RETALIATION
You heard it rhetorized, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: Exodus 21:22-27, Leviticus 24:19, 20, Deuteronomy 19:21 39 But I word to you, Resist not evil: but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, also turn the other to him: 40 and to whoever wills to have you judged to take away your tunic, release your garment also: 41 and whoever compels you to go a mile, go with him two. 42 To him who asks, give;, and from him who wills to borrow of you, turn not away. 43
LOVING YOUR ENEMY
You heard it rhetorized, Love your neighbor, and hate your enemy. Leviticus 19:18, Psalm 139:21, 22 44 But I word to you, Love your enemies; eulogize them who curse you; do good to them who hate you; and pray for them who threaten you and persecute you; 45 so that you become the sons of your Father in the the heavens: for his sun rises on the evil and on the good; and rains on the just and on the unjust. 46 For whenever you love them who love you, what reward have you? Do not indeed even the customs agents the same? 47 And whenever you salute your brothers only, what do you so superabundantly? Do not indeed even the customs agents thus? 48 So be complete/at shalom, exactly as your Father is in the the heavens is complete/at shalom.
