拉比阿奇瓦 跟在 拉比约书亚 后头进厕所,学了三件事;被责放肆,答曰「这是 妥拉」。

《处世卷》 卷里有一段 《巴拉伊塔》 教过,拉比阿奇瓦 说:我有一次跟在我师傅 拉比约书亚 后头进厕所,从他的举止上学了三件事:学了人出恭不可面朝东西,倒该面朝南北;学了人不可站着解衣,当坐着解——为知羞的缘故;又学了人不可用右手擦拭,当用左手。
It was taught in a baraita in tractate Derekh Eretz that Rabbi Akiva said: I once entered the bathroom after my teacher Rabbi Yehoshua, and I learned three things from observing his behavior: I learned that one should not defecate while facing east and west, but rather while facing north and south; I learned that one should not uncover himself while standing, but while sitting, in the interest of modesty; and I learned that one should not wipe with his right hand, but with his left.

拉比阿奇瓦 的门生 本·阿扎伊 对他说:你对师傅竟放肆到这地步,看了这许多?
Ben Azzai, a student of Rabbi Akiva, said to him: You were impertinent to your teacher to that extent that you observed that much?

他答说:这是 妥拉,我不能不学。
He replied: It is Torah, and I must learn.
