The Stories We Live By: The New Tongue lesson offers students an opportunity to understand the importance of the way we speak to others and the ways our words can hug or hurt others. In the story, Shmuel Ha-Nagid is insulted by a local merchant. Instead of treating the merchant harshly, he treats him with kindness and mitigates the anger the merchant feels for him.
