The gemora seems full of contradictions. Tonite I leaned that one should not figtht against Evil Men
Sanhedrin (110a)With regard to the verse: “And Moses arose and went to Dathan and Abiram” (Numbers 16:25), Reish Lakish says: From here we derive that one may not perpetuate a dispute, as Rav says: Anyone who perpetuates a dispute violates a prohibition, as it is stated: “And he will not be like Korah and his assembly, as the Lord spoke by the hand of Moses to him” (Numbers 17:5). Even the aggrieved party must seek to end the dispute. Dathan and Abiram accused Moses and by right should have initiated the reconciliation. Nevertheless, Moses was not insistent on this; he went to them.
However The Mishna Berura and many others say that one should protest against evil doers and hate them until they are defeated and destroyed
He warned the assembly, “Move back from the tents of these wicked men! Do not touch anything belonging to them, or you will be swept away because of all their sins"
ReplyDeleteThe next verse actually shows what Moshe was doing
And he is also acting on prophecy, not his own
Instincts
He says that he is carrying out Hashem's Will.
