The Bible doesn't answer every question nor address every possible offense. Many passages are ambiguous and others require thinking through subtle implications before they can be fully understood. Many laws don't specify the details of legal procedure, leaving them up to circumstances or local ordinance.

The Bible was written for adults able to make logical connections, not children who need everything spelled out. The law concerning "an eye for an eye" in Exodus 21:18-25 is a good example. In context, it was never about vengeance, but about restitution. #mishpatim #torah
