5:6 “Blessed are those who hunger ¹  and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.

Matius 25:2

[5:6]  ¹ sn Those who hunger are people like the poor Jesus has already mentioned. The term has OT roots both in conjunction with the poor (Isa 32:6-7; 58:6-7, 9-10; Ezek 18:7, 16) or by itself (Ps 37:16-19; 107:9).

[7:29]  ² sn Jesus’ teaching impressed the hearers with the directness of its claim; he taught with authority. A study of Jewish rabbinic interpretation shows that it was typical to cite a list of authorities to make one’s point. Apparently Jesus addressed the issues in terms of his own understanding.

[7:29]  ³ tn Or “their scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 2:4.

[22:39]  ⁴ sn A quotation from Lev 19:18.
