Romans 12:14
יד בָּרְכוּ אֶת רוֹדְפֵיכֶם, בָּרְכוּ וְאַל תְּקַלְּלוּ.
Romans 12:14
12:14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. (NASB)
Paul teaches us in Romans 12:14 to bless those who persecute you. There is a parallel in the Torah to this concept. One such parallel can be found in Exodus 23:4-5, where it instructs to help your enemy’s animal if it is in trouble. This passage emphasizes the importance of showing kindness even to those who may be considered enemies. “If you see the donkey of someone who hates you fallen down under its load, do not leave it there; be sure you help them with it.” This Torah passage emphasizes the importance of showing kindness and helping even those who may be considered enemies, similar to the teaching in Romans 12:14. This is how Paul taught Torah, the Torah has not passed away!
