We will analyze the texts related to the text of Matthew 5:38 2 , this text is based on the set of texts described in 3 and for that we must understand some detailed principles.
Moses was born approximately the 15th century BC 5 , the law described already existed as a rule in Egypt 6 , which was based on the Hammurabi Codes 8 approximately in the 17th century BC
The Hammurabi code was known to all Semitic peoples in the 15th century BC. Even the Hammurabi code was based on some previous laws of the Babylonian region, such as: Laws of Ur-Nammu, king of Ur (ca. 2050 BC), Laws of Eshnunna (ca. 1930 BC), codex of Lipit-Ishtar of Isin (ca. 1870 BC).
To analyze some positions of the Scriptures we will analyze some texts, in parallel with the Bible and the Code of Hammurabi.
In code 196, and 200 9 , we find the parallel between eye and tooth. The textual organization demonstrates a style of knowledge of the previous law in addition to the later one, primarily because the mosaic systems did not analyze in short the literal idea of the eye but of the condition of the pertinent idea in which the term "eye for an eye" refers, hence the norm it is not based on literal functions, but on ideas applied in a generalized way.
Logically, it is a very analytical factor, to understand that an idea launched almost 200 years before, is disseminated in the culture of the Semitic region, and adapted to the cultural situation of the people.
We must understand here that in Scripture he mentions that God works with the individual in what he can understand, and not in what is impossible to understand 10 .
When we read the text contained in 11, we see "it separated the waters that were under the firmament from those that were above the firmament " 11 , here it is citing that " waters ... that were above the firmament " 11 is related to the blue sky , now we know that the sky is blue because of oxygen and not water, and the term " waters " means large expanses of water, or oceans, and since the idea did not involve rain since the water came from the earth 12 . This idea of " waters " 11 came from previous cultures and spread as knowledge to the Semitic peoples.
Should God therefore have a technological school to teach the Hebrews in the desert, about the relative atomic and chemical details, the refractions of light, and the changes in the energy level of the electrons, so that they would write the Pentateuch? Even so, there would still be a lack of more technical explanations to really inform how creation occurs, imagine that the Bible taught all the scientific workings of creation, to then tell the story. We would possibly die before we had enough knowledge to understand creation history with understanding.
Therefore, God uses what is common to the people so that they partially understand what is being said 13 . We must understand that the use of momentary rules can violate some permanent ones. Note that the law contained in 3 violates the ten commandments contained in 14 , so those in 14 are more permanent than those in 3, since 3 summarizes the temporary idea that fell in 15, so the hardness of heart fell to the laws of Hamurabi common to the people of the time, but it should not be so if the people could endure 10 .
Continuing in the comparative system, and already determining that the bearable system differs from the perfect system, notably the bearable system is based on the known, until the perfect one can be understood 13 .
In the bearable system we find, that the code 209 16 is similar to that of Exodus 21:22, regarding the pregnant woman, in the order of the facts with each other.
We conclude that the Scriptures use what the people are able to understand and accept, and with that they use common knowledge, without mentioning the origins of such knowledge, as we do here. The style we currently use in analytical studies is not what God or Scripture does, since the primary meaning is not theoretical scientific knowledge, but the practical system for salvation.
Since the Scriptures seek to save for an eternal life, soon the complete theoretical system will be studied in the time that determines eternity.
