42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him." "

Yes, And He just might give a quiz on The Sermon on the Mount.

In the Gospels, much reference is given to Jesus going through the towns of Galilee, teaching. Other than His parables that are individually recounted, the specific teachings are not recounted. I think of the “Sermon on the Mount” as His slideshow. I’m guessing it was delivered more than once and is what the Apostles referred to when they say “Jesus taught and the people were amazed at his teachings.” It suffices to recount once in its entirety in Matthew 5-7. The various parables are the amplifications to the slides.

That’s how I look at it anyway.
