Halakha Bilangan 32:20: Shulchan Arukh, Even HaEzer

Anyone who says “from now” or “al menath”¹⁰⁵lit. “on condition.” need not double his condition and¹⁰⁶(he need not). put the condition before the act. However, he must conditionalize something that is possible to fulfill. There are those who disagree and say that even if he said “from now” or al menath all four elements in the condition are still needed. [Note: There are those who say that even if he does not express all the laws of conditions¹⁰⁷i.e., he does not apply specifically all four elements required for a condition. but simply said that he makes a condition like the condition of the Gadites and the Reubenites,¹⁰⁸This term is used to describe the process whereby both alternatived to any condition are stated. The biblical passages Numbers 32:20-23, 29-30 provide the origins for the term. behold this is a complete condition. (Hagahot Maimon Chapter 6)]
