Not many vallied explainations so far. The bible says both of course. So it's not really a question of just saying which is right. It's knowing why the other is wrong. I'd like an answer to that if anybody knows.

Under the mosaic Covenant they practiced an eye for on eye, we are under Grace so we forgive those so that we will be forgiven.

"eye for an eye" refers to how a government is to achieve justice. "turn the other cheek" refers to how individuals are to relate to each other.
