Jesus of Nazareth was born in approximately 6 (or 4) BC to his mother Mary and her husband Joseph, a carpenter. As a young man, he followed Joseph into the carpentry business but, as an adult, became renowned as a prophet and philosopher. To many of his followers, Jesus was considered to be the long-awaited Christ or Messiah. The speech in this volume was transcribed by one of his disciples, Matthew, and is commonly known as the Sermon on the Mount. It contains what is known to us today as both the Lord's Prayer and the Beatitudes (or blessings) that he offers at the outset of the speech. Jesus would eventually be arrested and crucified by the Roman government and is believed by many to have been resurrected, now sitting at the right hand of God, awaiting his return to Earth during the Second Coming.
