[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 6143874, member: 24302"] Jesus said if a man compels you to walk with him one mile then walk with him two. What's that about? Rome had a law throughout the empire. A Roman soldier could point to any man and that man was required to stop what he was doing and take the soldier's pack and carry it a mile. The Jews, who believed they were above this and it made them angry, were being told by Jesus to not only submit to the Romans' authority but to do it cheerfully. He was definitely not an insurrectionist. [/QUOTE]
