Whoever learns from someone else a single chapter, a single law, a single verse, a single word, even a single letter, must treat him with honor, for so we find in the case of David, King of Israel, who learned only two things from Ahitophel, yet he called him his teacher, his guide, and his close friend, for so it says, “But it is you, my equal, my guide, my close friend.” The following inference can be derived: If David, King of Israel, who learned only two things from Ahitophel, called him his teacher, guide and close friend, how much more must one who learns from someone else a chapter, a law, a verse, a word or even a single letter, treat him with honor! And honor is due only to Torah, as it is written, “The wise shall inherit honor,” and “The wholehearted shall attain good,” and “good” signifies Torah, as it is said, “I have given you good instruction; do not forsake My Torah.” Citation Ps. 55 Citation Prov. 3 Citation Prov. 28 Citation Prov. 4 Passage ד כָּךְ הִיא דַּרְכָּהּ שֶׁל תּוֹרָה. פַּת בַּמֶּלַח תֹּאכַל, וּמַיִם בַּמְּשׂוּרָה תִּשְׁתֶּה, וְעַל הָאָרֶץ תִּישָׁן וְחַיֵּי צַעַר תִּחְיֶה, וּבַתּוֹרָה אַתָּה עָמֵל. אִם אַתָּה עֹשֶׂה כֵן, אַשְׁרֶיךָ וְטוֹב לָךְ, אַשְׁרֶיךָ בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה, וְטוֹב לָךְ לָעוֹלָם הַבָּא. ד kach hi dar|KAH shel to|RAH. pat ba|ME|lach to|CHAL, u|MA|yim ba|me|su|RAH tish|TEH, ve-AL ha-a|RETZ ti|SHAN ve|cha|YEI tza-AR tich|YEH, u|va|to|RAH a|TAH a|MEL. im a|TAH o|SEH chen, ash|RE|cha ve|TOV lach, ash|RE|cha ba-o|LAM ha|ZEH, ve|TOV lach la-o|LAM ha|BA. ד kakh hiʾ dar|KAH shel to|RAH. path bam|ME|laḥ toʾ|KHAL, u|MA|yim bam|me|śu|RAH tish|TEH, ve|ʿAL ha|ʾa|RETZ ti|SHAN ve|ḥay|YE tza|ʿAR tiḥ|YEH, u|vat|to|RAH ʾat|TAH ʿa|MEL. ʾim ʾat|TAH ʿo|śEH khen, ʾash|RE|kha ve|ṭOV lakh, ʾash|RE|kha ba|ʿo|LAM haz|ZEH, ve|ṭOV lakh la|ʿo|LAM hab|BAʾ. ד kakh hi dar|KAH shel to|RAH. pat bam|ME|laḥ to|KHAL, u|MA|yim bam|me|su|RAH tish|TEH, ve|ʿAL ha|a|RETZ ti|SHAN ve|ḥay|YE tza|ʿAR tiḥ|YEH, u|vat|to|RAH at|TAH ʿa|MEL. im at|TAH ʿo|SEH khen, ash|RE|kha ve|TOV lakh, ash|RE|kha ba|ʿo|LAM haz|ZEH, ve|TOV lakh la|ʿo|LAM hab|BA. ד koch hi dar|KOH shel toy|ROH. pas ba|ME|lach toy|CHAL, u|MA|yim bam'|su|ROH tish|TEH, v'AL ho-o|RETZ ti|SHON v'cha|YEI tza-AR tich|YEH, u|va|toy|ROH a|TOH o|MEIL. im a|TOH oy|SEH chein, ash|RE|cho v'TOYV loch, ash|RE|cho bo-oy|LOM ha|ZEH, v'TOYV loch lo-oy|LOM ha|BO. 4. This is the way of Torah: Eat bread with salt, drink water by measure, sleep on the ground, live a life of hardship, but toil in the Torah! If you do so, “You will be happy and it will be well with you”: “You will be happy” in this world, “and it shall be well with you” in the World to Come.

Do not seek greatness for yourself, and do not long for honor. Let your deeds exceed your learning. Do not crave the table of kings, for your table is greater than theirs, your crown is greater than their crown, and your Employer can be relied upon to pay you your labor’s reward.

The Torah is greater than priesthood and kingship, for kingship is acquired with thirty attainments, and priesthood is endowed with twenty-four [gifts], but the Torah is acquired by forty-eight virtues. They are: study, attentive listening, well-ordered speech, intuitive understanding, awe, reverence, humility, joy, purity, serving the wise, association with colleagues, debate with students, serenity, knowledge of Scripture and Mishna; minimizing time spent on business, worldly matters, pleasure, sleep, small talk or laughter; patience, a kindly heart, faith in the sages, and acceptance of suffering; knowing one’s place, being happy with one’s lot, restraining one’s words, and claiming no credit for parent /siddur/koren-shalem.xml prev /siddur/koren-shalem/816-817-744-745-minha-for-shabbat-ethics-of-the-fathers.xml next /siddur/koren-shalem/820-821-748-749-minha-for-shabbat-ethics-of-the-fathers.xml
