Commentary for Proverbs 22:28
אַל־תַּ֭סֵּג גְּב֣וּל עוֹלָ֑ם אֲשֶׁ֖ר עָשׂ֣וּ אֲבוֹתֶֽיךָ׃
Remove not the ancient landmark, Which thy fathers have set.
Rashi on Proverbs
Do not remove an ancient boundary Do not turn away from the custom of your forefathers. Our Sages of blessed memory said: If one places a basket under a vine at the time of vintage so that the fallen grapes should fall into it, concerning this was stated: “Do not remove an ancient boundary, etc.” remove Heb. תסג, as in (Ps. 129:5) “and shall draw backwards (ויסגו).”
