an eye for an eye

oko za oko

There was the same mission to conquer land with gold replacing milk and honey, a wagon-train exodus, a plethora of heroes with a policy of taking an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Above all, God was on their side. This Old Testament of the West has been up-dated.

Richard took her to a friend’s party and afterwards, when they were driving home, he said, You know what’s happened, don’t you? It’s been killed by that old mad woman. An eye for an eye. A cat for a cat.

His determination and stubbornest to carry out the bond is also regarded as immoral. However, in the Old Testament, it states an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
