Revenge Is Mine, I Will Repay

Russian Studies in Philosophy 48 (2):8-27 (2009)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

By placing Jesus's commandment not to "resist evil" in its textual and religious context, the author demonstrates that it should not be interpreted in an absolute sense. Christianity does not condemn vengeance as such but makes it a divine prerogative. A critique is presented of Tolstoy's doctrine of nonviolence
