Which term refers to the eight blessings proclaimed by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount?
Correct Answer:
Beatitudes
Explanation:
Beatitudes are the eight blessings proclaimed by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. These statements all start with “Blessed are…” and describe the kinds of people God values and the promises connected to those qualities. The term beatitudes comes from a word meaning blessed, and this label is specifically used for that particular set of eight teachings found in Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5). Knowing this helps: parables are Jesus’ teaching stories, miracles are powerful acts, and apostles are the twelve followers chosen to spread his message. So the word that names this group of eight blessings is beatitudes.
