Reflection Corner “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven . . . ” Ma hew 5: 1-12 Today’s Gospel is the beau ful “Bea tudes” reading from the Sermon on the Mount, Ma hew’s compila on of the sayings and teachings of Jesus. The word “blessed,” as used by Jesus in the eight maxims, was wri en in Greek as makarios, a word which indicates a joy that is God-like in its serenity and totality. Specific Greek words used throughout the text indicate several important meanings: “The poor in spirit:” those who are detached from material things, who put their trust in God. “The sorrowing:” this Bea tude speaks of the value of caring and compassion – the hall- marks of Jesus’ teaching. “The lowly:” the Greek word used here is praotes – true humility that banishes all pride; the “blessed” who accept the necessity to learn and grow and realize their need to be for- given. “They who show mercy:” the Greek word chesedh used here indicates the ability to get “inside a person's a skin” un l we can see things from his/her perspec ve, consider things from his/her experience mind and feel his/her joys and sorrows. “The peacemakers:” peace is not merely the absence of trouble or discord but peace is a posi ve condi on: it is everything that provides and makes for humanity’s highest good; note, too, that the “blessed” are described as peace-makers and not simply peace-lovers. Today we celebrate the feast of all the saints — not just the “official” saints we have read about and revere in the liturgical calendar, but the saints and martyrs we have known and who have lived among us, the “blessed” of the Gospel through whom God touches us and our world. All Saints is the fes val in honor of those who gave their lives for others, those who taught us the wonders of life through their brave struggle to live, those who died for the cause of jus ce, who le no other mark on the world than their love of God in their love for others. The saints are a living presence among us, sources of inspira on and guidance as we make our way, one day, into their company. Saints are the “blessed” of the Gospel who seek God’s way of compassion, who live lives of humble gra tude for the gi of life, who build peace, who live justly and seek jus ce for all God’s children, who imitate the mercy and consola on of God.
