I believe the difference between justice and revenge is that justice is fairness being sought on a situation, but revenge is sought by emotions of inflicting harm or retaliating against someone.
You are welcome, Phyllis. Thank you!!
Justice is more about restoring balance and righting wrongs and revenge is a personal vendetta based on anger or hurt.

Great question Phyllis. Sounds (looks) like we got some lawyers in the LS community.
Yes, Lee some very smart ones at that! Thanks for your comment!
Justice is restoring peace, satisfaction, and exposing the real thruth, fighting for clearance.
Revenge is bitterness and willingness to feed back pain, affliction and torture for an act done.
Well said, Precious! Thanks for your comment and for your participation!
Justice is punishing the guilty person while revenge is return evil to evil.
Yes, you are absolutely correct! Thanks for your comment and participation!
Justice seeks fairness, mortality, and accountability while revenge seeks personal satisfaction such as anger 🤬
Great answer and thanks for your participation!
The truth is that, there is no justification in revenge.
Thank you, Hillary for your comment and for your participation!
Justice is a desire to see those who made poor choices get punished.
Revenge is wanting to dole out the punishment yourself, in the name of justice.
They are kind of the same, but also different, because justice takes time and consideration, while revenge is short-lived and only seeks to gratify the one seeking it.
Excellent, Kathryn! Thank you so much for your comment and for your participation!
Justice seeks to right a wrong through the rule of law. While revenge is a personal vendetta against another person.

Yes, Douglas! Thanks for your comment and for your participation!
Revenge is done out of anger while justice is done through the guidelines of law and order
Justice is I believe when, somebody commmits a crime or commits a crime such as rape/ murder, instead of you or someone else taking the attempt to catch the criminal and take matters into their own hands the justice sytstem is supposed to do so, but while that happens justice dosnt always get served for everybody, so then their is Revenge of course, this sounds bad and it is but revenge comes from a more personal view like instead of having the courts or police/ justice system take care of these matters/ somebody or yourself will get revenge on the perpertrator that commited the crime itself, like for example one time my so called friends stole some property of mine, instead of handling the right way, I went and got into some really bad fights with them which ended up in revenge on them!
