HALAKHAH: 4. It is written⁷⁸Prov. 10:26. The verse ends, so is a lazy employee for his employer. This implies that vinegar is bad for the teeth; how may the Mishnah recommend it to treat toothache?, like vinegar for the teeth or like smoke for the eyes, and you are saying so? Rebbi Simeon bar Abba said, the Mishnah is about fruit vinegar⁷⁹And the verse in Prov. about wine vinegar. In the Babli 111a the explanation is attributed to R. Abbahu.. Rebbi Eleazar bar Yose⁸⁰Since R. Simeon bar Abba was a third generation Amora, R. Eleazar bar Yose cannot be the Tanna R. Eleazar ben R. Yose; he must be a fourth or fifth generation Amora not otherwise mentioned in the Talmudim. said, even if you are saying as our Mishnah, it is good for a bad situation and bad for a good one.
