Turn The Other Cheek

A term used in an argument where the opposing side agrees to an insult or insults himself after a while in an effort to downplay the argument.



Turning the Other Cheek
An expression derived from the Bible; meaning, to love your enemies while resisting them non-violently.

It says, I will not seek revenge because I am stronger than that. I will not respond with shame because I have dignity in Jesus; and not in hurting you.

Turning the other cheek is a powerful response, as it may require a great deal of self-control, which is painful to do in some cases (see example).
Example:
I Turn the Other Cheek when my enemies attack or insult me, but now that they're masquerading as me, causing confusion, division, and strife amongst my friends... turning the other cheek has become painfully hard and I feel deeply saddened.


turn the other cheek
Turn the other cheek is a famous phrase taken from the Sermon on the Mount in the Christian New Testament. This passage is viewed as promoting nonresistance, pacifism or nonviolence.

Example:
Jesus- "You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.' But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other cheek. And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you."
