Resumen:
The transforming teaching of Jesus demonstrated in the beatitudes is anchored in his ethics that are grounded in his love. This research is divided into three chapters: The Gospel of Matthew and its context, the Beatitudes and Jesus' attitude in harmony with his preaching. The first chapter deals with the Gospel of Matthew and seeks to detect: authorship, sources, location, date, and also the social practice of Jesus. The second studies the Beatitudes in Matthew, their similarities and differences with Luke and also confronts teaching based on being with the capitalist logic of possessing. The third chapter deals with the relationship between words and action in the public activity of Jesus and tries to relate this to the current teaching practices. Under the title, "The kerygma in transformative teaching: "ethics-teaching" of the Beatitudes , the dialogue focuses on education in the service of God's kingdom in any space or environment wherever it happens. From the Beatitudes, which aim to bring God and people closer and make faith concrete, it is clear that the position of Jesus is with the poor, the simple, the downtrodden, in their many faces: children, women, poor, sick and others. Jesus emphasizes what is essential: the human being. Therefore, this research concerned itself with bringing the practical and present dimension of the teaching of the Beatitudes that wishes to show that the kingdom of God is possible in Jesus. He gives new meaning to human life, pointing to the place where God wants Christians to come. Very different from a simple transference of knowledge, Jesus shows that justice and solidarity are completely above the law. And that service is not characterized as law but as impelled by grace. In this perspective, transformative teaching has eyes for those who are disadvantaged and encourages them to act contrary to the existing unfair structures. It moves to view them as friends just as God chooses to be our friend and when someone questions him, he answer just: "I AM THAT I AM." Teaching in a transformative perspective is only possible if the one who teaches has been transformed. Being transformed by God's Word is to be faithful to Jesus and his teaching that invites first the top leaders to be converted, those who need to understand and help people. This is true teaching and worship. What underlies the beatitudes is the ethics of being. Values such as justice and solidarity are born from Christianity, by which the transformative teaching perspective requires urgency to act for change, to improve undignified situations. Namely, teaching as the example set by Jesus goes beyond communicating or transferring, it implies caring, being concerned about others, about our neighbor. This, because obviously the closer we are to the teachings of Jesus the more human we become.
