Matthew 5 The Sermon on the Mount
President Harold B. Lee taught that in this sermon “the
Master has given us somewhat of a revelation of his own character and a
blueprint for our own lives” (Decisions of Successful Living [1973], 56).
President Thomas S. Monson spoke of the Sermon on the Mount and the Galilean hillside where it took place: “Here it was that the greatest person who ever lived delivered the greatest sermon ever given—the Sermon on the Mount” (“The Way Home,” Ensign, May 1975, 15).
