Tractate Sefer Torah
The Torah Scroll should not be placed on a bed or at the foot of the bed or under the bed, so that a man may sit (alternative reading that makes more sense: and a man should not sit) on a bed when a Torah Scroll is on it. It is related regarding Rabbi Eliezer that he was sitting on the bed. When he remembered that a Torah Scroll was on it, he got up and sat on the ground like a man who was bitten by a snake. As it is written: “You shall keep My Shabbats and venerate My sanctuary” (Leviticus 19:30). You shall not fear the Shabbats themselves, but the One who commanded them to you. Since it is written “This is my God and I will glorify Him” (Exodus 15:2), it is interpreted to mean beautify Him in commandments such as having beautiful tzitzit, mezuzah, Torah Scrolls, etc. as Rabbi Yishmael said. Rabbi Akiva says that the verse means “I will speak about God’s beauty”, i.e. praise His abundant greatness. Aba Shaul says the verse means “I will be like Him”. Just as He is compassionate and merciful, so too you should be compassionate and merciful.
