Good to Heaven and to People

The God-fearing person is not only careful about "the commandments between a person and his place" but also about "the commandments between a person and his friend" in the same way.

("They said (Isaiah 3:1) The righteous is good, for they shall eat the fruit of their labors - and why is there a righteous man who is good, and there is a righteous man who is not good? But, good for heaven and for mankind - this is a good righteous man, good for heaven and evil for mankind - this is a righteous man who is not good" - Kiddushin 4:1)

Expression (Hebrew)

טוֹב לַשָּׁמַיִם וְלַבְּרִיּוֹת

Definition (Hebrew)

יָרֵא שָׁמַיִם הַמַּקְפִּיד לֹא רַק עַל "מִצְווֹת שֶׁבֵּין אָדָם לַמָּקוֹם" אֶלָּא גַּם עַל "מִצְווֹת שֶׁבֵּין אָדָם לַחֲבֵרוֹ" בְּאוֹתָהּ הַהַקְפָּדָה.

("אָמְרוּ (יְשַׁעְיָהוּ ג) צַדִּיק כִּי טוֹב כִּי פְרִי מַעַלְלֵיהֶם יֹאכֵלוּ- וְכִי יֵשׁ צַדִּיק טוֹב, וְיֵשׁ צַדִּיק שֶׁאֵינוֹ טוֹב? אֶלָּא, טוֹב לַשָּׁמַיִם וְלַבְּרִיּוֹת- זֶהוּ צַדִּיק טוֹב, טוֹב לַשָּׁמַיִם וְרַע לַבְּרִיּוֹת- זֶהוּ צַדִּיק שֶׁאֵינוֹ טוֹב"- קִדּוּשִׁין מ ע"א)
