"Why did Jesus say, 'If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other also' in Matthew 5:39?"
In Matthew 5:39, Jesus says, "But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other also."
Does this verse simply mean we should endure suffering without response? Or is there a deeper meaning behind Jesus’ teaching? How should we understand this in the context of His message about love, justice, and humility?
