Ephesians 4:26
כו רִגְזוּ וְאַל–תֶּחֱטָאוּ; (תהילים ד׳ ה׳) אַל תִּשְׁקַע הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ עַל כַּעַסְכֶם,
Ephesians 4:26
4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: (KJV)
Paul writes in Ephesians 4:26 to be Angry and sin not. The Torah does provide guidance on managing anger and avoiding sin. For example, in the book of Leviticus, God gives the Israelites laws to follow, many of which involve controlling one’s behavior and emotions. Leviticus 19:17 states, “You shall not hate your brother in your heart, but you shall reason frankly with your neighbor, lest you incur sin because of him.” This verse, like Ephesians 4:26, underscores the importance of managing anger and avoiding sin. In Numbers, Moses loses his temper and strikes a rock to bring forth water, contrary to God’s command to speak to the rock (Numbers 20:7-12). As a result, Moses is not allowed to enter the Promised Land, illustrating the consequences of letting anger lead to disobedience. Again these examples share the common theme of managing anger and avoiding sin from a Torah perspective. The Torah has not passed away!
