The Reno Gazette Journal posts Faith Forum on Sundays. A question is answered by clergy from many faiths. Rabbi Beyer provides the Jewish response.
RGJ asked: How Should We Handle Enemies?
Rabbi Beyer says,
Spiritual Opportunities For Growth
In the case of an "enemy," who is unkind or mean, rather than one who physically tries to harm us, we need to shift our perspective. If we meet hate with hate, react with anger, call for punishment, it will return to us. Avoid a "reactive" tongue; avoid a war of self-justification and avoid seeking revenge. Protect yourself and fight, only if necessary to avoid the enemy accruing a hefty "spiritual debt."
We are to help our enemies when they need it, which will ultimately help us become better people. (Exodus 23:5, Bava Metza 32b, Sara Yehudit Schneider, "You Are What You Hate: A Spiritually Productive Approach to Enemies").
Generally, a spiritual path is about ego-transcendence. Thus, our goal would be to try to understand how enemies see the world and why they view it and us the way they do. Each step dissolves another layer. Humility is a sign we successfully passed the test.
Faith Forum appears each Sunday in the Local Life Section of the Reno Gazette Journal. Faith Forum clergy answer a question posed each week and responses in the paper are limited to 150 words. Rabbi Beyer is featured as the "Jewish" response. In February 2014 it was 3 YEARS for Faith Forum column in the RGJ. This interfaith group is now working towards a book which would be an edited collection of these columns. See www.nevadafaithforum.org
