Talmud sur Avot 1:12
הִלֵּל וְשַׁמַּאי קִבְּלוּ מֵהֶם. הִלֵּל אוֹמֵר, הֱוֵי מִתַּלְמִידָיו שֶׁל אַהֲרֹן, אוֹהֵב שָׁלוֹם וְרוֹדֵף שָׁלוֹם, אוֹהֵב אֶת הַבְּרִיּוֹת וּמְקָרְבָן לַתּוֹרָה:
Hillel et Shammai l'ont reçu d'eux. Hillel dit: Soyez des disciples d'Aaron, aimant la paix et recherchant la paix, aimant les hommes et les rapprochant de la Torah. [Ils ont expliqué dans Avoth d 'R. Nathan comment Aaron aimait la paix. Quand il voyait deux hommes se quereller, il allait vers chacun à l'insu de l'autre et lui disait: "Regarde ton ami. Vois comme il regrette ce qu'il a fait et comment il se frappe d'avoir péché contre toi. Il m'a demandé de venir vers vous et de vous prier de lui pardonner. " Ensuite, quand ils se rencontraient, ils s'embrassaient. Et comment rapprocherait-il les hommes de la Torah? Quand il savait qu'un homme avait transgressé, il se lierait d'amitié avec lui et le regarderait avec bonté—sur quoi l'autre pensait, honteux: "Si ce tsadik connaissait mes mauvaises actions, comment il se distancerait de moi!" En conséquence, il se repentirait. Tel est le témoignage du prophète (Malachie 2: 6): "C'est dans la paix et la justice qu'il (Aaron) marcha avec moi, et beaucoup se détournèrent du péché."]

When a person does not give part of what he earns to his fellows in this world, then he will not be given anything in the World to Come, as it says (Ecclesiastes 4:1), “Look at the tears of the oppressed, and they have no comforter. Power is in the hand of their oppressors, and they have no comforter.” Why does it say “they have no comforter” twice? This refers to people who eat and drink in this world, and their sons and daughters are successful, but in the World to Come they have [nothing and they have no] comforter. For if a person has something stolen from him in this world, or if someone he knows dies, then his children, siblings, and other relatives come and comfort him. Could it be that the same is true in the World to Come? That is why the verse then says (Ecclesiastes 4:8), “He has neither son nor brother.”
So, too, with someone whose sexual transgression produces a mamzer [a child born of certain forbidden sexual relations]. They say to him: Empty one! You have ruined yourself and you have ruined him as well! [For this mamzer would have wanted to study Torah with the rest of the students] who sit and study in Jerusalem. But this mamzer would go with them only up to Ashdod, and then would stop there and say: Woe is me! If I were not a mamzer, I would have gone to sit and study among the students whom I have been studying with until now. But because I am a mamzer, I cannot sit and study among these students. For a mamzer cannot enter Jerusalem at all, as it says (Zechariah 9:6), “The mamzer will stay in Ashdod, (and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.”
