Check important information):1. Dual Ona’ah obligations — The Torah in Parshat Behar presents two distinct prohibitions of Ona’ah (oppression): Ona’as Mamon (monetary) and Ona’as Devarim (verbal).2. The Mishnaic link — The Mishna in Bava Metzia links the two, stating that just as there is a prohibition against overcharging, there is a prohibition against hurtful speech.3. Defining “Bad Advice” — Rashi explains that Ona’as Devarim includes many forms of belittling, such as giving someone advice that is not proper for them.4. Distinction from Lifnei Iver — While giving bad advice also violates Lifnei Iver, Ona’as Devarim focuses on the speaker's intent rather than just the listener's potential loss.5. The Speaker’s Superiority — A central yesod is that Ona’as Devarim reflects the speaker's desire to feel superior by treating another person as if they are worth less.6. Inner Motivation Matters — Unlike many civil laws, this issur depends on the internal path (lefi darko) and selfish pleasure (hana’aso) of the one giving the advice.7. The Value of Man — Just as Ona’as Mamon prohibits misrepresenting the value of an object, Ona’as Devarim prohibits misrepresenting the infinite value of a person created B’tzelem Elokim.8. Beyond Speech Alone — According to the Rishonim, this prohibition can be violated through gestures or any action that demonstrates a person thinks lowly of their fellow.9. Holiness in Civil Law — Torah civil law is not just about preventing anarchy; it is designed to refine our character and build us into a Goy Kadosh.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/wZP_17xoTgpvx2xhNJhTW5ohsoHLRJd9tK_BK6GF0d8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9mMjNh/NTNiYWI4N2E5NGQy/MWE1YjlmYzRmYmQ3/YzdmMi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
