to buy it to himself for nothing ? Wherefore because of this, murders and
deaths and condemnations come upon them from God. But to those
men who are obedient to God there is one simple and valid law, and I
say that thou shalt not make questions to Christians, this, that whatever
thou hatest should happen to thyself from another, thou shalt not do to
another. Thou dost not wish that any one should look at thy wife in an
evil manner, for her corruption ? do not thou also look at the wife of thy
neighbour with an evil mind. Thou dost not wish that any one should take
from thee thy garment ? do not thou also take the garment of others.
