The First Beatitude

I have been hoping to do a study of the Beatitudes at some point while reading at the branch church of Christ, Scientist of which I am a member, and the time seems right. So here is a look at the first one, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."

As always, follow the links to see each citation, or cop and paste the whole thing into Concord if you have that program and view it from there (citation by citation or print it out).
