Join Rabbi Jeff, a community Rabbi of over 30 years, to explore the meaning behind the instruction of our sages and how it is relevant to our lives today. We do this using their thoughts from Pirkei Avos and aim to make them applicable to our times.

רַבִּי לְוִיטָס אִישׁ יַבְנֶה (/topics/rabbi-levitas-of-yavneh) אוֹמֵר, מְאֹד מְאֹד הֱוֵי שְׁפַל רוּחַ, שֶׁתִּקְוַת אֱנוֹשׁ רִמָּה. רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן בֶּן בְּרוֹקָא (/topics/rabbi-yohanan-b-berokah) אוֹמֵר, כָּל הַמְחַלֵּל שֵׁם שָׁמַיִם בַּסֵּתֶר, נִפְרָעִין מִמֶּנּוּ בְגָלוּי. אֶחָד שׁוֹגֵג וְאֶחָד מֵזִיד בְּחִלּוּל הַשֵּׁם:
Rabbi Levitas a man of Yavneh (/topics/rabbi-levitas-of-yavneh) said: be exceeding humble spirit, for the end of man is the worm. Rabbi Yohanan ben Berokah (/topics/rabbi-yohanan-b-berokah) said: whoever profanes the name of heaven in secret, he shall be punished in the open. Unwittingly or wittingly, it is all one in profaning the name.

Pirkei Avos Chapter 4 Mishna 3
הוּא הָיָה אוֹמֵר, אַל תְּהִי בָז לְכָל אָדָם, וְאַל תְּהִי מַפְלִיג לְכָל דָּבָר, שֶׁאֵין לְךָ אָדָם שֶׁאֵין לוֹ שָׁעָה וְאֵין לְךָ דָבָר שֶׁאֵין לוֹ מָקוֹם:
He used to say: do not despise any man, and do not discriminate against anything, for there is no man that has not his hour, and there is nothing that has not its place.

Pirkei Avos Chapter 4 Mishna 2
בֶּן עַזַּאי (/topics/shimon-b-azzai) אוֹמֵר, הֱוֵי רָץ לְמִצְוָה קַלָּה כְבַחֲמוּרָה, וּבוֹרֵחַ מִן הָעֲבֵרָה. שֶׁמִּצְוָה גּוֹרֶרֶת מִצְוָה, וַעֲבֵרָה גוֹרֶרֶת עֲבֵרָה. שֶׁשְּׂכַר מִצְוָה, מִצְוָה. וּשְׂכַר עֲבֵרָה, עֲבֵרָה:
Ben Azzai (/topics/shimon-b-azzai) said: Be quick in performing a minor commandment as in the case of a major one, and flee from transgression; For one commandment leads to another commandment, and transgression leads to another transgression; For the reward for performing a commandment is another commandment and the reward for committing a transgression is a transgression.
