Standing for the Elderly Although the topic of standing for the elderly is very relevant, so many of the halachos are unknown. One sees elderly people,1 both learned and not learned, every day. At what age is one considered elderly? From when does the halachah to stand for the elderly apply? Until when does one have to stand? Does one have to stand for a non-Jew? What about an elderly woman who is learned? If an elderly person is mochel on his honor, does one still have to stand for him? These and other questions will be discussed in this issue.(This discussion does not relate to one’s rebbi or the rebbi from whom he received most of his knowledge, as the halachah for a rebbi is different.)
