00:00:10,900 --> 00:00:13,500
Hello everyone. 
Welcome back to daily gospel 

2
00:00:13,500 --> 00:00:16,600
exegesis. 
We're continuing in The Sermon 

3
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:18,500
on the Mount today. 
So we're looking at Matthew 

4
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:23,600
chapter 5 verses 38 to 42, some 
really interesting teachings 

5
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,900
from Jesus year. 
So if you're new to the podcast,

6
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:29,800
what we do is we read out the 
passage from today's Catholic. 

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Mass and then we'll have a go at
providing an exegesis of the 

8
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,900
passage. 
So what might it have meant in 

9
00:00:36,900 --> 00:00:40,800
its original context? 
So today's passage Matthew 

10
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:49,200
chapter 5 verses 38 to 42 Jesus 
said to his disciples, you have 

11
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,200
learned how it was said an eye 
for eye and tooth for tooth. 

12
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,500
But I say this to you offer the 
wicked man. 

13
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:02,300
No resistance on the contrary if
anyone hits you on the right 

14
00:01:02,300 --> 00:01:05,099
cheek offer him the other as 
well. 

15
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,900
If a man takes you to law and 
would have your tunic, let him 

16
00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:13,900
have your cloak as well and if 
anyone orders you to go one 

17
00:01:13,900 --> 00:01:19,900
mile, go two miles with him give
to anyone who asks and if anyone

18
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:22,700
wants to borrow do not turn 
away. 

19
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,100
So challenging teaching, hear 
from Jesus, or A number of 

20
00:01:28,100 --> 00:01:31,500
challenging teachings will have 
a go at doing an exegesis. 

21
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,800
There are different 
interpretations even among 

22
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,500
Catholics on the best way to 
understand some of these 

23
00:01:36,500 --> 00:01:39,100
commandments. 
So just to recap where in The 

24
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:43,200
Sermon on the Mount and Jesus 
has already by now, he's already

25
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,700
listed a few of these. 
You have heard that it was said,

26
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:51,700
but I say to you his said quite 
a few of those Jesus basic idea 

27
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:55,400
in this section on the sermon on
the It is that the Jews of the 

28
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,100
time particularly the Pharisees,
they knew the external 

29
00:01:58,100 --> 00:02:00,100
requirements of the law very 
well. 

30
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,300
But Jesus now reveals that the 
true way of following the law is

31
00:02:05,300 --> 00:02:09,100
through the interior 
transformation that God wants 

32
00:02:09,100 --> 00:02:11,000
and that was the whole point of 
the laws. 

33
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,600
So he's in this section, where 
he's come to reveal the true 

34
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,600
purpose of some particular laws 
from the Old Testament. 

35
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,000
Now, with each of the things 
he's going to list today, he's 

36
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,700
not saying this law is wrong. 
But he is going to say 

37
00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:27,400
something, like this, the way 
you have heard it taught in 

38
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:32,000
emphasized is only a partial, 
fulfillment, of God's intention 

39
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,900
for that law. 
There is a much deeper and more 

40
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:38,100
meaningful way of doing God's 
will in relation to this law. 

41
00:02:39,100 --> 00:02:43,000
So, in other words, Jesus is 
telling his audience, some who 

42
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,000
are disciples. 
Some possibly not, there's a 

43
00:02:45,008 --> 00:02:48,400
large crowd here, he's telling 
them that fulfilling the 

44
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,600
external requirements of the law
is necessary, but there's more 

45
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,500
to it as well. 
There needs to be an interior. 

46
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:58,200
Transformation. 
So first example verse 38 you 

47
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,700
have learned how it was said. 
So the Jews at the time would 

48
00:03:01,700 --> 00:03:06,400
have learnt God's law from the 
Pharisees and the other rabbis 

49
00:03:06,900 --> 00:03:10,100
as part of their education, as a
Jew, all the Jews knew the law 

50
00:03:10,100 --> 00:03:14,800
very well. 
I for eye and tooth for tooth. 

51
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,200
Now, this quote, this famous 
quote is from Exodus chapter 21,

52
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:25,000
verses 24, and it's often called
The Lex talionis eye for eye, 

53
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,300
and tooth for tooth. 
The first thing to say about 

54
00:03:28,300 --> 00:03:35,000
this law is that in context, it 
was given as a civil law to 

55
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,600
ensure that the Israelites 
didn't inflict more punishment 

56
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,800
than was required. 
So the point of the Lex talionis

57
00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:45,500
in Exodus was to set the maximum
boundaries. 

58
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,200
Of possible. 
Revenge to ensure that things 

59
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,900
were proportional. 
It made sure that someone didn't

60
00:03:52,700 --> 00:03:56,000
do a worse harm in the process 
of doing Revenge when they are 

61
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,000
wronged. 
So, a set the maximum limits for

62
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,700
Revenge. 
Basically, it appears that the 

63
00:04:00,700 --> 00:04:04,400
Jews at the time of Jesus were 
applying this civil law. 

64
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:07,300
Remember this is a civil law, 
that was given though. 

65
00:04:07,300 --> 00:04:10,700
We're using it, to justify their
own personal Vengeance. 

66
00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:15,200
So, in context, The Exodus law 
was supposed to be about Law 

67
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,100
Courts, and the way that they 
They decided which punishments 

68
00:04:18,100 --> 00:04:21,100
were appropriate and it was 
setting the maximum boundaries, 

69
00:04:21,100 --> 00:04:24,300
but in the time of Jesus, they 
use the Lex talionis on an 

70
00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:27,900
individual level to justify 
them, taking their own Revenge, 

71
00:04:27,900 --> 00:04:31,500
individual personal situations. 
So that's one aspect of this. 

72
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:35,500
And we need to keep in mind they
were probably abusing The, Lex 

73
00:04:35,500 --> 00:04:38,000
talionis law in a way that it 
was never meant to be used 

74
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,300
anyway, verse 39, but I say this
to you. 

75
00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:46,200
So Jesus he's the authority of 
interpreter of God's law because

76
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,400
he's gone. 
Himself. 

77
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,200
He's now going to indicate the 
deeper true or meaning of this 

78
00:04:51,300 --> 00:04:53,000
eye for eye and tooth for tooth 
law. 

79
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,000
Offer the wicked man. 
No resistance. 

80
00:04:58,300 --> 00:05:01,100
Now first thing I notice it's 
wicked man. 

81
00:05:01,100 --> 00:05:03,400
So for this verse we're dealing 
with someone who is clearly 

82
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,600
doing you wrong, offer them? 
No resistance. 

83
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,400
Now this is difficult to 
interpret. 

84
00:05:09,500 --> 00:05:14,600
Jesus doesn't is probably not 
advocating, not using self 

85
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,700
defense. 
Jesus probably wants people to 

86
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:18,900
use self defense when they're 
genuinely threatened. 

87
00:05:19,100 --> 00:05:22,800
So he's not talking about that. 
Most likely he is using 

88
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,800
hyperbole here and we know that 
he's using exaggerations and 

89
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,400
hyperboles in other passages in 
Matthew 5 and 6. 

90
00:05:31,300 --> 00:05:34,600
So there's the possibility of 
exaggeration here so that gives 

91
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,600
us two possible interpretations 
of offer. 

92
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,200
The wicked man, no resistance. 
So he could mean, literally 

93
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,200
don't resist, when people are 
doing evil to you, that could 

94
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:48,100
just be the basic meaning for 
his immediate audience, but if 

95
00:05:48,100 --> 00:05:50,900
there's an element of 
exaggeration, perhaps he means 

96
00:05:50,900 --> 00:05:54,300
something like this. 
Don't let your desire for self 

97
00:05:54,300 --> 00:05:57,900
centeredness and revenge, 
dominate your thinking when 

98
00:05:57,900 --> 00:05:59,500
you're dealing with Wicked 
people. 

99
00:06:00,100 --> 00:06:03,500
So either of those could be 
right, I tend to lean towards it

100
00:06:03,500 --> 00:06:06,400
being a literal commandment to 
not offer resistance in 

101
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,900
particular situations because he
goes on to give Three concrete 

102
00:06:09,900 --> 00:06:11,400
examples of what that looks 
like. 

103
00:06:13,700 --> 00:06:16,400
Remember, let's keep in mind, 
Jesus main point here. 

104
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,200
He's telling them that they are 
using the Lex talionis 

105
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,400
incorrectly. 
They are using it for private 

106
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,100
Vengeance. 
When it was only ever meant to 

107
00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:26,500
be used as a civil law. 
So that's the main thing. 

108
00:06:26,500 --> 00:06:30,600
He wants to emphasize at a 
minimum, he saying that the Lex 

109
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,200
talionis law. 
Does not justify taking 

110
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,700
individual Vengeance in personal
situations. 

111
00:06:35,700 --> 00:06:39,600
He certainly saying that he's 
now going to give some examples 

112
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,600
that challenge his disciples to 
resist the temptation to return.

113
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:48,100
One offense for another Jesus 
does not want people, just 

114
00:06:48,100 --> 00:06:50,400
returning one offense for 
another so it's an infinite 

115
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,700
chain of offenses. 
The key theme here in the 

116
00:06:53,700 --> 00:06:56,500
examples that we're going to 
look at is that in each case, 

117
00:06:56,900 --> 00:07:00,000
the person is unjustly 
persecuted by Wicked person. 

118
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,000
So they do genuinely have wrong,
done to them but Jesus point in 

119
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,800
each case is endure it anyway. 
In fact Return their evil with 

120
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,600
kindness. 
So Jesus says in each of the 

121
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,900
cases that I'm going to talk 
about, you want to return evil 

122
00:07:14,900 --> 00:07:17,300
with kindness and he's going to 
tell us why at the end of the 

123
00:07:17,300 --> 00:07:21,000
passage as well. 
So here's the first specific 

124
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,800
example in verse 39 on the 
contrary if anyone hits you on 

125
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,900
the right cheek offer him, the 
other as well. 

126
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,100
So you probably heard people 
talk about what it means to have

127
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,500
a right cheek slaps. 
Oh, and that is a certainly, a 

128
00:07:35,508 --> 00:07:37,600
factor here, a slap on the right
cheek. 

129
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,400
That culture. 
But because everyone was 

130
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,700
right-handed, basically that 
would be a backhanded slap to be

131
00:07:45,700 --> 00:07:47,200
to have a slap on the right 
cheek. 

132
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,900
If you try and sort of visualize
that, if you are slapped on the 

133
00:07:49,907 --> 00:07:54,000
right cheek by someone's right 
hand, that is a backhanded slap,

134
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,500
according to the mishnah, which 
was a body of Jewish, teaching 

135
00:07:57,500 --> 00:08:01,600
at the time, not God's word but 
certainly well respected by the 

136
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,300
Jews. 
To give someone a backhand slap 

137
00:08:04,300 --> 00:08:06,400
was a very insulting thing to 
do. 

138
00:08:06,700 --> 00:08:10,800
And if it happened to a do they 
could demand Double the normal 

139
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,800
Financial penalty compared to a 
normal slap. 

140
00:08:14,300 --> 00:08:17,300
So they had the legal, right? 
According to the mishnah to 

141
00:08:17,300 --> 00:08:22,100
demand exceptional repayments if
they had a backhanded slap 

142
00:08:22,100 --> 00:08:25,700
happen to them, but notice what 
Jesus says here, he says that 

143
00:08:25,700 --> 00:08:30,000
even if you get slapped in the 
worst possible way rather than 

144
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,400
getting financial compensation 
which they were legally entitled

145
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,200
to, and Jesus doesn't deny that 
he says, you need to rather 

146
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:43,299
indoor Either insult by offering
your other cheek, and that's 

147
00:08:43,299 --> 00:08:46,200
pretty radical. 
This person has been unjustly 

148
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,700
attacked basically with an 
unnecessarily hard back and 

149
00:08:49,700 --> 00:08:51,200
slap. 
So, they do have a legal right 

150
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,800
to respond, but Jesus says, 
don't do that instead offer the 

151
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,300
other cheek. 
Now, if there's a hyperbole 

152
00:08:58,300 --> 00:09:01,600
here, again, Jesus might be 
exaggerating and it would be 

153
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,100
something like this. 
There is Merit in suffering 

154
00:09:04,100 --> 00:09:09,000
righteously rather than 
retaliating Next example, verse 

155
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,100
40, if a man takes you to law 
and would have your tunic, let 

156
00:09:13,100 --> 00:09:16,900
him have your cloak as well so 
we need to understand the 

157
00:09:16,900 --> 00:09:18,700
distinction between tunics and 
cloaks. 

158
00:09:18,700 --> 00:09:21,900
So Jewish men wore two 
governments, they had a tunic 

159
00:09:21,900 --> 00:09:25,200
which was an inner garment and a
cloak which was like a larger 

160
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:30,100
heavier outer garment. 
One a person could be sued for 

161
00:09:30,100 --> 00:09:32,100
his tunic as part of the 
repayments. 

162
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:36,600
If if someone has done wrong to 
you, you could sue them to have 

163
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,000
their tunic because it's sort of
considered an unnecessary in a 

164
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,600
garment. 
But you couldn't sue someone for

165
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,500
their coach, because the coat 
was essential for a person to 

166
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:47,500
keep warm. 
It was not, you couldn't ask for

167
00:09:47,500 --> 00:09:50,000
someone's coach because that 
will be depriving them of a 

168
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,500
necessity. 
But notice what Jesus says here,

169
00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:56,000
if a man takes you to law and 
would have your tunic, let him 

170
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,400
have your cloak as well. 
So rather than seeking 

171
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,800
compensation or rather than 
trying to retaliate. 

172
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,800
If someone tries to take your 
tunic Jesus says, don't go that 

173
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,200
path. 
Don't fight it. 

174
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,300
Instead offer your cloak as well
and that was a real situation 

175
00:10:11,300 --> 00:10:12,600
that they would have been faced 
with. 

176
00:10:12,900 --> 00:10:16,200
So Jesus really expects his 
disciples to do that, it would 

177
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,000
appear. 
So it's a theme of righteous 

178
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,100
suffering suffering for doing 
good, and despite unjust 

179
00:10:25,100 --> 00:10:29,800
persecution verse 41. 
If anyone orders you to go one 

180
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,100
mile? 
Now, this is again a real law 

181
00:10:32,100 --> 00:10:35,100
that existed at the time, a 
Roman soldier, could legally 

182
00:10:35,100 --> 00:10:39,200
force, a Jutsu carry, hit the 
Romans equipment for up to one 

183
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,000
mile. 
That was a law that existed at 

184
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,300
the time, and they force the 
Jews to do it. 

185
00:10:43,300 --> 00:10:48,100
They said take my stuff for a 
mile and of course, that's what 

186
00:10:48,300 --> 00:10:51,500
And to Simon the cyrenian who 
helped Jesus carry his cross 

187
00:10:51,500 --> 00:10:53,500
there. 
Basically, in a nap to the Roman

188
00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:55,400
law and said you have to carry 
this cross. 

189
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,600
So here, Jesus says, if anyone 
orders you to do that, go to 

190
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,900
miles. 
So the teaching here, let's 

191
00:11:02,900 --> 00:11:05,600
think about the gravity of it. 
He's telling his Jewish 

192
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,600
disciples to show extreme 
generosity to the Romans, that 

193
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,900
would be shocking. 
Given how much the Romans were 

194
00:11:11,900 --> 00:11:15,800
persecuting them show extreme 
generosity to the Romans. 

195
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,200
Even when you don't feel like it
even when you're being unjust, 

196
00:11:18,300 --> 00:11:24,000
We persecuted verse 42 give to 
anyone who asks so do not 

197
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,100
withhold things. 
Selfishly is the idea of are and

198
00:11:28,100 --> 00:11:31,100
that's fair. 
If anyone wants to borrow do not

199
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,900
turn away. 
So, again, we see this theme of 

200
00:11:33,900 --> 00:11:38,200
giving oneself, even when it 
hurts, give of yourself to other

201
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,400
people. 
Now, of course, there's more to 

202
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,800
this passage and towards the end
here, Jesus is going to so why 

203
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,500
he's given them all these laws 
and particularly in relation to 

204
00:11:48,500 --> 00:11:51,800
what it tells us about. 
God, if we follow these laws, 

205
00:11:52,300 --> 00:11:54,900
what's it going to show to the 
rest of the world about God? 

206
00:11:55,100 --> 00:12:00,600
And so that will continue in 
verses 43 to 48 and that is red 

207
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,600
on Tuesday of week, 11 in 
ordinary time and you might be 

208
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,400
listening to this podcast as 
part of that cycle. 

209
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:12,700
It's also read on the Saturday 
of the first week of Lent So In 

210
00:12:12,700 --> 00:12:14,500
this passage, let's try and 
summarize it. 

211
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:16,100
There are different 
interpretations of how 

212
00:12:16,100 --> 00:12:20,200
literally, Jesus is to be taken.
But it appears that what he's 

213
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:24,200
saying overall is, he wants his 
disciples not to take personal 

214
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,000
Revenge. 
Don't take don't return one 

215
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:33,000
offense for another rather Jesus
says return, evil with kindness 

216
00:12:33,300 --> 00:12:36,300
in your personal life. 
So this is doesn't appear to be 

217
00:12:36,300 --> 00:12:39,300
a command about legal 
proceedings in court. 

218
00:12:39,300 --> 00:12:43,200
It's about what to do in a 
personal Possible Revenge 

219
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,700
situation in the next part of 
the sermon. 

220
00:12:45,700 --> 00:12:49,200
He's going to intensify things 
even further because he's going 

221
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,300
to say love your enemies. 
And so it's well worth looking 

222
00:12:52,300 --> 00:12:57,700
at that particular episode as 
well because of course the 

223
00:12:57,700 --> 00:12:59,900
enemies of the Jews at that time
where the Romans. 

224
00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:02,000
So Jesus is going to get really 
controversial. 

225
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,400
So, let's turn to the catechism.
There's only one paragraph that 

226
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:12,700
makes reference to verses 38 to 
42, and it's paragraph 2443 in 

227
00:13:12,700 --> 00:13:15,000
the section about love for the 
poor. 

228
00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:19,400
It says, God, blesses, those who
come to the aid of the poor and 

229
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,300
rebukes, those who turn away 
from them. 

230
00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:25,400
Quote, give to him, who begs 
from you do not refuse him. 

231
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,500
Who would borrow from you So 
that quote, there is from verse 

232
00:13:29,500 --> 00:13:32,700
42 that we heard today. 
Catholics according to the, 

233
00:13:32,700 --> 00:13:36,900
catechism are required to come 
to the aid of the poor and give 

234
00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:40,400
to those who beg from you do not
refuse him who would borrow from

235
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:41,900
you. 
That is a command for all 

236
00:13:41,900 --> 00:13:45,600
questions in all time. 
So it's a passage that's well 

237
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:50,900
worth studying and thinking 
about a meditating about and 

238
00:13:50,900 --> 00:13:53,100
just as we finish today's 
episode, I want to remind you
