Summary

מְסִירוּת נֶפֶשׁ הָרְאוּיָה לִבְנֵי תּוֹרָה The [extent of the] self-sacrifice appropriate for Torah scholars הוּא כִּדְרָשַׁת רַזַ"ל is indicated by our Sages’ interpretation of the phrase, אָדָם כִּי יָמוּת בְּאֹהֶל “If a man dies in a tent.” לְהָמִית אֶת כָּל הַתַּעֲנוּגִים בְּעִנְיָנֵי עוֹלָם The Sages taught that [if one seeks to dedicate himself to the tents of Torah,] he must kill [i.e., eradicate] the desire for all worldly pleasures. כִּי אֲפִילוּ דְּבָרִים קַלֵּי הָעֶרֶךְ בְּתַעֲנוּגֵי עוֹלָם For even insignificant worldly pleasures מוֹנְעִים הֵמָּה מִלִּהְיוֹת מָסוּר וְנָתוּן בְּאָהֳלָהּ שֶׁל תּוֹרָה prevent one from being utterly devoted to the tents of Torah study.
