Tafsiran yang Mengutip untuk Yehezkiel 16:10

חליצתה פסולה – like a kind of felt housing for the foot, his Halitzah is disqualified, for we require something that protects; It is written here (Deuteronomy 25:9): “[pull the sandal off] his foot, [spit in his face]” and it is written there (Ezekiel 16:10): “[I clothed you with embroidered garments,] and gave you sandals of dolphin leather to wear, [wound fine linen around your head, and dressed you in silks],” and it is of leather.

so ist die Chaliza ungiltig. Weil die Filzsocke den Fuss nicht genügend schützt. Dass aber diese Eigenschaft erforderlich ist, folgt aus dem Ausdrucke נעלו Deut. 25, 9, der einen Gegenstand bedeutet, der den Fuss „verwahrt, einschliesst“, und dass der Schuh aus Leder sein muss, findet der Talmud (Jeb. 102 b) in ואנעלך תחש Ez. 16, 10 angedeutet.

A Midrashic approach based on Midrash Tehillim 23: Rabbi Eliezer asked Rabbi Shimon where the Israelites got all their clothing during the forty years in the desert. Rabbi Shimon answered that their clothing came from the same source as that of the ministering angels. He based this on Ezekiel 16,10: “I clothed you in embroidered garments.” Concerning the meaning of the word רקמה, “embroidered,” used by the prophet, Rabbi Simai said that it is a kind of mantle. To the question: “did they not wear out?” Rabbi Shimon replied: “Did you not ever read the text of the Torah? The Torah tells you that the clothing did not wear out!” To this Rabbi Rabbi Simai retorted: ‎”did then the clothing grow with the children?” He was told to take his cue from the lizard whose skin (compared to clothing because it is shed) also grows with it. To this came the question: “did this clothing not ever need laundering?” He was answered that the cloud would both wash it and iron it. The questioner then wanted to know if these clothes did not ever burn, catch fire? He was told to observe a certain category of animal called Sitin (salamander) which are “sort of dry-cleaning themselves” in fire without suffering burns. The questioner now wanted to know if the people wearing the same clothing for forty years did not ever experience attacks by vermin such as lice, etc.? Thereupon the questioner was told that if the bodies of these people were not subject to attacks by worms, they would certainly not be vicitimized by vermin while they were alive. The next question concerned the foul smell that must have emanated from people who wore the same clothes year in year out without change. The answer given was that the traveling well produced fragrant smells which neutralised any stench emitted by the clothing of the people. This is why they did not have to change their garments at all. In fact, according to our tradition this well made all kinds of herbs grow, herbs the fragrance of which could be inhaled from one end of the earth to the other. The people would waft these herbs to and fro; this is what David referred to in Psalms 23,2 בנאות דשא ירביצני, “He makes me lie down in green pastures.” Solomon also referred to this phenomenon in Song of Songs 4,11 when he said: “and the scent of your robes is like the scent of Lebanon”. Thus far Midrash Tehillim on Psalms 23. The meaning of the word sittim is “garment;” a garment the size of a זרת, the span between the two outermost fingers of the hand, is called sit.
