Day 26 – About Children
?

It is forbidden to speak loshon hora about children.? While most people understand that “kids are kids” and the Torah does not hold children responsible for their actions, if one speaks about a child in a manner that either the speaker or listener sees as derogatory, then the laws of shmiras haloshon have been violated.
?
It is also forbidden to say or write something about a child that potentially could prove harmful to him.
?
A teacher who is prepared to enter a negative comment on a student’s record should pause to contemplate the effect that entry might have on the student’s future educational and employment opportunities.
?
Likewise, teachers should exercise caution and fairness when conveying their feelings concerning a student to his teacher for the coming year.
?

Pure and Untainted
?
The Talmud states:
?
Reish Lakish said in the name of R’ Yehudah Nesiah: “The world is sustained only in the merit of the breath [of? Torah study] of school children.”
Said R’ Pappa to Abaye: “And what is with yours and mine [i.e. our Torah study]?”
Abaye replied: “There is no comparison between breath that is tainted by sin and breath that is free of sin” (Shabbos 119b).
?
If the Sages were, to their minds, guilty of forbidden speech, it could only have been an inadvertent and rare occurrence. Yet they declared their words of Divine service to be tainted because of this. How much more so is this true of one who habitually speaks the forbidden — especially loshon hora, which causes ill will and strife among Jews.

What Brings Our Comrade Pain
?
Rabbi Moshe Leib of Sassov declared to his disciples: "I learned how we might truly love our neighbor from a conversation between two villagers which I overheard:
"The first said: 'Tell me, friend Ivan, do you love me?'
"The second: 'I love you deeply.'
"The first: Do you know, my friend, what gives me pain?'
"The second: 'How can I, pray, know what give you pain?'
"The first: 'If you do not know what gives me pain, how can you say that you love me?'
?
"Understand, then, my sons," continued the Sassover: "to love, truly to love, means to know what brings pain to your comrade."

The More Deserving
?
Said the Belzer: "Only the man of humility who believes that the other person is more deserving than he, can truly fulfill the commandment: 'Thou shall love your neighbor as thyself' (Leviticus 19:18). The man of humility will feel unable to disregard his comrade's request when he is in a position to grant it."?
The rabbi finds a suggestion of this idea in the fact that the next letters in the Hebrew alphabet following ??? are ???.

SEFER CHOFETZ CHAIM
?
Day 24 – Public Knowledge But Harmful
?
We have seen that it is forbidden to speak in a derogatory manner even if the information being conveyed was already known to the listener.? This is because the act of speaking negatively is inherently wrong.
?
Conversely, it stands to reason that a non-derogatory but potentially harmful statement can be made in the presence of anyone who is already aware of the information, unless the speaker emphasizes some point that the listener may not have realized previously.? This is because the statement will not be cause for any harm which otherwise would not have come about.
?
Rambam takes this a step further, stating that if a potentially harmful statement was made in the presence of three people, the three are permitted to relate the information in conversation with others.? This is because each of the three can assume that the other two will probably make the information public anyway.? However, this would not be permissible if either:
?
One of the three is known to be discreet or especially careful regarding the laws of forbidden speech, or
The person’s intent in relating the information is to publicize the matter yet further.
?
According to the Chofetz Chaim, Rambam permits any of the three to repeat the information even if it is derogatory.
?
The Chofetz Chaim fails to find justification for such leniency; furthermore, he discourages reliance on Rambam’s opinion with regard to loshon hora spoken in the presence of three, as most other commentators seem to disagree with his ruling.? Thus, one should never relate derogatory information, even when it was related to three or more listeners.
?
?
?

SEFER SHMIRAS HALOSHON
?
The Metzora’s Cry
?
Zohar (Parashas Metzora) states:
The prayer of one who speaks loshon hora will not come before the Holy One, Blessed is He, for a ruach tamei (impure spirit) hovers over it. When he repents, and [sincerely] accepts upon himself the [various aspects of] repentance, then what is written of him? “On the day of his purification, he shall be brought before the Kohen” (Vayikra 14:2).1
?
The above lends added clarity to the Torah’s instruction that the metzora (one who is afflicted with tzaraas for having spoken loshon hara2) call out to those who pass by, “[I am] contaminated, contaminated!” (ibid.13:45) so that they will pray for him. Since his own prayers will not be accepted Above, the Torah therefore advises him to request that others pray on his behalf.
?
Scripture declares: “Take note of God’s work! For who can straighten what he has twisted?” (Koheles?7:13). We can interpret this as follows: Take note of God’s work! Ponder well the Heavenly fruits of a Jew’s prayer on this earth: prayer can radiate spiritual light and create exalted edifices in the Upper Worlds. Ensure, then, that your prayers be uttered with proper readiness, and by a mouth that is pure and unsullied by sin. For who can straighten what he has twisted? If one’s prayer will be lacking, then its spiritual products in the Upper Worlds will be lacking as well. This will bring eternal distress to one’s soul, for these are not earthly structures, which can be repaired or improved by a second craftsman.
?
As Hillel declared: “If I am not for myself, who will be for me?” (Avos?1:14). Only the person himself has the power to correct his past mistakes — through proper repentance and a firm resolve to live by the laws of proper speech.
?
?

1. Homiletically, this means that having repented and achieved purification, the metzora is? assured that his prayers will, once again, gain acceptance Above.
2. Contrary to its common translation, tzaraas is not leprosy or some other bodily disease, but the physical manifestation of spiritual malady. As R’ Samson Raphael Hirsch demonstrates, if tzaraas were some biological disorder and the metzora’s confinement were to prevent contagion, then some of its related laws are inexplicable. For example, if the symptoms of tzaraas are found on a newlywed during the festive week following marriage, the Kohen does not pronounce the person tamei (impure) so as not to interfere with the festivities. Also, the Torah states that if one’s entire body is covered with tzaraas, he is tahor (pure), but if one spot on his body heals, then he is tamei

The Bratslaver on Love
?
1. "When there is no love among men, there is slander, mockery and false accusation.
2. Terror and ruin come through hate.
3. The man whom you strengthen in his service to God will love you. The way to strengthen him is to love him.
4. If you be ware of petty quarrels and unfounded dislikes, even influential persons will be willing to entrust you with the problems of arbitration.
5. He who does not swear falsely will not transgress the prohibition against revenge.
6. God is present whenever a treaty of peace is signed.
7. When the sagesof a generation meet in amity at frequent intervals, their unanimous decisions will endure, for God Himself becomes the Chief Justice."

Love is the Chief Thing
?
The Besht was asked: "What is the chief point in service to the Lord, if it be true, as you teach, that fasting and self-chastisement are sinful?"
?
The Besht answered: "The main thing is to encompass onself in the love of God, the love of Israel , and the love of Torah. A man may attain this if he secures enough nourishment to preseve his health, and if he makes use of his strength to battle against evil inclinations."
