Turn the other cheek, and an eye for an eye. It's as confusing as a
Democratic debate.

Eye for an eye was pre-Jesus. Nothing to do with Christianity.
Everything to do with Jews.
& BTW before you ask, Jesus was not a Jew, he was Palestinian and
spoke a precursor of Arabic. (Aramaic.)

You don't know Jesus/Jack either.
You just believe your government's propaganda.

Giggle. I speak (or at least read) a smidgen of Aramaic. While Aramiac was,
indeed, the vernacular during the era and location of Jesus, it bears little
resemblance to modern Arabic. Even the alphabet is different (Aramaic uses
the Hebrew alphabet both today and at the time of Jesus). The Talmud,
portions of which pre-date Jesus, is written (mostly) in Aramaic. Aramaic is
not too different from Hebrew.

Jesus most certainly was a Jew. He said He was - His mother was Jewish. You
can't get more Jewish than that. Jesus was a Palestinian, to the degree that
He lived in the Roman province of Palaestina. Being a Palestinian, or a
Canadian, has nothing to do with His Jewishness.
