OM - Only in Matthew and Luke. The gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke contain a lot of common material. These three gospels are called the Synoptic Gospels - three voices. The Holy Spirit did this to present different pictures of Jesus. The diagram below shows how much overlap there is between the gospels. The Sermon on the Mount, 111 verses, is part of the 250 common verses occurring in Matthew and Luke.

Our study of the SOM will include all the references found in Matthew 5:1-7:28 and Luke 6:17-49. We want to hear all of Jesus' words and we want to see ourselves as we really are.
