LEV60 For the honor of the Creator, one should display humility before others and put aside one's pride. When performing an act for the sake of God, may He be exalted, one should forget his own importance, honor, and dignity, whether he is alone or in the midst of assemblies. As Scripture says of Aharon, in spite of the high dignity of his office: “He shall remove the ashes” (Vayikra 6:3 )—the Creator obligated him to remove the ashes daily, to induce lowliness and remove arrogance from his heart. Similarly, it says of David, “And she saw King David leaping and dancing before God” (Shemuel II 26:16; see the rest of the narrative as well); and it says, “I will speak of Your testimonies in the presence of kings, and I will not be inhibited” (Tehillim 119:46).
