Leviticus
Jesus came to establish a better law than what was in place.
He would have told Leviticus that anger begets anger and that forgiveness is a better form of law than breaking the law of killing.
It appears that Leviticus was on a power trip when writing some of those laws that clearly show that they are not in any way Christian.
God is a God of Love not Hate.

Re: Leviticus
I cannot speak to the Torah. All writers of wisdom are complex.
