Sort of. The point is that as far as God is concerned, sin is sin. From a human perspective, insulting your brother is nowhere near as bad as killing him, but to God, both are sins.

This is the point Jesus was making. From the NIV:

"...anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell."

In danger of Hell's fire, just the same as if you killed someone. Got it?

I knew you did.

That's what the book says.

Oh?

Since when?

Jesus seemed to 'insult' the Pharisees quite regularly.

Does HE get a pass that I don't?
