132

Repeat the Golden Rule.

“All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets” ([Matthew vii, 12]; [Luke vi, 31]).

Seventy years before Christ, Hillel, the Jewish rabbi, said:

“Do not to others what you would not have them do to you. This is the substance of the law.”

Rabbi Hirsch says: “Before Jesus, the Golden Rule was one of the household sayings of Israel.”
