Why Does Jesus Say Not to Swear Oaths?
BibleProject
Swearing Oaths and Verbal Manipulation
Swearing oaths involves invoking something or someone else, typically God, to add weight and significance to one's words, aiming to manipulate and impress others to achieve personal goals. This manipulative tactic intends to override the judgment of others and control them for personal gain. Jesus criticizes this as a form of evil, emphasizing that it deviates from truthfulness and seeks to influence the thoughts and decisions of others for one's benefit.
