This is about litigation, about going to law against a neighbour. We have come out of the king’s court now.
How often this happens with misunderstandings! We think somebody has offended, we think, and we have got the facts wrong. Our confidence that we are right may even lead us to betray another’s secrets in the hope of getting some kudos, but the whole thing backfires when we are shown to have ignored some vital factor. If it is a matter of being vindicated, then we should not vindicate ourselves, but let the truth come out afterwards in God’s good time.
