Negative Mitzvah 252: It is forbidden to hurt a convert's feelings
Exodus 22:20 "You shall not wrong a stranger"A "Ger" is a person who converted to Judaism and took upon him-or herself to keep the Torah and Mitzvot.
We are commanded not to hurt his feelings or say anything that may cause the Ger to be embarrassed or feel uneasy.
G-d delights when little children jump and play on His holy books. Not that we should encourage it...but at least we can provide the holy books.
