Talmud zu Divrej Hajamim II 30:36
Jerusalem Talmud Pesachim
Impure by a corpse. I have not only impure by a corpse; impure by genital discharge, impure by skin disease, from where? The verse says impure (by the dead)10This word should be deleted since there is no verse containing this expression. The argument is that while one would expect the accents to be טָמֵ֣א לָנֶ֡פֶשׁ “impure by a corpse,” the first word carries legarmeh, a dividing accent, טָמֵ֣א ׀ לָנֶ֡פֶשׁ, correctly translated “impure, [e. g.,] by a corpse.” Babli 93a, Sifry Num. 69., it added. Why does the verse say, impure by a corpse11The argument is not really from this quote but from the entire first part of the verse: every single man who would be impure, by a corpse.? A man impure by a corpse is pushed to the Second Pesaḥ, but a public impure by the impurity of a corpse are not pushed to the Second Pesaḥ. Those impure by genital discharge or impure by skin disease are pushed to the Second Pesaḥ. They made the impurity of idolatry equal to the impure by genital discharge or impure by skin disease12As explained in the paragraph after the next.. If Israel had the possibility to build the Temple13If the Temple could be rebuilt after the 14th of Nisan but before the 14th of Iyar., individuals celebrate the Second Pesaḥ but the public does not celebrate the Second Pesaḥ. 14From here on, the text is from Nazir6:13 (Notes 83–109), Sanhedrin 1:2 (Notes 209–219). Rebbi Jehudah says, the public celebrates the Second Pesaḥ since we find that Hezekia celebrated the Second Pesaḥ. This is what is written, for most of the people from Ephraim and Manasse152Chr. 30:18., etc.

Some Tannaïm state: One intercalates the year because of impurity16One does not intercalate a 13th month to give people time to purify themselves in time for the Pesaḥ on the 14th of Nisan.. Some Tannaïm state: One does not intercalate the year because of impurity. He who says, one does not intercalate, how does he uphold: for they ate the Passover contrary to what is written172Chr. 30:18. Hezeqiah celebrated Pesaḥ a month late; that is exactly what Scripture prescribes for impure individuals.? They intercalated in Nisan but only Adar can be intercalated. This follows what Rebbi Simon bar Zavdi said: they found the skull of Oman the Yebusite under the altar18This statement is from Soṭah 5:2, Note 90; it must refer to the construction of the altar by Solomon. Hezekiah moved the month because the Temple was not usable in Nisan since similarly the Temple was found to be a “tent” over human bones and thus impure. Ornan was the original owner of the Temple Mount (1Chr. 21:18–26); the text does not imply that Gentiles create tent impurity. Babli Sanhedrin 12a..

Jerusalem Talmud Taanit
From where the lifting of hands? So you shall bless the Children of Israel22Num. 6:22.. So far during the morning prayers23Since in the Temple the priestly blessing was recited at the time of the morning sacrifice, the inspiration for the morning prayer service.. At musaf? Aaron lifted his hands for the people24Lev. 9:22, description of the special inauguration service of the Tabernacle.. Is not this verse distorted? Should it not read: he descended from making the purification sacrifice, and the elevation sacrifice, and the well-being sacrifice, and after this, Aaron lifted his hands for the people? But it teaches25The verse mentioning blessing before descent. that while descending from the altar he lifted his hands and blessed the people. 26Babli Sotah38a.And he blessed them, standing. I could think, not while standing. The verse says27Deut. 21:5., the Eternal, your God, selected them to serve Him and to bless in His Name. It combines blessing with service. Since service is done standing, also blessing is done standing. And so it says282Chr. 30:27., the Levitic Cohanim rose and blessed the people. The verse speaks of the generation of Ezechias, when they toiled in the Torah. But in other generations, when they were serving foreign worship, what does it say? When you spread your hands my eyes shall disregard you29Is. 1:15.. 22Num. 6:22.And he blessed them, any blessing. But we did not hear which it was until the verse came and explained it30Num. 6:24–26.: The Eternal shall bless you and guard you. The Eternal shall enlighten His presence to you and show you favor. The Eternal shall turn His presence to you and give you peace.
