An Eye For An Eye Makes The Whole World Blind Meaning

If everyone
took revenge, there would be no one left.  Consider theperson who loses his house to bank
foreclosure.  You've heard the tale. He goes on a shooting spree and destroys the bank, or blows
up thebank, either way symbolically taking the bank's "house" as they tookhis.  Yet he
does not benefit from this, and neither does his family. It only creates more suffering for
everyone.
