Jim's rebuke of Huck and the shame he feels for having played the trick, shows that Huck is finally looking at Jim as another human being, not as property. He had been taught blacks weren't people, just property like a donkey, but he now understood, this was a lie.

Huck's response to Jim's rebuke is significant because it demonstrates his growing empathy and understanding of Jim as a human being. It marks a turning point in their relationship, where Huck starts to see Jim as a friend and equals, rather than just property or a means to an end. This moment paves the way for their deep bond to develop throughout the rest of the narrative.
