It is frequently associated with wickedness and is condemned in both the Old and New Testaments. The Bible provides numerous examples and teachings regarding violence, illustrating its destructive nature and the divine call for peace and justice.<br><br><b>Old Testament Context</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, violence is often linked with the corruption and moral decay of humanity. <a href="/genesis/6-11.htm">Genesis 6:11-13</a> describes the earth as being "filled with violence" before the flood, prompting God's decision to cleanse the world through this cataclysmic event: "Now the earth was corrupt in the sight of God, and full of violence. God looked upon the earth and saw that it was corrupt; for all living creatures on the earth had corrupted their ways" (<a href="/genesis/6-11.htm">Genesis 6:11-12</a>).<br><br>The Psalms frequently contrast the ways of the violent with the righteous. <a href="/psalms/11-5.htm">Psalm 11:5</a> states, "The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked; His soul hates the lover of violence" . This verse underscores God's disdain for violent behavior and His commitment to justice.<br><br>The prophets also speak against violence, often in the context of social injustice and oppression. For example, in <a href="/ezekiel/7-23.htm">Ezekiel 7:23</a>, God commands, "Forge the chain, for the land is full of crimes of bloodshed, and the city is full of violence" . Here, violence is seen as a symptom of a society that has turned away from God's laws.<br><br><b>New Testament Context</b><br><br>In the New Testament, Jesus Christ's teachings emphasize peace and non-violence. During the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus instructs His followers to turn the other cheek and love their enemies (<a href="/matthew/5-38.htm">Matthew 5:38-44</a>). This radical call to non-violence and love stands in stark contrast to the violent tendencies of the world.<br><br>The apostle Paul also addresses violence in his epistles. In <a href="/romans/12-17.htm">Romans 12:17-19</a>, he writes, "Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Carefully consider what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone. Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God&#8217;s wrath. For it is written: 'Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord'" . Paul encourages believers to resist the urge for violent retribution, trusting in God's ultimate justice.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>From a theological perspective, violence is often seen as a manifestation of sin and human rebellion against God's order. It disrupts the peace and harmony that God intends for His creation. The Bible consistently calls believers to pursue peace, justice, and reconciliation, reflecting God's character and His kingdom values.<br><br>The eschatological vision in the book of Revelation also points to a future where violence is eradicated. <a href="/revelation/21-4.htm">Revelation 21:4</a> promises a new creation where "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the former things have passed away" . This vision offers hope for a world free from violence, restored to God's original intent.<br><br><b>Practical Application</b><br><br>For Christians, the biblical teachings on violence call for a commitment to peace and justice in personal conduct and societal engagement. Believers are encouraged to be peacemakers, as Jesus declared, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God" (<a href="/matthew/5-9.htm">Matthew 5:9</a>). This involves actively working to resolve conflicts, advocating for the oppressed, and embodying Christ's love in a world often marked by violence.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

Difficulty is offered only by the very obscure passage <a href="/matthew/11-12.htm">Matthew 11:12</a> parallel <a href="/luke/16-16.htm">Luke 16:16</a>. Both Matthew and Luke contain the verb biazetai, but this form maybe either a middle, "presses violently," "storms," or a passive, "is forced." Matthew, in addition, contains the adjective biastai, but whether this is a term of praise, "heroic enthusiasts," or of blame, "hot-headed revolutionaries," is again a problem. Nor can it be determined whether the words "from the days of John the Baptist until now" are meant to include or exclude the work of the Baptist himself. The difference in wording in Matthew and Luke further complicates the problem, and, in consequence, scholars are widely at variance as to the proper interpretation. "The Baptist has fanned a new Messianic storm of ill-advised insurrection," "the Pharisees have shamefully used forcible suppression of God's teachers," "the Kingdom of God comes like a storm and is received by those who have used drastic self-discipline," are instances of the differing explanations proposed.<br><br>Burton Scott Easton<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/973.htm"><span class="l">973. biastes -- a <b>violent</b> man</span></a> <br><b>...</b> a <b>violent</b> man.
