Talmud sur Rois 2 5:18
לַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֔ה יִסְלַ֥ח יְהוָ֖ה לְעַבְדֶּ֑ךָ בְּב֣וֹא אֲדֹנִ֣י בֵית־רִמּוֹן֩ לְהִשְׁתַּחֲוֺ֨ת שָׁ֜מָּה וְה֣וּא ׀ נִשְׁעָ֣ן עַל־יָדִ֗י וְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֵ֙יתִי֙ בֵּ֣ית רִמֹּ֔ן בְּהִשְׁתַּחֲוָיָ֙תִי֙ בֵּ֣ית רִמֹּ֔ן יִסְלַח־נא יְהוָ֥ה לְעַבְדְּךָ֖ בַּדָּבָ֥ר הַזֶּֽה׃
Toutefois, que l’Éternel pardonne une chose à ton serviteur: quand mon maître vient se prosterner dans le temple de Rimmôn, il s’appuie sur mon bras; je devrai donc me prosterner dans le temple de Rimmôn. Or, lorsque je me prosternerai dans ce temple, que l’Éternel pardonne cette action à ton serviteur."
Jerusalem Talmud Sheviit
Rebbi Abuna asked before Rebbi Ammi: Are Gentiles required to sanctify the Name29“To sanctify the Name” means to suffer martyrdom for one’s faith (under the conditions spelled out before.)? He said to him (Lev. 22:32): “I shall be sanctified in the midst of the Children of Israel.” Israel are required to sanctify the Name; the Gentiles are not required to sanctify the Name. Rebbi Nasa in the name of Rebbi Lazar understood it from the following (2K. 5:18): “May the Eternal forgive His servant for this30Elisha permitted Naaman to accompany his king to a pagan temple and to bow down there; for a Jew that would be unthinkable. Same argument in Babli Sanhedrin 74b, in the name of the school of Rav., etc.” Israel are required to sanctify the Name; the Gentiles are not required to sanctify the Name.
