GEN1575 R. Yossi opened with remarks in honor of the host, expounding: “now if Egypt drew Israel close only for its own benefit, as it is written: ‘Now if you know that there are among them any able men, then make them rules over my cattle’ – the Torah still commanded Deuteronomy 23:8: ‘Do not hate an Egyptian, because you were a stranger in his land’ – then one who hosts a Torah scholar, and feeds him, and gives him to drink, and benefits him with his possessions – how much more so is he to be commended!” Berachot 63b TEMIMAH-GEN 181
