\subsection{Matthew 5}
\subsubsection{The Beatitudes}
\VS{1} Now having seen the crowd he went up to the mountain, and having sat, his 
disciples came to him. 
\VS{2} And having opened his mouth he taught them saying:

\VS{3} Blessed\footnote{means ``truly rich,'' was used to describe the state 
of the gods. Vss. 3\EnDash{}11 use this same word.} 
are the beggars\footnote{Someone completely dependent on the generosity of others} in spirit \\
For theirs is the kingdom of the heavens. \\
\VS{4} 
\footnote{vs 4 then vs 5: \sinaiticus{}BW \hesychian \koine{} all; vs. 5 then vs. 4: D \vulgate{} }
Blessed are those mourning, \\
For they will be comforted. \\
\VS{5} Blessed are the humble,\footnote{PRAUS ($\pi\rho\alpha\upsilon\varsigma$) \BrBDAG{}: ``not being overly impressed by a sense of one's self-importance; gentleness, humility, courtesy, considerateness''. (Perhaps the opposite of HUBRIS --- arrogance/pride.)} \\
For they will inherit the land\footnote{or `earth'. See Ps.37:11}. \\
\VS{6} Blessed are those hungering and thirsting for justice, \\\
For they will be filled. \\
\VS{7} Blessed are the merciful, \\
For they will be shown mercy. \\
\VS{8} Blessed are the pure in heart, \\
For they will see God. \\
\VS{9} Blessed are the peacemakers, \\
For they will be called [the] sons of God. \\
\VS{10} Blessed are those persecuted because of justice, \\
For theirs is the kingdom of the heavens.

\VS{11} Blessed are you when they reproach you and persecute you and say all 
wickedness\fnPoneros{} against you falsely\footnote{``falsely'' \sinaiticus{}W\hesychian{}\koine{} all \vulgate{}; omit: D} 
because of me. 
\VS{12} Be rejoicing and be being glad, for great [is] your 
reward in the heavens. For thus they persecuted the prophets before you.

\subsubsection{Salt and Light}
\VS{13} You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt become foolish\footnote{`tasteless'?}, by 
what will it be made salty? [It is] worthy for nothing except to be thrown out 
[and] trampled by men. 
\VS{14} You are the light of the world. [a] city cannot be 
hid [when] set on [a] mountain. 
\VS{15} Neither do men light [a] lamp and place it under 
the bushel basket, but [rather] upon the lamp stand, and it illumines all those in 
the house. 
\VS{16} So let\fnImperative{} your light shine before men, 
that they see your good works and glorify your father in the heavens.

\subsubsection{Fulfillment of the Law and Prophets}
\VS{17} Do not think that I came to destroy the law or the prophets. I came 
not to destroy but to fulfill\footnote{or ``satisfy''}. 
\VS{18} For truly I say to you, until heaven 
and earth pass away, one dot-of-an-``i'' or cross-of-a-``t'' will 
\negd{not} pass away from the law, until all come to pass. 
\VS{19} For whoever sets aside\footnote{or ``loosens'', ``does away with''} 
one of these least commandments and so teaches men, he will be 
called least in the kingdom of the heavens. [But whoever does and teaches 
[them], this [one] will be called great in the kingdom of the heavens.]\footnote{insert ``But whoever does... kingdom of the heavens'': \sinaiticus{}DW; omit: everyone else } 
\VS{20} For I say to you that unless your justice abounds more than [that] of 
the scribes and Pharisees, you shall \negd{not} enter into the kingdom of the heavens.

\subsubsection{Anger and Murder}
\VS{21} You heard that it was said to the ancients\footnote{Ex.20:13}: You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be liable for judgment. 
\VS{22} But I say to you that everyone [being] angry with his brother \footnote{insert 
``without cause'' DW \koine\ most; text: \sinaiticus{}B few \vulgate{} \papyrus{67} } will be liable for judgment. And Whoever says to his brother: Raka\footnote{the Aramaic 
word ``Raka'' means ``[You] worthless'', ``good-for nothing''. But `raqa' in the dialect
of Aramaic probably spoken in \Iesous' region means `I spit on you'.}, he will 
be liable to the council, and whoever says: [You] stupid, he will be liable to 
the Gehenna fire\fnGehenna{}. 
\VS{23} If therefore you bring your gift to the altar and 
there remember that your brother has something against you, 
\VS{24} leave your gift there before the altar, and be going first [and] be reconciled to your brother, and then having come, be bringing your gift. 
\VS{25} Be being kind 
to your opponent swiftly while you are with him in the road, lest your 
opponent deliver you up to the judge and judge to the officer, and you be 
thrown into prison. 
\VS{26} Truly I say to you, you shall \negd{not} 
come out from there until you have yielded your last penny. 

\subsubsection{Adultery}
\VS{27} You heard that it was said\footnote{Ex.20:14}: You shall not commit adultery. 
\VS{28} But I say to you that everyone looking at [someone's] wife\footnote{the Greek word GUNA (``GOO-nay'') means both `woman' and `wife'. Since the context is about \textit{adultery}, where at least one party is married, `[someone's] wife seems the
better choice than `woman'}
to desire her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 
\VS{29} And if your right eye 
makes you stumble, pluck it out and throw [it] from you, for it is profitable to 
you that one of your parts perish and not your whole body be thrown into 
Gehenna\fnGehenna{}. 
\VS{30} And if your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and 
throw it from you, for it is profitable to you that one of your parts perish 
and not your whole body be thrown into Gehenna\fnGehenna{}.

\subsubsection{Divorce}\footnote{In \Iesous's day it was very easy for a man to divorce his wife, and given the culture of the day she had few choices for economic survival.}
\VS{31} And it was said\footnote{Deut.24:1}: Whoever puts away his wife, let\fnImperative{} him give her [a] divorce. 
\VS{32} But I say to you 
that everyone putting away his wife except [by] reason of fornication makes her 
commit adultery, and whoever marries the [one] having been put away commits 
adultery. 

\subsubsection{Oaths}
\VS{33} Again you have heard that it was said to the 
ancients\footnote{Lev.20:7}: You shall not swear falsely, but you will perform your oaths to 
the Lord. 
\VS{34} But I say to you do not swear at all, neither by heaven, for it is 
God's throne, 
\VS{35} nor by earth, for it is his footstool, nor by 
Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great king, 
\VS{36} neither by your own head, for you are not able to make one hair white or black. 
\VS{37} Let\fnImperative{} your word yes [be] yes [and] 
no [be] no, and what is more than this is from the wicked\fnPoneros{} [one].

\subsubsection{Retaliation}
\VS{38} You have heard that it was said\footnote{Ex.21:24}: Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth. 
\VS{39} But I say to you not to oppose wickedness\fnPoneros{}, but whoever strikes\footnote{or 
``thrashes''} the right [side] of your cheek, turn to him the other also. 
\VS{40} And to the [one] wanting to sue [you] and take your shirt, 
give up to him your coat also. 
\VS{41} And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. 
\VS{42} Give to whoever requests of you, and from the [one] wanting to borrow from you do not turn away. 

\subsubsection{Love for enemies}
\VS{43} You have heard that it was said\footnote{Lev.19:18}: You shall agape-love your neighbor, and you shall hate your enemy. 
\VS{44} But I say to you, be agape-loving 
your enemies \footnote{insert ``be blessing those cursing you, be doing good 
to those hating you'' DW \koine\ many; text: \sinaiticus{}B few} and be praying for 
those persecuting you, 
\VS{45} in order that you become sons of your father 
in [the] heavens. For he makes his sun [to] rise upon the wicked\fnPoneros{} and the good, and sends rain upon the just and the unjust. 
\VS{46} For if you agape-love those agape-loving you, what reward do you have? 
Don't the tax-collectors do likewise? 
\VS{47} And if you only greet your brothers, what do you do more [than anyone else]? 
Don't the nations\footnote{i.e. the Gentiles} do likewise? 
\VS{48} Therefore be complete\fnTelos{} as your heavenly father is complete\fnTelos{}.
