"A man who lacks judgment derides his neighbor, but a man of understanding holds his tongue." (Proverbs 11:12)
Do you remember the old saying, "If you can't say something good about someone, don't day anything at all"? That saying probably evolved from this Proverb. Running down the reputation of your neighbor is a foolish thing to do, and it usually involves your judging that neighbor. Most of us think we are good at judging others, even though we are told by the LORD not to do so. In truth we are pretty poor judges of our fellow man because we operate with imperfect and incomplete knowledge. So, it is better to hold your tongue and say nothing. The Lord knows completely and will judge rightly. He doesn’t need our two cents worth.
