Talmud zu Divrej Hajamim I 7:41
Jerusalem Talmud Kiddushin
HALAKHAH: “One does not investigate from the altar and before,” etc. It is written151Deut. 17:15.: “You certainly shall put a king over you.” This refers not only to a king; from where to add public officials, administrators of welfare, clerks of the court, and those who whip with a lash152Employees of the criminal court.; from where? The verse says, “from amidst your brothers you shall appoint a king over you151Deut. 17:15.,” anybody whom you appoint over you shall only be from the select among your brethren153He can be called your brother only if he belongs to your marriage group. Therefore, anybody whose daughter cannot be married by anybody, including priests, is excluded from public office. In the Babli, 76b, it is inferred from this argument that only children of a Jewish mother can be appointed to public office.. Rebbi Samuel bar Naḥman in the name of Rebbi Jonathan: “Their distinguished lineage in the army in war.1541Chr. 7:40. This refers to the statement of R. Ḥanina ben Antigonos and a hypothetical army of the Messiah. In the Babli, 76b, “the king’s army” is interpreted as David’s army as described in 1Chr.” The merit of their lineage supports them in war. So far from tradition155Prophets and Hagiographs, which do not have standing as sources of the law.; from the words of the Torah? “No bastard shall come into the Eternal’s congregation156Deut. 23:3..” “No person injured in his testicles shall come157Deut. 23:2. The spelling supports the Yemenite tradition., etc.” What is written afterwards? “When you encamp against your enemies, etc.158Deut. 23:10, directly after the end of the rules of exclusion from endogamous marriage. It is explicit in the Babli (Yebamot 4a) that the order of verses in Deut. is important for the correct interpretation. The implication is that only persons of impeccable lineage should be admitted to the Eternal’s army.”

Jerusalem Talmud Moed Katan
Rebbi Ila, Rebbi Eleazar in the name of Rebbi Ḥanina: Because one does not mix one joy with another joy. Rebbi La understood it from the following1211Chr. 7:9.: For they celebrated the initiation of the altar for seven days and the holiday122Tabernacles. for seven days. Rebbi Jacob bar Aḥa understood it from the following123Gen. 29:27.: finish the week of this one. Rebbi Abbahu in the name of Rebbi Eleazar: Because of the exertion. It was stated: But one may plan and marry on the eve of a holiday. This does not disagree with Rebbi Eleazar124Who forbids on a holiday because of the extra exertion a wedding implies, since the wedding is held before the holiday.; this does not disagree with Rebbi Joḥanan125Who forbids putting off weddings at least for people who have not yet procreated.. And even with Rebbi Ḥanina it does not disagree126Who prohibits mixing one joy with another joy, since the main joy of the seven days of the wedding week is the first day.. Rebbi Abba said, when the bride enters the exertion leaves127This proves that the baraita does not disagree with R. Ḥanina. Once the bride enters the wedding chamber after the wedding, the attendants and caterers are no longer needed. Babli 8b..

Jerusalem Talmud Sotah
It was stated219Tosephta 15:1 the entire paragraph. The Babli, 48b, quotes only the part referring to R. Jehudah’s statement, and that anonymously.
In many places, the shamir is listed as a creature whose existence was part of the plan of Creation but which came into being only at its appointed time (the expression being: it was created Friday evening at dusk): Mishnah Abot5:6, Babli Pesaḥim 54a, Sifry Deut. 355, Mekhilta Bešallaḥ Wayyissa‘ 5, Abot dR. Nathan B 37, Pirqe R. Eliezer19,31, Tanḥuma Wayyera 23, Pseudo-Jonathan Num. 22:28, Midraš Ma‘aśeh
Torah (Jellinek vol. 2, p. 100). Cf. also the story of Solomon and the shamir in Babli Giṭṭin 68b.: Rebbi Jehudah said, what was this shamir? It is a creature that existed from the creation of the world and if one shows it stones those would open themselves like the two boards of a pinax220A writing tablet of two smooth wooden plates hinged together and covered with wax. Greek πίναξ, - ακος, ὁ, “board, plank, anything made of wood; writing tablet, catalogs, etc.”, and Solomon built the Temple with it. That is what is written2211K. 6:7.: “During the building of the House, it was built from whole carried stones, and hammers or axe or any iron implement was not heard in the House when it was built.” Rebbi Nehemiah says, they were sawed. That is what is written2221K. 7:9.: “All these were expensive stones, in the measure of ashlars, sawed with a saw inside and out.” Say now, at the building site they were not treated at all but they were finished outside and then brought inside223Since iron may not be used in the building of the Temple, Ex. 20:25.. Rebbi says, the words of Rebbi Jehudah are convincing for the stones of the Temple and those of Rebbi Nehemiah for the stones of Solomon’s palace. But since nothing can withstand it, and even when it was put on a stone or a box sheet it would split it and fall down, what did they do to restrain it? One was binding it with wool fibers and put it into a lead cylinder filled with barley bran. That is what is written224Am. 5:9; this is taken as referring to the shamir.: “He enjoys robbing the strong.”
