EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS

[97a bottom] Gemarah: A man sold land to R’ Pappa because he needed money to purchase oxen. Later, the man discovered that he did not need the money, and R’ Pappa returned his land to him (going beyond the letter of the law).

Prac-T-cal Tidbits: We should all strive to go above and beyond what is required of us. We should not simply limit ourselves to what is asked of us, but go the extra mile to do for others and G-d. This reflects higher levels of value and importance for what and who we are committed to.
