This story from the Gemara tells the story of the reason for the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 C.E.

But there is so much more it has to teach us about who we are and how we react to slights and embarrassments. It seems like a negative story on the surface. Underneath it demands we find ourselves in each of the characters and ask the question about how I might react differently.

Jesus taught us all about the right way to respond. Choose love.
