Le Lévitique 16:24 Passages liés

HALAKHAH: What is Rebbi Meïr’s reason? He undressed and sanctified, and he washed and sanctified.⁹⁷The argument is about Lev. 16:23–24, where at the end of the expiatory service Aaron is commanded first to take off his byssus garments, then to wash (immerse himself), and then to dress in the High Priest’s garb for the ordinary afternoon service.. What is the rabbi’s reason? And he undressed, and he dressed. It tied undressing to dressing⁹⁸The argument is more explicit in Sifra Aḥare Pereq 6(6) and here in Halakhah 7:3, Babli 71a. It says in Lev. 16:23, he shall take off the linen garments which he wore. Since nobody can take off clothing which he does not wear, the reference is taken to v. 4 where Aaron is commanded to wash his flesh in water and wear them. Therefore all procedures connected with dressing are required for undressing, in the same order.. Since for dressing he sanctifies, so for undressing he sanctifies. Rebbi Mana said before Rebbi Yudan, does washing separate in Rebbi Meïr’s opinion⁹⁹As formulated at the beginning, the second sanctification is tied to washing, not to dressing. This is unreasonable.? He said to him, you think that Rebbi Meïr’s reason is, and he undressed and sanctified, and he washed and sanctified.. It is not so, but and he undressed and sanctified, and he washed and dressed and sanctified.
