Galatians 6:7-8
ז אַל תִּטְעוּ, בֵּאלֹהִים אֵין לְהָתֵל; כִּי מַה שֶּׁאָדָם זוֹרֵעַ, אֶת זֹאת גַּם יִקְצֹר. ח מִי שֶׁזּוֹרֵעַ בִּשְׂדֵה בְּשָׂרוֹ, מִן הַבָּשָׂר יִקְצֹר כִּלָּיוֹן. אֲבָל הַזּוֹרֵעַ בִּשְׂדֵה הָרוּחַ, מִן הָרוּחַ יִקְצֹר חַיֵּי עוֹלָם.
Paul writes, be not deceived; man will reap what he sows (Galatians 6:7-8). Note that there are several parallels in the Tanakh that align with this concept. For example, Job 4:8 “As I have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap the same.” Proverbs 22:8 “Whoever sows injustice will reap calamity, and the rod of his fury will fail.” Hosea 8:7 “For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.” These verses emphasize the principle of reaping what one sows, similar to the message in Galatians 6:7-8. In Exodus 34:7 the Lord God describes Himself as “keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.” This passage highlights the consequences of sin. This is how Paul taught Torah.
