Sermon on the Mount: The Message of the Kingdom (Preaching the Word)
Source: The Gospel Coalition
Do you want to know what kind of character you should have as a Christian? What ought to define your outer way of life and your inner habit of mind?
Within the Gospel of Matthew, the Sermon on the Mount speaks directly to those questions, exposing us to truths that stand to test us and bring new relevance to our lives. Perhaps there is no other section of Scripture that so directly brings you face to face with your own humanity and the grace of salvation as the Sermon.
In this classic commentary, now revised with a fresh look and ESV Bible references, pastor Kent Hughes faithfully explores the words that penetrate our hearts, and brings forth the lessons from this matchless model of the Christian life. Both humbling and encouraging, it is the greatest message ever preached.

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“I’m delighted to endorse the philosophy behind this series. Here sounds out the voice not of the scholar in the study but of the scholar in the pulpit. The authors are all able teachers who regularly expound God’s living Word to his people. May this rich material give us ‘patterns of preaching’ that will not only feed the flock, but, by God’s grace, change the church.”
R. C. Lucas
Retired Rector, St. Helen’s Church, Bishopsgate, London, England
“For this outstanding series of expository commentaries, Kent Hughes has assembled a team of unusually gifted scholar–preachers. The series will be widely used and much sought after.”
Eric J. Alexander
Retired Senior Minister, St. George’s–Tron Parish Church, Glasgow, Scotland
“It is a pleasure to commend this series of homiletical commentaries. They fill an enormous vacuum that exists between the practical needs of the pastor/teacher and the critical exegetical depth of most commentaries.”
Walter C. Kaiser Jr.
President Emeritus and Distinguished Professor of Old Testament and Ethics, Gordon–Conwell Theological Seminary
“Throughout the Christian centuries, working pastors have been proving themselves to be the best of all Bible expositors. Kent Hughes stands in this great tradition, and his exciting expositions uphold it worthily.”
J. I. Packer
Board of Governors’ Professor of Theology, Regent College
“There is a long history of informed, edifying biblical expositions that have been mightily used of God to shape and strengthen the church. These volumes admirably fit this tradition.”
D. A. Carson
Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
“The single best resource for faithful biblical exposition available today. A great boon for genuine reformation!”
Timothy George
Dean, Beeson Divinity School, Samford University
“This series resonates with the priorities of the pulpit. No academic aloofness here, but down–to–earth, preacher–to–preacher meat for God’s people.”
Bryan Chapell
Senior Pastor, Grace Presbyterian Church (PCA), Peoria, IL
