LOVE THY FRIENDS AS THYSELF

This is what Hillel Hanasi assumed, that
“Love thy friend as thyself” is the ultimate
goal in the practice. That is because it is the
clearest form to mankind.
We should not be mistaken with deeds,
for they are set before ones eyes. We know
that if we place the needs of our friends before
our own, it is bestowal. For that reason
Hillel does not define the goal as “And you
shall love the Lord your God with all your
heart and with all your soul and with all your
might,” because they are indeed one and the
same thing. It is so because one should also
love one’s friend with all his heart and with
all his soul and with all his might, because
that is the meaning of the words “as thyself.”
After all one certainly loves oneself with all
one’s heart and soul and might, but with regards
to the Creator, one may deceive oneself;
and with one’s friend it is always spread out
before his eyes.
