Codicil. I say to you, that whoever becomes angry with his brother for no reason
is guilty before the tribunal
Moses said: You have heard it is said, be kind to your friend, and hate your
enemy.
Codicil. I say to you, love your enemies and bless anyone who curses you and
do good to anyone who hates you, and pray for them who carry you away by
force and persecute you, So that you may become sons and daughters of your
Father who is in heaven, who causes his sun to shine upon the good and upon
the bad, and who pours down his rain upon the just and upon the unjust. If your
forgive men their faults, your Father in heaven will also forgive you. If you do not
forgive men, neither will your Father forgive even your faults become perfect, just
as your Father in heaven is perfect.
Moses said: You have heard that it is said an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a
tooth.
Codicil. I say to you, do not start a fight. Do unto another as you would have
them do to you. This is the Law spoken by the prophets
YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY.
Moses said: you shall not commit adultery
Codicil. I say to you, that whoever looks at a woman with lust, has already
committed adultery with her in his heart.
Moses said: whoever divorces his wife must give her the divorce papers.
Codicil. I say to you, that whoever divorces his wife, except for fornication, causes
her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is separated but not
divorced, commits adultery.
Codicil. There are some eunuchs, who were so born from their mother’s womb;
and there are some eunuchs, who were made eunuchs of men; and there be
eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of God’s sake.
He that is able to receive this let him receive it.
Codicil. The sons of this world marry women, and women are given to men in
marriage. Those who shall enter into the kingdom of God neither take women in
marriage nor are women given in marriage to them. They are like angels; and
they are sons of God, because they are sons of the resurrection
