LEV1102 It was taught: R. Yochanan b. Zakkai expounded: Why was the ear singled out from all the other organs of the body [as a sign of life-long servitude]? The Holy One Blessed be He said [as it were]: "The ear that heard on Mount Sinai: 'For to Me are the children of Israel servants' -- and not servants to servants--and this one went and acquired a master for himself; let his ear be bored!"
