Talmud sur Les Nombres 11:20

“And one whose excommunication was lifted by the Sages.” Where are we holding? If they lifted it before the holiday, he should have shaved. If they did not lift it before the holiday, he may not shave. But we hold that they lifted it before the holiday and his thirtieth day fell during the holiday, since no excommunication is less than thirty days¹⁷An excommunication has to be observed for 30 days even if lifted quickly (but not if it was annulled) Babli 16a. and no rebuke is less than seven days¹⁸A student reprimanded by his teacher may not show himself for 7 days.. No excommunication is less than thirty days, up to a month of days, until it will come out of your noses¹⁹Num. 11:20.. And no rebuke is less than seven days, let her be locked away for seven days²⁰Num. 12:14.. Rebbi honored Ben Elasa²¹A very rich but totally ignorant family with whom he had relations by marriage.. Bar Qappara said to him, everybody is asking Rebbi, only you are not asking Rebbi. He asked him, what to ask? He said to him, ask²²A riddle.: “From Heaven she looks down, she is busy in her house; boys see her and hide²³A variation of Job 29:8; the next clause is a direct quote., old men rise and stand. The one who flees says, ho, ho, and the one caught is caught in his sin.” Rebbi turned around²⁴He recognized Bar Qappara’s poetic style. and saw him laughing. Rebbi said, I do not know you, old man. He understood that he would not be ordained during his lifetime²⁵Babli 17a, bottom..

²⁵⁵Here the heading is missing: “On the Ninth of Av was decided that our forefathers would not enter the Land.” The date of the return of the scouts is not directly spelled out in Num. That is what is written²⁵⁶Num. 10:11., it was in the second year in the second month on the twentieth of the month, etc. And it is written²⁵⁷Num. 10:33., they travelled from the Eternal’s mountain a distance of three days. Rebbi Zacharia, the son-in-law of Rebbi Levi: {a parable} like children who are freed from <school> (books)²⁵⁸The text in < > is from A (and also in a clearly wrong text in a Genizah excerpt, Yerushalmi Fragments, p. 184.) and leave to run²⁵⁹The letters [בכ] added by the corrector indicate a text like A: “leave to villages.” The word is missing in the Genizah excerpt. These changes misunderstand the text. R. Zacharia notes that they did not travel for three days, but the distance of three days, implying that the actual travel time was one day.. On that very day they desired a desire²⁶⁰Num. 11:20. No new date is indicated; an unqualified added month is 30 days.; up to a month, until it will come out of your noses. And the seven days of Miriam; Miriam was secluded outside the camp²⁶¹Num. 12:15.. And the 40 days of the scouts, they returned from scouting the Land at the end of 40 days. They walked and came to Moses and Aaron²⁶²Num. 13:25. etc. They came and found them occupied with the rules for ḥallah²⁶³The heave to be taken from bread dough “when you come into the Land” (Num. 15:18). and orlah²⁶⁴The fruits to be stripped from a tree during its first three years “when you come to the Land” (Lev. 19:23).. They said to them, you are not going to enter the Land and you are studying the rules for ḥallah and orlah? Immediately, the entire congregation raised their voices; the people cried in that night²⁶⁵Num. 14:1.. He said to them, you cried before Me a pointless crying. By My life, in the future you shall cry a substantial crying. Crying she will cry in the night²⁶⁶Thr. 1:2, referring to the Ninth of Av. The computation goes as follows. Starting from the 20^th of the second month one counts this day for travel, 7 days for Miryam’s seclusion, 30 days for the quail, and 40 days for the scouts, for a total of 97 days after the first of the 2^nd month. The year is supposed to start with a full 30 day first month. Therefore the 2^nd and 4^th months have 29 days, the 3^rd month 30 days, for a total of 88 days. The count ends on the 9^th of the 5th month, Q. E. D. Differently in the Babli 29a.. Rebbi Simeon ben Yoḥai stated: It is written²⁶⁷Num. 11:10. This is the second unnecessary crying mentioned in the verse., Moses heard the people crying for its families, etc. About the six incest prohibitions which Moses forbade them²⁶⁸They cried about the paternal and maternal half-sisters, the maternal and paternal aunts, the sister-in-law, and the menstruating woman, which are permitted to Gentiles but forbidden to Israelites.
