

  1. Matthew 5:5 They will … promised This is the meaning of these words in Ps. 37:11. Here, they probably refer to a spiritual “promised land,” but they can also mean “The earth will belong to them.”
  2. Matthew 5:6 want … more than anything else Literally, “hunger and thirst for righteousness.”
