Hate is Murder
“You Have heard it said”
you have heard it said is not a quote of the Old Testament law. it is rather a point back to the real intent of the Law given by God.
God the Father gave the Law, God the son clarifies the Law.
Jesus points the people back to the heart of the Law.
Murder in biblical times was the same as it is today.
it is not self-defense, it is not in defense of country, it is not manslaughter, it is premeditated taking of a life.
The prohibition of murder happened before the giving of the ten commandments.
We are made in the image of God.
We are prohibited from “playing God” in the lives of others.
Murder is deciding when someones life will end.
What could be a greater act of playing “god” then deciding when life is over.
The root of murder is anger.
“The Judgement” is the court of men.
according to Old Testament Law before a person can be punished for murder a council of men had to be convened.
Jesus says if you hate your brother, under the kingdom you are going to court.
Jesus drills Down on “Murder” In three ways:
1. Do not be angry with your brother without a cause.
2. Don’t call your brother ‘Empty Headed’
The term “Raca!” is an Aramaic insult that means empty headed.
This goes back to purpose.
We don’t know what people are created for and what they are gifted with.
Remember, the Lord Jesus uses the term “brother.
” there is no doubt then that The Lord is referring to fellow disciples.
3. Do not call your brother a fool.
The word fool is in Greek is akin to the word for moron.
mo•ron \ˈmȯr-ˌän\ noun
[irregular from Greek mōros foolish, stupid] 1910
1 usually offensive: a mildly mentally retarded person
2: a very stupid person—mo•ron•ic \mə-ˈrä-nik, mȯ-\ adjective—mo•ron•i•cal•ly \-ni-k(ə-)lē\ adverb—mo•ron•ism \ˈmȯr-ˌä-ˌni-zəm\ noun—mo•ron•i•ty \mə-ˈrä-nə-tē, mȯ-\ noun
do not think you know what God is doing with another.
Don’t say about The Lord or His creation is stupid.
Unity: Keep your eye on the prize
Can I come before God for Mercy when I am unwilling to go extract it or offer it to my brother?
Unity: Stay out of Drama.
where as in verse 24 we are dealing with brothers in Christ.
this time we are dealing with gentiles.
because the kind of financial prison is a gentile invention.
