 Hashem instructs Moshe to tell the Children of Israel, "''Kedoshim tihiyu,'' you shall be holy," but does not specify what one must do to be holy. Rashi says that this means one must abstain from immoral behavior. Ramban says that it means one should restrain oneself from indulging in permissible pleasures. His famous statement is that a person might be a ''naval bereshus haTorah,'' a degenerate person who is technically observant of all 613 mitzvos.
