Cultural Insight: Patience is Key

In Hebrew culture, waiting is often seen as a sign of respect and politeness. When waiting in a line or for someone to arrive, remember that patience is valued. The phrase להמתין בסבלנות (lehakel b’savlanut) translates to ‘waiting patiently’ and reflects this cultural value.
