Sermon on the Mount

In Matthew 5–7, there is a long speech by Jesus that is known as the “Sermon on the Mount”. This name is taken from the introductory verses:

“Jesus saw the crowds and went up a hill, where he sat down. His disciples gathered round him, and he began to teach them” (Matthew 5:1-2).
