Luke – Greek Mark – Roman Matthew – Hebrew How does Matthew’s emphasis for discipleship to the Hebrew audience effect our understanding of the Sermon of the Mount? Matthew is discipleship with the King Jesus.  An outline of the  Sermon of the Mount: Prologue: Matthew 5:3-12 Thematic Statement 5:13-16 Body of Sermon: 5:17-7:12 Conclusion: Matthew 7:13-27 In Part 1, Zane explains the Prologue and covers the Beatitudes.
