The opinion of the scholars is divide on the origin and use of the Greek word...... Which is translated as blessed, happy, fortunate in the Biblical references to the Beatitudes. The author Sr Rogi Kottukapilly goes deep into the meaning of the beattitudes or Makarisms in the Old and New Testaments and defines makarism as a declaration formula to declare a single person or a category of persons who are fortunate because they are oor a category of persons who are fortunate because they are or will be blessed by God. The author then proceeds to the Johannine literature especially to the fourth Gospel where there are two mechanisms in the context f the passion of Jesus in Jn 13:17 and 29:29. There are seven mechanisms in the book of Revelation, while there isn't any makarism in the Johannine epistles. All the mechanisms scattered in different contexts. Knowing, believing and doing are the three actions that the mechanisms highlight in the context of the passion of Jesus
