Should one stand for the Aseres Hadibros?


According to some opinions, one should not show more honor to one section of the Torah than to another since every word is equally holy and important. Nevertheless, the widespread custom is to stand for the Aseres Hadibros as did the Jewish nation at Har Sinai, and to demonstrate that these are the fundamental principles of the Torah. In any event, one should always follow the local custom.
