Love or Law

I have been thinking. I know that's scary. Lol. I have been thinking about the passage where jesus tells the crowd that if anyone forces you to go one mile with him then go two.

I have heard that this passage is talking about the roman soldiers. By law they could ask anyone to carry their things for one mile. They were not suppose to force them to go any farther. So in a sense Jesus was asking them to break the law for the sake of love.

So my question is an ethical question. Do you take food if loved ones are starving? Hmmm let me hear what you think.
