Fr. Cajetan Cuddy, O.P., discusses the theological significance of the Beatitudes in St. Luke’s Gospel, revealing them as a portrait of Christ and an invitation to share in His life. He contrasts the ephemeral promises of the world with the eternal joy of the Kingdom, urging listeners to recognize that authentic beatitude is not found in material wealth or human acclaim but in union with Christ, who is Himself the fulfillment of all desire.
