To understand the so-called “Beatitudes,” it’s helpful to read them alongside the similar statements of both blessing and woe that we find in Luke 6. Old Testament scholar Walter Brueggemann gives us a helpful way of understanding these strange pronouncements: they are words of blessing for the “have-nots” of society who need some good news from God. But what about the “haves”? How will more privileged people take what Jesus has to say?
