The '''Sermon on the Mount''' is the common name given to a sermon delivered by [[Jesus]] of Nazareth as recorded in the [[Gospel of Matthew]] 5-7. The sermon (the longest single passage in the Bible containing only the words of Jesus) more clearly articulates his most significant moral teachings and duties than anywhere else in the Bible. Many Christians consider the Sermon on the Mount to be one of the greatest messages ever delivered to mankind.

Many of Jesus' most iconic sayings appear in this sermon such as: "turn the other cheek",  and the "do unto others as you would have them do unto you".  Perhaps the most quoted part of the Sermon on the Mount are the  [[Beatitudes]] which list those who are blessed, including the poor, the meek, and the children.  The Sermon on the Mount, according to Matthew, then goes on to introduce the [[Lord's Prayer]].
