And walk modestly

And walk modestly

I was commanded by a reader not to gouge out eyes and to behave in a civilized and humble manner.

("Adam, tell me what is good, and what does the Lord require of you? To do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God" - Micah 6:8, and also: "And you walk humbly with the Lord your God...this is the way the dead are brought out, and you gather them all together into a canopy" - Masachet Sukkah Matt 4:2, and also: "And he still hid his works in secret and walked humbly" - Sha"i Agnon/ The Tales of the Be'eshbat, The Disgrace)
