We all have people that we don't particularly like; and once in a while - move to annoying, to irritating and onto the wide spectrum of hate!  Jesus does a little teaching on handling hate and haters;  the insights he provides - the actions he tells us to take will make a huge difference.  These aren't the final steps, but rather - the first steps in defeating an enemy; which may not be to eliminating their presence but rather in neutralizing their influence.
