Question
Is it permissible for a person to take pride in knowing a tractate or the entire Shas by heart, and similar achievements? On one hand, it is written: "But let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me." On the other hand, "And the man Moses was very humble, more than all men," and the great sages of the generations were humble in this regard.
Answer

There is a concept of not taking pride in one's knowledge of Torah.
