We turn the other cheek,

You know that meant when you get hit make sure you turn your cheek so they have to hit you a certain way and release you according to slave laws back then or they couldn’t hit you in that positon. It does not mean to take things as they come it’s a statement to force your opponent to misstep.

Why don’t you look up the time when the passage was written for context buddy. It’s not factually incorrect it was common practice at the time…

Reminds me of the whole, “well there was a gate in Israel called ‘eye of the needle’, so Matthew 19:23 didn’t actually mean it’s impossible for rich men to enter heaven” or whatever, thing that I’ve recently seen Christian apologists claim. Just made up out of whole cloth.
