The idea of an “eye for an eye” kind of justice is an ancient one, found even in the Law of Moses. And the principle may make intuitive sense: if you hurt me, I get to hurt you back in equal measure. But in the Old Testament at least, this is a less a matter of having the right to revenge than setting a limit on what kind of retribution was permitted. Moreover, as we’ll see, Jesus sets a higher standard of righteousness.
