Rabbi Akiva said: Mockery and frivolity lead to immorality. The oral tradition (Mesora) is a fence that guards the Torah; tithes are a fence that guards wealth; vows are a fence that guards abstinence. Silence is the fence that guards wisdom.

As a mark of especial love, it was disclosed to them that children of God is their name, as it is said, “You are the children of the LORD your God.” Israel is beloved, for a precious vessel [the Torah] was given them. As a mark of especial love, it was disclosed to them that this precious vessel, through which the world was created, had been given them, as it is said, “Good instruction have I given you; do not forsake My Torah.” Citation Gen. 9 Citation Deut. 14 Citation Prov. 4 parent /siddur/koren-shalem.xml prev /siddur/koren-shalem/794-795-722-723-minha-for-shabbat-ethics-of-the-fathers.xml next /siddur/koren-shalem/798-799-726-727-minha-for-shabbat-ethics-of-the-fathers.xml
