Blessed are the Meek (Gentle)

Meek and gentle are the same Greek word in this passage, so when Jesus blesses the meek he blesses the gentle.  He promises that the gentle win in the end.  Rooted in Psalm 37, as well as the life of Moses, we explore what it means to be gentle.  We see Jesus as the Gentle One who, at the cross, does not punish us in wrath but gently loves us with a sacrificial love."
