No choice in the poll reflects my thoughts.
The beatitudes in Matthew 5 are presented to us as Christ presented them to the multitude on the mount.
I believe he stated them at different times and different places, and adapted them to reveal more than one aspect (not interpretation) of them.
They exist in another form in Luke 6, and this was "in the plain", vs 17, not on the mount.
