Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
All Commentaries on Matthew 5:10 Go To Matthew 5
Hilary of Poitiers
AD 368
Thus, lastly, He includes those in the beatitude whose will is ready to suffer all things for Christ, who is our righteousness. For these then also is the kingdom preserved, for they are in the contempt of this world poor in spirit.
