He who merely raises his hand against his friend with the intention of striking him is called evil. He is condemned for his violence.

("The chief of the people said to Lakish: He who raises his hand against his neighbor, even though he did not strike him, is called a wicked man, as it is said (Shemot 2:1) and says to the wicked man, "Why did you strike your neighbor? Why did you strike? It is not said, but why did you strike? Even though he did not strike him, he is called a wicked man" - Sanhedrin 1:2, and so: "The fourth were called wicked: those who raise their hand against their neighbor to strike him, and yet He did not strike, as it was said, and he said to the wicked, "Why did you strike your neighbor?" And he who has no debt, as it was said, "The wicked borrows and does not repay." And who has courage, as it was said, "The wicked man is bold" - Midrash Yalamdenu (Who will learn the Talmud of Torah - Parashat Korach)
