    About this Episode

    In this episode, we learn positive mitzvah #17, which is to stand before elders and Torah scholars, or talmideh chachamim.

    • Elderly are defined as a 70-year-old.
    • A Torah Scholar (talmid chacham) is one who is knowledgeable in Torah.
    • One should stand when the elder or talmid chacham walks within 6 feet of the person, and he or she  can sit back down once they pass by.
    • For a "Rav Muvhak", or someone's main Rabbi from whom one learned majority of their Torah, one should stand as the Rav Muvhak enters one's eyesight
    • There are two opinions as to how many times one would be required to stand per day:
      1. One opinion says, maximum twice per day
      2. The other opinion is that there is no maximum
    • The elder or Torah scholar is allowed to forgo on this honor and permit people not to stand for them
