 SERMON ON THE MOUNT in the Bible Encyclopedia - ISBE (Bible History Online)
The Sermon was evidently addressed, primarily, to the disciples of Jesus.
It is not implied that there was any such formal plan before the mind of Jesus as He spoke, but it is believed that the outline presents a faithful syllabus of the argument of the Sermon as preserved to us.
There have been and are today scholars who regard the sermons recorded in Matthew and Luke as collections of sayings spoken on different occasions, and maintain that they do not represent any connected discourse ever delivered by Jesus.

The Bible and the hymn book were his traveling companions.
They believed in a demonstrative religion, induced by the stirring of the feelings to their very depths; and were but little interested in, or affected by, a sermon read from manuscript, in a low tone of voice.

 Sermon on the mount (WebBible Encyclopedia) - ChristianAnswers.Net
After spending a night in solemn meditation and prayer in the lonely mountain-range to the west of the Lake of Galilee (Luke 6:12), on the following morning our Lord called to him his disciples, and from among them chose twelve, who were to be henceforth trained to be his apostles (Mark 3:14,15).
It was afterwards called the "Mount of Beatitudes."

When I first entered the pastorate, I considered preparing and preaching Sunday's sermon the essence of ministry.
