[20b middle] Bais Hillel: If on Shabbos (when cooking is prohibited) one can offer sacrifices to Hashem, then certainly on YomTov (when cooking is permitted) one should certainly be allowed to offer sacrifices to Hashem (an Olas Reiyah) as well.
Abba Shaul: Your table should not be full, while that of your Master’s is empty.

E’s Lesson: We must always recognize our role in this world and put G-d’s desires before our own. This lesson applies to putting other people in our lives before our own selves as well. We gain the most when we are able to give of ourselves the greatest.
