Chapter 5 (Continued)

You have heard that it was said,
'Love your neighbor
and hate your enemy.'
But I tell you:
Love your enemies
and pray for those
who persecute you,
that you may be
sons of your Father
in heaven.
He causes his sun to rise
on the evil
and the good,
and sends rain
on the righteous
and on the unrighteous.
If you love those who love you
what reward will you get?
Are not even the tax collectors doing that?
And if you greet
only your brothers,
what are you doing more than others?
Do not even pagans do that?

Be perfect, therefore
even as
your
Heavenly
Father
is
perfect.

5:38-48
