Description

For those who've been perplexed by the paradoxical teachings of Jesus in the Beatitudes, this is a book that can provide some answers. Paul W. Meier is a retired pastor who loves to research the ancient languages of the Bible. Just like he did in his first book, "The Lord's Prayer Finding New Meanings Within the Language Jesus Spoke," he offers some exciting new ways to appreciate the Beatitudes through its interpretation from the Aramaic perspective. Each beatitude is explored to reveal internal, external, literal, metaphorical, and mystical treasures common to the Aramaic language.

You won't have to dig through commentaries anymore to try to understand the strange claims of Jesus. Few have researched Jesus's native language to find answers. The wisdom of Jesus's teachings will make a lot more sense.

Here's what you'll discover
•translation from one language to another requires greater flexibility than simply changing one word for another.
•the poetic and mystical nature of Aramaic invites greater exploration at body, mind, and spirit in each beatitude
•to be "blessed" means more than having positive things happen to you
•heaven and earth are metaphors that apply to your life today
•mourning means much more than loss of a loved one and leads you to redefine who you are
•meekness is a trait that indicates greater self-control and strength than most would think
•the reality of following Jesus stimulates actions prompting responses that those attached to the world may not consider "blessed"
•questions at the end for small group Bible studies and so much more!

After reading the only review posted, I felt obligated to post another perspective. I am a senior citizen who has met with the same seniors for over 15 years. We selected this book and are studying it at this time. To call it liberal is a possible point of view. To call it a book that inspires conversation is another perspective. We have remarked how much we are interested in thinking about Jesus's words from a different point of view... even as He may have meant to say it 2000 years ago. Before you cast it aside.... I ask you to give it a chance.

The Beatitudes Finding New Meanings Within the Language Jesus Spoke edition by Paul W Meier Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews


It's an interesting and thought provoking study book about the Beatitudes.
I thought this book was very good at giving background explanations of many terms in their original languages. It gives the English printed word a fullness that only an ancient language gives. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to read something that instructs and deepens one's understanding of the words of Jesus.
This is written in such an interesting way with such down to earth examples. It is a very interesting read.
Love beatitudes. This book is an easy to read with a great description of The Beatitudes. Thank You Paul W. Meier.
Paul Meier tops his other good books here! The insights BREATHE with Spirit winds, and help us to see the Beatitudes with a new perspective--larger, deeper, and more embracing of the lives we live today. Yes! Yes! Yes! So valuable!
I got this very quick! I enjoy buying items from and hate that there has been negative feedback regarding reviews!
When I got In Living Color The Beatitudes, I expected to receive strength from an in-depth look at the words Christ used in His Sermon on the Mount. I typically delve into word studies to gain a greater understanding of Bible passages. While I did receive a greater perception of the historical context, the literary concentration undermined the power of Jesus' words to enable us to live triumphantly as His followers in this day and age.
