An Eye for an Eye, A Tooth for a Tooth

One of the most common Gentile misunderstandings of Torah: "The Bible
says: "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth".

Our scholars are quite capable of translating and interpreting primitive
languages.


That is one of the horrendous distortions in the translations.

In the one and only correct Bible, the Hebrew Torah, that sentence
comes directly after a discussion of the laws of slavery.

So in your simple mind you think they're related lol



What it means is that if a slave master harms his slave and puts out
his eye he must not only set him free, but pay him the difference of
what he would be worth on the market with and without an eye.

The same goes for a tooth. Even so much as knocking out a tooth of a
slave was reason enough to have to set him or her free plus paying the
difference in compensation.

The Talmud goes further still. In the Talmud we learn that it is
forbidden to sleep in a better bed than one's slave or to eat better
food than one's slave.

And to swing a chicken clockwise on a Sunday



Those laws are intended to lead people in the direction of doing away
with slavery all together by instilling in people the understanding
that slaves are no less human than their masters and deserving of no
less physical conditions. And it worked. Jews were one of the first
Peoples to do away with slavery.

Total bull***. Slavery was unknown in Europe until it was introduced by the
Arab and Jew slavetraders.




Now if only we can get wage slave owners to do the same...

The Hebrew Bible was translated into Greek originally only because the
Greek authorities threatened a massacre if the Rabbis did not do the
translation.

That's bull***. The Greeks were quite capable of translating a simple
language like Hebrew.



There is a reason why the Rabbis said that that was the darkest day in
all history.

The Gentiles were neither spiritually nor morally prepared to be able
to understand what the Bible was about - and their languages reflect
that. This is true to this very day. I have never met a Gentile, no
matter how evolved, who really could grasp Torah.

The torah is the jew cult hate manual.



I can only shake my
head in despair when they quote it, thinking they have understood. All
of their "interpretations" begin with basic misunderstanding and just
get worse from there.

The "gentiles" as you insultingly describe them were around 50,000 years
before anyone ever heard of the nomadic desert dwelling hebrews. But I guess
they weren't moral enough to engage in stoning people to death for fucking,
engaging in human sacrifice or banishing a person from the tribe if he had a
wart on his face or dared to cut off his sideburns haha




Let's not even get into the total misunderstanding of what the coming
of the Messiah means. I could write an encyclopedia about that one.

Why can't the White man find a religion of his own instead of
arrogating the religions of others than he is not at all spiritually
tuned to and has no hope of ever understanding properly???
