Parshas Hashavua Balak
עריות גזל לשון הרע* Bava Basra 165a אר"י אמר רב רוב בגזל ומיעוט בעריות והכל בלשון הרע The אגדות מהרש"א explains, "There are three types of עבירות. ממון [גזל] 1) גוף [עריות] 2 3 [נשמה [לה"ר רוב בגזל because most lust money (sinful monies) ומיעוט בעריות more than for sinful bodily lusts. והכל בלשון הרע There aren't any people** who can keep their Neshama 100%clean as the day it was given to them. By the time one gives back the Neshama it is dusty (dirty) with אבק לשון הרע" The Netziv (העמק דבר) writes it says ויען בלעם because בלעם cried when he was offered all this כבוד and realized he couldn't get it. Mori V'Rabi Harav Hagaon R. Shlomo Miller Shlita said. that Bilam's תאוות הממון was even greater than his תאוות הכבוד We know this from Bilam's answer to Balak's messengers who told Bilam כי כבד אכבדך מאד ( I will shower you with lots of כבוד) Bilam answered אם יתן - מלא ביתו כסף וזהב "Even if you give me all the money, (which is more valuable to me than כבוד) I can't do anything without Hashem's will.
* דרישה אהע"ז
כ"ה ב'
**The Chofetz Chaim (שמירת הלשון שער התבונה ט"ו) qualifies this statement *** נשמה
