The term "blessed" implies a state of spiritual well-being and prosperity, despite external circumstances. Hatred from others is often a result of living a life that reflects Christ's teachings, which can be countercultural. This echoes the experiences of the prophets in the Old Testament, who were often despised for delivering God's messages (<a href="/jeremiah/20-8.htm">Jeremiah 20:8-10</a>).and when they exclude you Exclusion here refers to being ostracized from social, religious, or familial circles. In the first-century Jewish context, following Jesus could lead to being cast out of the synagogue, which was a central part of community life (<a href="/john/9-22.htm">John 9:22</a>). This exclusion is a form of persecution that believers are called to endure, as it aligns them with the sufferings of Christ, who was also rejected by His own people (<a href="/john/1-11.htm">John 1:11</a>).and insult you Insults are verbal attacks that aim to demean and belittle. In the cultural context of Jesus' time, honor and shame were significant social values. To be insulted was to be publicly shamed, yet Jesus teaches that such insults for His sake are a cause for blessing. This reflects the experience of early Christians who were mocked and ridiculed for their faith (<a href="/acts/2-13.htm">Acts 2:13</a>).and reject your name as evil To have one's name rejected as evil indicates a complete disassociation and vilification. In biblical terms, a name represents one's character and identity. This rejection is a profound form of persecution, as it involves being labeled as morally corrupt or dangerous. This mirrors the accusations against Jesus, who was called a blasphemer and a threat to religious authority (<a href="/mark/3-22.htm">Mark 3:22</a>).because of the Son of Man The title "Son of Man" is a messianic term that Jesus frequently used for Himself, drawing from <a href="/daniel/7-13.htm">Daniel 7:13-14</a>, where the Son of Man is given authority and an everlasting kingdom. Suffering for the sake of the Son of Man connects believers to the mission and identity of Jesus. It signifies that the persecution is not due to personal failings but because of allegiance to Christ, who Himself faced rejection and suffering (<a href="/isaiah/53-3.htm">Isaiah 53:3</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/j/jesus_christ.htm">Jesus Christ</a> The speaker of this verse, offering a teaching on the blessings of persecution for His sake. 2. <a href="/topical/d/disciples.htm">Disciples</a> The immediate audience of Jesus' teaching, representing all believers who follow Him. 3. <a href="/topical/s/son_of_man.htm">Son of Man</a> A title Jesus uses for Himself, emphasizing His role in God's redemptive plan. 4. <a href="/topical/p/persecution.htm">Persecution</a> The event or experience of being hated, excluded, insulted, and rejected for one's faith in Jesus. 5. <a href="/topical/t/the_kingdom_of_god.htm">The Kingdom of God</a> The ultimate place of blessing and reward for those who endure persecution for Christ's sake.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/u/understanding_persecution.htm">Understanding Persecution</a> Recognize that persecution is a mark of true discipleship and a cause for blessing, not despair. <a href="/topical/e/endurance_in_faith.htm">Endurance in Faith</a> Strengthen your resolve to stand firm in your faith, knowing that persecution is part of the Christian journey. <a href="/topical/j/joy_in_suffering.htm">Joy in Suffering</a> Embrace the joy that comes from being identified with Christ, even in the face of rejection and insult. <a href="/topical/w/witness_through_trials.htm">Witness through Trials</a> Use experiences of persecution as opportunities to witness to the truth and love of Jesus Christ. <a href="/topical/e/eternal_perspective.htm">Eternal Perspective</a> Keep your focus on the eternal rewards promised by God, which far outweigh any temporary suffering.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_luke_6.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Luke 6</a> <a href="/q/why_do_believers_face_shame_if_god_protects.htm">Psalm 25:3 – If “no one who hopes in God will ever be put to shame,” why do dedicated followers experience persecution and public disgrace? </a> <a href="/q/why_trust_future_blessings_for_the_poor.htm">(Luke 6:20-26) Why believe promises of future blessings for the poor and warnings for the rich when many see no real-world proof of such reversals?</a> <a href="/q/is_loving_enemies_feasible_in_conflict.htm">(Luke 6:27-36) Is loving enemies and doing good to those who hate you actually feasible in a world dominated by conflict?</a> <a href="/q/bible's_view_on_lgbtq_persecution.htm">What does the Bible say about LGBTQ persecution?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/luke/6.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(22) Blessed are ye.--See Notes on <a href="/context/matthew/5-10.htm" title="Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.">Matthew 5:10-12</a>.

An onlook into the yet distant future. These words would be repeated by many a brave confessor in the days when persecution, at the hands of a far stronger and more far-reaching government than that of Jerusalem, should be the general lot of his followers. We find from pagan writers of the next age that Christians were charged with plotting every vile and detestable crime that could be conceived against man-. kind (see, for instance, the historian Tacitus, 'Annal.,' 15:44; Suetonius, 'Nero.,' 16). <a href="/commentaries/luke/6-22.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>Blessed Μακάριοί (Makarioi) Adjective - Nominative Masculine Plural <a href="/greek/strongs_3107.htm">Strong's 3107: </a> Happy, blessed, to be envied.
