All [books of] Holy Scripture may be saved from the fire, whether we read from them or whether we do not read from them. Even though they are written in any [foreign] language, they warrant being hidden away. Now why do we not read from them? Because of the neglect of the lecture hall. We may save the case of the scroll with the scroll, and the case of the tefillin with the tefillin, even though there is money in them. To where may we take them for safety? To a blind alley. Ben Beseira says: Even to an open one.
