In Devarim Rabbah, it is noted that even though Achav’s generation worshiped idols, they remarkably emerged victorious in every war due to their avoidance of lashon hara. Conversely, the Yerushalmi (Peah 1) highlights that Dovid’s generation was filled with righteousness, but they experienced defeat in every battle due to their tendency to engage in lashon hara.

Reflecting on this powerful insight, let us take this lesson to heart and make a commitment to refrain from engaging in lashon hara. By doing so, we may never fully comprehend the countless lives we can potentially save through the profound power of our words.
