Rising for those who perform chesed

Hi,

"Rabbi Yosi bar Bun said: Those who stand before the dead are not standing before the dead, but before those who are performing chesed for it."

(Talmud Yerushalmi, Bikkurim 3:3)

Have a great day,
Mordechai

Honoring performance of a mitzvah

Hi,

"See how great is the power of people performing mitzvot: Workers are not supposed to rise before elders while working, but they are supposed to rise before people who are performing mitzvot."

(Talmud Yerushalmi, Bikkurim 3:3)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
