@joseph.yoo: Remember. There were more powerless and marginalized people that listened to Jesus than there were those with power and stature. This was a way to fight back for those who had no means or power to fight back. #turntheothercheek #sermononthemount #matthew #luke #jesus #cupofjoewithjoe #houstondynamo #resist #persist #yourEpiscoPal #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodPriest #YourKoreanFather #YourKoreanPriest

It's funny how so many messages in the bible have a different meaning when you consider the cultural norms of the time it was written. People should UNDERSTAND the bible, not just READ it.

but there's no data to support those cultural concepts. this was made up way later. it was absolutely about submission

How does this fit with the rest of the examples, like going the extra mile? Sincere Q. The other examples seem consistent with humility and service

How do we turn the tables on our oppressor? One idea is to read how the Apostles challenged their oppressors, without being violent. 1. Peter and John were told not to speak in the Name of Jesus.

the very fact that this can interpreted completely differently illustrates why we shouldn't immediately adhere to biblical teachings

I think it's something else entirely. Matthew 5:38-42. It first talks about their old law, and eye for an eye, and later it talks about their cloak and carrying someone's gear.

@Dan McClellan is this true about turning the other cheek and customs around slapping in Jesus’ time?

Can you give an example on how that could be applied in today's society? I understand culturally it would make you equal but I don't know how you would do that now

What do you think "do not resist an evildoer" implies if he's then instructing you to challenge your aggressor? This is rewriting Jesus to fit your comfort, not letting Jesus challenge your world view

this story has a specific context: brothers reconciling. Nothing about any oppressor. Matthew 5:24
