GEN1565 A person should try to do all he can to prevent quarrels between others.   Rashi explains that since his brothers were ashamed, Yosef was worried that they might quarrel on the journey back to Canaan.   One might say to another; ‘You are at fault for selling Yosef; you spoke loshon hora about him and caused us to hate him.”  The verse teaches us another aspect of Yosef’s chesed.   We have seen how he appeased his brothers (see verse 45:5).   Now we see that not only did he do everything he could to prevent his brothers from quarreling in his presence, but he even wanted to prevent their quarreling when they were far away.   The good deeds of the righteous are complete.   (Daas Torah, vol. 1, p 261).   PLYN 122-3
