#23 - Honor and Respect for All Torah Educators
from Climb Sinai: The Big Ideas of Judaism · host Rabbi Jack Cohen EdM
Based on Mishnah Torah I: Book of Knowledge, the Laws of Torah Learning/Teaching, Ch. 6 Do we need to afford honor and respect to all Torah teachers or just our own? Is reverence just a formality? How might practicing reverence towards the people who deserve it impact us as people? Every society is shaped by its relationship to its teachers. Reverence produces an receptivity to the wisdom a society seeks to transmit to the next generation, and a general irreverence nurtures an instability that is untenable.
