Luke 6:29 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:29

And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek
The right cheek,

offer also the other;
the left cheek, by turning it to him, that he may smite that likewise, if he thinks fit: by which proverbial expression, Christ teaches patience in bearing injuries and affronts, and not to seek private revenge; but rather, suffer more, than indulge such a temper; and for the same purpose is what follows urged:

and him that taketh away thy cloak, forbid not to take thy coat also:
the phrase is inverted in Matthew;(See Gill on :)(See Gill on :)
