הלכה על דברים 19:11

Do not bring yourself to a light transgression for it will bring you to a more serious one. If one transgressed the injunction “Thou shalt not hate” he ultimately comes to the “spilling of blood (murder),” for it is said, “But if any man hate his neighbor and lie in wait for him and rise up against him and smite him mortally that he die” (Deut. 19:11).¹Aboth 4:2.
