Musar su Salmi 73:5
בַּעֲמַ֣ל אֱנ֣וֹשׁ אֵינֵ֑מוֹ וְעִם־אָ֝דָ֗ם לֹ֣א יְנֻגָּֽעוּ׃
Non sono nei guai dell'uomo; né sono afflitti come uomini.
Kav HaYashar
Many communal leaders have fallen into this trap due to pride and arrogance. They intimidate the community unnecessarily and indulge and pamper themselves. They exempt themselves from communal taxes, making life easier for themselves but harder for others. They claim first pick of every honor and distinction. Their faces glow from plenty and they are strong and healthy through the satisfaction of their every desire. “They have no share in the toil of other men, nor are they afflicted along with other men” (Tehillim 73:5).
