The Torah scholar plays a significant role in the world. We believe that the reason why the Almighty created the world was for Torah study. We also believe that absent Torah study, the world would cease to exist. The Torah scholar is truly indispensable for the world’s continuity. What ought to be the Torah scholar’s attitudes towards the pursuits that the masses covet: money, power, prestige, honor, distinction? How should those pursuits play into his thinking? In this Mishnah we find the answer given by our Sages.
