Text for reading 

13. The sermon on the plain - Then down with them, Jesus stood in the plain, where all the crowd sought to touch him, because it went under and healed them all. And, raising his eyes to his disciples, he said: "Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, you will be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you and when you split up, and revile you, and cast out your name as evil, because the Son of man. Take your rest this day, be glad: for behold, great is your reward in heaven: for so did their fathers unto the prophets. But woe to you rich! for ye have received your consolation. Woe to you, you who are fed up, because ye have famine. Woe unto you that laugh now, for ye shall mourn and weep. Woe unto you when all men speak well of you, so did their fathers to the false prophets. But unto you which hear, I say: Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you, bless them that curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, offer also the other; and there that I removed the cover, or to refuse robe, and gives whatever you ask, and when to take what is yours, not him become the ask. And as ye would that men should do unto you, just as you do them, too." (Luke 6:17 to 6:31.)

14. Jesus advises us to love even our enemies - Following the well-known sermon, the Master noted that sinners also love those who love them and do good to those who act like this with them, but we should not proceed in this way. "But love ye your enemies, do good, and lend, expecting nothing, and your reward will be great, and ye sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and evil," Jesus advised, adding "Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father is merciful. Judge not, and will not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned; liberate, and will drop you. Dai, and be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, shaken down and overflowing, will be poured into your lap because with the same measure that ye also measure will measure again." (Luke 6:32 to 6:38.)

15. Each tree is known by its fruit - At the end of the sermon, Jesus chained a number of valuable lessons, beginning and ending with questions: Can the blind lead the blind? Do not they both fall into a pit? Then Jesus made the following observations: The disciple is not above his teacher, but all that is perfect shall be as his master. Why look at the mote that is in the eye of our brother, and not notice the beam that is in our own eye? There is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bring forth good fruit. Each tree is known by its own fruit because they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from thistles. The good man of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth good and the bad man of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth evil because of the abundance of his heart the mouth speaks. Why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say? (Luke 6:39 to 6:46.)

16. Jesus heals by far the centurion's servant - Finished the sermon, Jesus entered Capernaum, where the servant of a certain centurion, who was dear, was sick and dying. Some elders of the Jews asked Jesus to heal this man, because the captain had built a synagogue. Jesus answered the request and with them, but when he was near the house, the centurion sent word to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof. Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come to you: But say a word and my servant shall be healed. I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under my power, say this: Go, and he goes, and to another, Come, and he comes, and to my servant, Do this, and he does it. " Jesus, on hearing these words, he marveled and turned and said to them that followed: "I tll you that even in Israel have I found such faith." Back to the house, sent the centurion found the little servant who once seemed about to die. (Luke 7:1 to 7:10.) 

Answers to questions 

1. In that place, according to Luke, Jesus taught that the teachings in Matthew's Gospel are known by the name of Sermon on the Mount?  

According to Luke, was a flat spot, which he descended with his peers, that Jesus uttered the famous sermon. (Luke 6:17 to 6:49.)

2. In the Gospel according to Matthew are nine beatitudes of the Sermon on the Mount. In Luke, how many and what are they? What are the differences between one and another evangelist?  

In Luke there are four beatitudes. Hey them: Blessed are ye poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, you will be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you and when you split up, and revile you, and cast out your name as evil, because the Son of man. Take your rest this day, be glad: for behold, great is your reward in heaven: for so did their fathers unto the prophets.

Matthew, as was said, there are nine, Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called sons of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when ye revile and persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

The Beatitudes in Matthew's text, also embrace the meek, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers and those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake. (Luke 6:20 to 6:25. See also Matthew 5:1 to 5:12.) 

3. Who is Jesus compares the man who built his house upon the rock?  

The man who built his house upon the rock is similar to those who hear the words of Jesus and the note. (Luke 6:47 to 6:49.) 

4. How did the resurrection, in the city of Nain, the only child of a woman who was widowed by the way?  

Jesus came to town when I followed the procession with the dead boy, the son of a widow's place. Seeing her, the Lord was moved with compassion for her, and said unto her, Weep not. Then, touched the coffin and said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise. And the dead sat up and began to speak. Seized on all the fear, but they glorified God, saying, A great prophet is among us, and God has visited his people. (Luke 7:11 to 7:16.) 

5. With what words Jesus, addressing the crowd, he referred to John the Baptist?  

As soon as the messengers of John had gone, Jesus began to say to the people concerning John, What went ye out to see the desert? A reed shaken by the wind? But what went ye see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously clothed, and live delicately, are in kings' courts. But what went ye see? a prophet? Yes, I say, and more than a prophet. This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare before thee on thy way. And I say unto you, among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John the Baptist, but least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. (Luke 7:24 to 7:28.)
