Why it’s interesting

Matthew gathers the Beatitudes on a mountain; Luke has a shorter, blunter set on a plain ("Blessed are you who are poor") paired with matching "woes." Each evangelist arranges related sayings into a discourse of his own design and sets it where his narrative needs it. The line itself echoes Psalm 37:11.
