Heard in shul this morning:

???? ????? ?? ????? ??? ??? ???? ???. The second half of the posuk is clearly a requisite of how to perform this mitzvah. There are two major patterns for rebuke. First is the pronouncing the offender as a ??? ?????, which includes all those features of how to deal with a violator, labeling, consequences, etc. The second is using the incident as a teaching opportunity, to show the person what the transgression was and how to protect from repeating the ?????. Considering these two directions, it seems the Torah is commanding us to fulfill the mitzvah of ????? without the focus on the ???, but rather on the education moment. This is revealing about how we set rules and consequences.
