The work of Clement of Alexandria is often understood either as an arbitrary manipulation of philosophical notions by a Christian and a misinterpretation of Greek philosophical tradition, or as an arbitrary manipulation of Christian notions by a Greek philosopher and a misinterpretation of the biblical tradition. The paper is a contribution to the discussion about the latter criticism. One of the most important reproaches concerns Clement’s underestimation of the positive value of passion and good desires. My paper is therefore focused on Clement’s concept of human “true desire” blessed by the fourth macarism of the Matthean Beatitudes, the interpretation of which seems to be one of the crucial, yet the least obvious places in the whole of Clement’s biblical interpretation.
