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 [[Morality|moral]] teachings and duties than anywhere else in the Bible. Many [[Christianity|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]].
