Following Jesus: Matthew’s Sermon on the Mount
“The Book of Deuteronomy— The Theological Center of the Old Testament”
Jesus’ teaching in the Sermon on the Mount appears after Jesus has called his first disciples. These difficult words shape a life of discipleship that is frequently at odds with the values and practices of Roman imperial society. Jesus invites his followers to a way of life centered on and expressive of God’s purposes to bless all people
An exploration of the Book of Deuteronomy and its message: Talk 1 will focus on the overall structure and unity of the Book; Talk 2 will examine the powerful rhetoric of the Prologue and Epilogue in chapters 1-11 and 26-31; Talk 3 will examine the Deuteronomic Law Code in chapters 12-26 and its special themes; Talk 4 will focus on the theology of Deuteronomy as it influenced much of the rest of the Old Testament.
• Mountain Climbing: (The Contexts for Matthew’s Sermon on the Mount) • Visions of an Alternative Way of Being (5:3-16) • Embodying God’s Purposes: Three Acts of Justice (6:1-18) • The Rains Came Down and the Floods Came Up: Hearing These Words and Doing Them? (6:19-7:27)

2008 Castelot Summer Scripture
Fr. Richard Macey Matthew the Book of Mercy
He is a parish priest of the Archdiocese of Detroit, ordained in 1975. Completed studies at Sacred Heart Seminary, St. John¹s Provincial Seminary and the University of Detroit. After fourteen years in parish work, he obtained a S.T.L. in Sacred Scripture from the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome. As part of those studies, he spent seven months in the Holy Land. He pastors a suburban parish, is an Adjunct Professor for Biblical Studies at Sacred Heart Major Seminary and Ss. Cyril & Methodius Seminary. He writes a weekly column on the Sunday readings for the Archdiocesan paper, the Michigan Catholic.
Jesus Proclaims the Kingdom of God The Kingdom is Proclaimed through Miracles Jesus came to proclaim the Kingdom of God by demonstrating the power of God over the works of darkness. The miracles are not just the actions of a Superman. They are the revelations of God in human form.
Matthew’s Jesus is God’s justice done mercifully and imitating God in Jesus in Matthew’s community is how the kingdom comes. They were rejected and turning from the Jewish community because of believing in Jesus and refusing to fight with them to protect the temple. They were persecuted by the Romans mercilessly and they were fighting among themselves about what it means to be not a Jewish Christian, but Christians universally. The glue that was to hold the community together in the midst of all this, and to make them graceful and true was the mystery of forgiveness, reconciliation, restitution and at-one-ment that led them ever more truly into the mercy and justice of God in Jesus. We will look at how to follow in this Jesus’ footsteps today in community. • Joseph the Catechumen and New Believer in Matthew’s Community • The Mystery of Forgiveness • The Parables as Doorways into Forgiveness, Reconciliation and At-One-Ment • The Person of Jesus in Matthew, from His Names and His Revelation
The Kingdom is Proclaimed through Parables Jesus came to proclaim the Kingdom of God by telling stories. Just as he opened the eyes of the blind to see, he opens the heart to understand.
