Anger
21 g“You have heard that it was said to those of old, h‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable ito judgment.’ 22But I say to you that jeveryone who is angry with his brother ▼▼Some manuscripts insert without cause
will be liable lto judgment; whoever insults ▼▼Greek says Raca to (a term of abuse)
his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to nthe hell ▼▼Greek Gehenna; also verses 29, 30
of fire. 23 pSo if qyou are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, 24leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. 25 rCome to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison. 26Truly, I say to you, syou will never get out until you have paid the last penny. ▼▼Greek kodrantes, Roman copper coin (Latin quadrans) worth about 1/64 of a denarius (which was a day’s wage for a laborer)
