Commentary for Kiddushin 64:12
רבי שמעון בן אלעזר אומר מנין לזקן שלא יטריח ת"ל זקן ויראת איסי בן יהודה אומר מפני שיבה תקום אפילו כל שיבה במשמע
I might think that one must rise up before him out of a privy or a bathhouse, therefore it is written 'thou shalt rise up and thou shalt honour', [implying] I ordered to rise up only in a place where it confers honour. I might think that one may shut his eyes as though he has not seen him: therefore it is taught,. thou shalt rise up, and thou shalt fear thy God:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Ibid.');"><sup>26</sup></span>
Daf Shevui to Kiddushin
R. Shimon b. Elazar adds that the elder should not put himself into a position whereby he forces others to rise.
Issi b. Judah disagrees with the definition of an “elder” from the beginning of the baraita. He holds that one must rise before any old person, even if he is not an elder.
