The Beatitudes are found in the Bible in the Gospel of Matthew, specifically in Matthew 5:3-12, as part of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. These verses begin with "Blessed are" and list a series of blessings describing the attitudes and qualities valued in the Kingdom of Heaven
. Additionally, a shorter version of the Beatitudes appears in the Gospel of Luke during the Sermon on the Plain, but the most commonly referenced and detailed version is in Matthew 5. The traditional location associated with where Jesus delivered the Beatitudes is the Mount of Beatitudes, a hill in northern Israel near the Sea of Galilee, between Capernaum and Tabgha. This site overlooks the Plain of Gennesaret and has been commemorated since early Christian times as the place where Jesus gave the Sermon on the Mount, which includes the Beatitudes
