Introduction to םייח ץפח רפס
Sefer Chafetz Chayim ערה ןושל ירוסיא תוכלה
Aseen 'א ללכ - םייחה רוקמ
(Gemara Sanhedrin 99b) he enters the realm of apostasy. I will
elaborate on this further on, with G-d's help). And if this subject
is both an old person and a Torah scholar the speaker doubles the
violation of this Aseh.

A9. If someone shamed a Kohain, and the remarks were made in 'א ללכּ
his presence (9), the speaker violates the Aseh of (Vayikrah 21:8)
“and you shall sanctify him (the Kohain),” which commands us to לַע וֹא ויפבּ ערָָה ןוֹשׁל רוּפּס רוּסִּא רַאֹבי הז ללכבּ

A10. If someone speaks Lashon Hara or gossip about one’s older
brother(10) or one’s mother's husband or one’s father's wife, he
also violates the Aseh of (Shemot 20:12) “honor your father and רוּמגּ תמא )א( לע וּלִּפא וֹרבח תוּנגִבּ רפּסל רוּסא .א

Mekor Hachayim this Aseh of honoring one's father and mother and he also invokes הבּרְה לוֹדגּ וֹנוֲֹעו ערָ םֵשׁ איִצוֹמ ללכִבּ אוּה רֵתוֹי וֹרבח

A11. The person who speaks Lashon Hara or Rechilut also violates
the Aseh (11) of (Devarim 6:13) “and you shall be in fear of Hashem שׁוּרפבּ הרָוֹתּה וּתּבָתכֶּשּׁ המ אוּה וּנבַתכֶּשׁ הז ואלּה .ב
