Commentaire sur Les Proverbes 27:21
מַצְרֵ֣ף לַ֭כֶּסֶף וְכ֣וּר לַזָּהָ֑ב וְ֝אִ֗ישׁ לְפִ֣י מַהֲלָלֽוֹ׃
La fournaise, pour l’argent, le creuset pour l’or, et l’homme est prisé d’après sa réputation.
Rashi on Proverbs
The refining pot A vessel made to refine silver. The furnace is made to refine gold. A man is refined and considered according to his praise; according to how people praise him for his good deeds, he is tested by the public, whether good or bad.
