Exegesis from the year 2020 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: 1.0, Kwame Nkrumah University, language: English, abstract: This short article is a hermeneutical analysis of Mt 5.22 in which Jesus tells his listeners during the famous sermon on the mount that “whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of hell fire.” If this was the only use of the appellation “fool” one can be excused of justifying it.

There is a further reason for the opprobrium, to show that in any infraction of the law it is not the infraction per se that matters but the motive behind it.
