PostSubject: Rambam and the Egyptian viceroy   Rambam and the Egyptian viceroy EmptySun Nov 06, 2011 5:15 pm

Does anyone remember the story or can tell me where i can find it? Story is about and egyptian viceroy having a meal with Rambam and the viceroy was going to pass the wine cup to Rambam and then stopped and told him that Jews don't accept stuff from gentiles...then Rambam got up and requested a basin, washed the viceroys feet then drank the water. (eeck) Then said to him, "a mitzvah is a mitzvah, but your life is precious to me". Thanks.
