I came to cast fire on the earth, and would that it were already kindled! I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how great is my distress until it is accomplished! Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three. They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.
For some mysterious reason some people don't realize that to Jesus, like any first century religious Jew, the nations were the enemy.
"I have not come to bring peace but a sword."
"Take from my hand this cup of fiery wind and make all the nations to whom I send you drink it. When they have drunk it they will vomit and go mad; such is the sword that I am sending among them."
"from his mouth there went a sharp sword with which to smite the nations."
"Take this cup of wine and drink it. This is a cup of my blood, the blood of the covenant."
"Just art thou in these thy judgments, thou Holy One who art and wast; for they shed the blood of thy people and of thy prophets and thou hast given them blood to drink."
