Sermon on the Mount E4 \u2013 What does Jesus mean when he calls people \u201cblessed\u201d in the first section of the Sermon on the Mount? The Greek word translated as \u201cblessed\u201d is makarios, and its Hebrew equivalent is ashrey, which means \u201cthe good life.\u201d But there\u2019s another Hebrew word for blessing, barukh, which refers to blessings from God. In this episode, Tim, Jon, and guests unpack what it means to be blessed according to Jesus\u2019 counterintuitive message as he ushers in the kingdom of the skies.
