Y el Tirsatha les dijo que no comiesen de las cosas más santas, hasta que hubiese sacerdote con Urim y Thummim.
Rashi on Ezra
Hattirshatha That is Nehemiah, the son of Hachaliah (Neh. 8:9), and our Rabbis said (Yerushalmi Kid. 4:1) that he was named Hattirshatha because the Sages permitted him (הָתֵּר) to drink (שָּׁתָּא) wine of gentiles because he was the king’s butler.
Rashi on Ezra
of the most holy sacrifices sin-offerings and guilt-offerings, like the other priests.
Rashi on Ezra
until a priest arises, etc. like a person who says to his friend, “Until the Messiah comes, this matter will not come about.” I cannot interpret it to mean: until a priest arises for the Urim and Tumim in the Second Temple, because we find in Yoma, chapter 1 (21b) that the Urim and Tumim were missing in the Second Temple.
