Campaign #1: Having a Jew Get Up From His Seat at Shul
Lesson
- The seat that we have is the one that we give.
- No act of humiliation can be justified. One word can take away an entire generation from Torah.
- It is forbidden to make a newcomer get up from his seat in shul (Piskei Teshuvot 90,24).
- He who humiliates his fellow, his prayer is not answered (Ari zal).
