Justice, truth, and peace

Rabbi Simeon ben Gamaliel taught: "The world rests on three things: justice, truth, and peace" (Avot 1:18). Justice ("din" corresponding to the Biblical "mishpat") being God's must be vindicated, whether the object be of great or small value (Sanh. 8a). "Let justice pierce the mountain" is the characteristic maxim attributed to Moses (Sanh. 6b). Stealing and oppression, even if only in holding back overnight the hired man's earnings, are forbidden.

Falsehood, flattery, perjury and false swearing are also forbidden. The reputation of a fellow man is sacred (Ex. 21:1). Tale-bearing and unkind insinuations are proscribed, as is hatred of one's brother in one's heart (Lev. 19:17). A revengeful, relentless disposition is unethical; reverence for old age is inculcated; justice shall be done; right weight and just measure are demanded; poverty and riches shall not be regarded by the judge (Lev. 19:15, 18, 32, 36; Ex. 23:3).

Shalom ("peace"), is one of the underlying principles of the Torah, as "her ways are pleasant ways and all her paths are shalom ('peace')."Proverbs 3:17 The Talmud explains, "The entire Torah is for the sake of the ways of shalom". Maimonides comments in his Mishneh Torah: "Great is peace, as the whole Torah was given in order to promote peace in the world, as it is stated, 'Her ways are pleasant ways and all her paths are peace.'"

I've removed the Facebook material: in general, anything that hasn't explicitly been posted with an accompanying Creative Commons CC-by-SA license can't be copied into Wikipedia, and in addition, Wikipedia isn't a soapbox for anyone's political views. Please provide sources for the bio, and please review WP:BLP and specifically WP:BLP1E. WHile the person has received coverage, I'm not convinced that they pass the BLP1E bar.

After reviewing again, I find that the article was in violation of Wikipedia's requirements for biographies of living persons and have deleted it. Please remember that biographies containing controversial or potentially defamatory material must be appropriately and thoroughly sourced. Acroterion (talk) 21:59, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
