LEV589 Rebuke your fellow for his improper behavior. Constructive criticism brings peace and blessing to the world. When someone wrongs his neighbor, if the victim speaks to the offender about it in private and in soft tones rebukes him for his act, the guilty party will apologize and peace will be restored between them. On the other hand, if the victim remains quiet and does not offer rebuke, he will develop hatred in his heart for the one who wronged him. In time, he will try to take revenge upon him.
