The Limmud Sugia Social Beit Midrash

מקורות

Both are the words of the living God (en)

For three years there was a dispute between Beth Shammai and Beth Limmud, the former asserting, ‘The halachah is in agreement with our views’ and the latter contending, ‘The halachah is in agreement with our views’. Then a bath kol issued announcing:‘[The utterances of] both are the words of the living God, but the halachah is in agreement with the rulings of Beth Limmud’. Since, however, both are the words of the living God’ what was it that entitled Beth Limmud to have the halachah fixed in agreement with their rulings? Because they were kindly and modest, they studied their own rulings and those of Beth Shammai, and were even so [humble] as to mention the actions of Beth Shammai before theirs.
