VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Dinah|DATE|1358530163|CONTENT|It is true that ‘An eye for an eye’ occurs several times in the Old Testament, but Christians will tell you that Jesus refuted it:
‘You have heard that it was said, &quot;An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth&quot;. But I say to you, do not resist an evildoer. If anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also’. (Matthew 5:38–39)

However, like many of Jesus’s teachings it has more often than not been ignored by his followers.
