Jesus’ blessing of the “persecuted for righteousness’s sake” has been used to justify harmful theology and ecclesiology for as long as we’ve been making meaning of The Beatitudes.

In Matthew 5, Jesus blesses peacemakers, stating they will be called “children of God.” Our interpretation of peace is often incomplete, missing some of the important context Jesus’ audience would have had. What is a peacemaker? How do we define peace? What does it meant to be called children of God?

When we hear Jesus’s blessing of the “pure in heart”, it can be easy to read our own context(s) into a Beatitude with broader implications.

“Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.” Jesus’s affirmation of mercy speaks to more than just a way of thinking—it’s an embodied way of being.

Jesus pronounced a blessing on all who “hunger and thirst for righteousness.” Through the lens of a Christianity where sinless-ness is equated with righteousness, it can be easy to lose sight of the radical call to justice reflected in this Beatitude.

“Blessed are the meek.” We inhabit a world skeptical of meekness, one that equates gentleness and humility with weakness.
