Moishe the Beadle may have been avoiding people's gaze because he was a quiet and introverted individual. He may have also been trying to maintain a sense of solitude and contemplation, as he was known for his deep spirituality. His hunched over posture and downcast eyes could also reflect a sense of vulnerability or a lack of confidence in himself.
