Matthew:5:43-48
orthjbc@Matthew:5:43 @ You have heard that it was said, V'AHAVTAH L'REI'ACHAH (note:)"You shall love your neighbor," VAYIKRA strkjv@19:18(:note) and you shall hate your oyev enemy.`
orthjbc@Matthew:5:44 @ But I say to you, Love your enemies, and offer tefillos (note:)prayers(:note) for the ones bringing redifah persecution upon you.
orthjbc@Matthew:5:45 @ Do this so that you may become banim of your Av sh'baShomayim, for his shemesh (note:)sun(:note) he makes to rise on the ra'im evil ones and the tovim good ones, and he sends his geshem rain upon the tzaddikim righteous ones and the resha'im unrighteous ones.
orthjbc@Matthew:5:46 @ For if you have ahavah (note:)love(:note) for the ones who have ahavah for you, what sachar* reward do you have? Even the mochesim tax-collectors do that, don't they?
orthjbc@Matthew:5:47 @ And if you give "shalom" greetings only to your achim, what extraordinary thing are you doing? Don't even the Goyim do the same?
orthjbc@Matthew:5:48 @ Therefore, be shlemim (note:)complete(:note), even as is your Av sh'baShomayim."
