Commentary for Yoma 139:20
ותו בין לרבי אליעזר בין לרבי עקיבא אימורי חטאת אימת עביד להו
THEY WOULD ACCOMPANY HIM TO HIS HOUSE. HE WOULD ARRANGE FOR A DAY OF FESTIVITY FOR HIS FRIENDS WHENEVER HE HAD COME FORTH FROM THE SANCTUARY IN PEACE.
Rashi on Yoma
On account of the congregation’s honor - For they would have to wait in passive silence [while the Torah was rolled].
