Jesus continues to teach the crowd to love their enemies. ## To him who strikes you ## "If anyone hits you" ## on the one cheek ## "on one side of your face" ## offer him also the other ## This can be translated as "turn your face so that he can hit the other side, too." ## do not withhold ## "do not prevent him from taking" ## Give to everyone who asks you ## This can be translated as "If anyone asks you for something, give it to him." ## do not ask him ## "do not require him" or "do not demand"
