Jesus Teaches (Matthew 4:12 – 11:1)
With a focus on the Sermon on the Mount
- Jesus goes up on the Mountain to address the people of God, giving them a new law and a new covenant. This echoes Moses on the mountain and coming down the with the Ten Commandments. As you think of the law, commandments and teachings that we hear on a mountain top, which one do you remember the most? Which one strikes a chord in your heart?
- Matthew wants us to know from his language and the action of this Gospel that Jesus is the one who has come to fulfill the law. How do you see his law being similar and different from the law that came before him?
- What do these laws have to do with us today? How can they be a part of our everyday lives?
