Retaliation
38h“You have heard that it was said, y‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39But I say to you, zDo not resist the one who is evil. But aif anyone bslaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40And zif anyone would sue you and take your tunic,8 let him have your cloak as well.
