Happy is the student whose teacher admits he is right

Happy is that student whose teacher accepted his words and even preferred them over his own opinion. A compliment for a clever student who said something wise or corrected his teacher's words.

("The Lord said: I have forgiven according to your word. It was taught in the school of Rabbi Ishmael: According to your word, so will the nations of the world say. Happy is the student whose teacher admits he is right" - Berakhot 15a)

מְאֻשָּׁר הוּא אוֹתוֹ תַּלְמִיד שֶׁמּוֹרוֹ קִבֵּל אֶת דְּבָרָיו וְאַף הֶעֱדִיפָם עַל פְּנֵי דַּעְתּוֹ. מַחְמָאָה לַתַּלְמִיד פִּקֵּחַ שֶׁאָמַר דָּבָר חָכָם אוֹ שֶׁתִּקֵּן אֶת דִּבְרֵי מוֹרוֹ.
