The whole point of this writing is hoping to wake us up just enough to get our name written into the Lamb's book of life before we die. As we can see Lex Talionis would be a great thing if we had the heart to keep this law, but instead, we are against the leaders that want to keep us safe. We choose to drive them out with more force than God requires, oh but, Satan has his goal in sites too. The One world government will give each of us what we want. The saved will be gone to heaven and the lost will be left to fight for survival staying behind in a world that murders anyone we want too and be misled by the lies of Satan being as their king in person. To me, this is why Jesus said he will correct all paybacks with his perfect need of retaliation.
Psalms 139
9 Oh, that You would slay the wicked, O God!
Depart from me, therefore, you bloodthirsty men.
20 For they speak against You wickedly;
Your enemies take Your name in vain.
21 Do I not hate them, O Lord, who hate You?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred;
I count them my enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me, and know my anxieties;
24 And see if there is any wicked way in me,
And lead me in the way everlasting.
