f The more original Biblical reference to retaliation was from
the mythical character Jesus (invented by Constantine at the first council at Nicaea in 325, and modeled after his own «prophet» the Sun God, Mithra, and named Jesus Christos to combine the Celtic God Hesus and the Indian God Krishna, whose Latin name was Christos, into one God) who said «turn your other cheek» (when struck in the face).

Perhaps, though, the biblical
character of
Jesus, rather than being entirely
mythical, was based on one of many Jewish messiah claimants who had followers who euhemerized his life to a greater extent than those of other such claimants, so that in time the stories were so embellished that he became a god in them, but the Tesimonium Flavianum is hardly proof of his existence.
