Measure for measure 보복 (마태복음 7:2, 세익스피어)

그림설명: Mount
그림 저작권: Jenny

성경구절

“For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” “너희의 비판하는 그 비판으로 너희가 비판을 받을 것이요 너희의 헤아리는 그 헤아림으로 너희가 헤아림을 받을 것이니라.”

세익스피어 작품의 제목 중에 “Measure for measure”라는 idiom이 있습니다. 이것은 Beatitudes산에서 그의 제자들에게 하신 유명한 말씀에서 유래 되었습니다. 그의 가르침 중에 가장 중요한 것으로, 예수님께서는 다른 사람을 판단하지 말라고 가르치십니다. 판단하게 되면 판단한 사람도 그가 한 방법대로 판단받게 될 것입니다.
