Full Summary

Achei Yosaif could have tried to get Yosaif the help that he needed by speaking to him with shalom and eventually gaining his trust so he will trust them and go for help. This would have been the smartest thing for the brothers to do. When you view the other person as having the problem then one can just focus on helping them without feelings of hatred. We shouldn't let other people's problems become my problem. Instead we should act b'shalom and try to help them.
