DE WIT DE KONING, Jacobus. Righteousness in the structure of the Beatitudes as key to the eschatological understanding of Jesus as the new Moses in the Sermon on the Mount. In Skriflig (Online) [online]. 2019, vol.53, n.1, pp.1-11. ISSN 2305-0853.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/ids.v53i1.2468.

In this article, it is indicated that the term δικαιοσύνη [righteousness] in the structure of the Beatitudes gives substance to the meaning that Matthew wants his readers to see the righteousness which must surpass that of the Scribes and the Pharisees (Mt 5:20). In addition, this righteousness can be regarded as the eschatological commandments of Jesus, the eschatological Moses, which should not be broken. This righteousness is the content of the fulfilled law and prophets, the eschatological will of God for people belonging to his kingdom. The righteousness in the structure of the Beatitudes is therefore the key to the eschatological understanding of Jesus as the new Moses in the Sermon on the Mount.
