³⁸Babli 99a, Sifry Num. 112. It is written³⁹Num. 15:31.: For he showed contempt for the Eternal’s Word. Not only if he was contemptuous of the teachings of the Torah, from where if he denied one verse, one Aramaic expression, one argument de minore ad majus? The verse says, His command he violated. One verse, Lotan’s sister was Timna`⁴⁰Gen. 36:22; cf. Gen. rabba 82(15).. One Aramaic expression, Laban called it Yegar Sahadu̅ta̅⁴¹Gen. 31:47. In Gen. rabba 72(12) the expression is characterized as Syriac.. One argument de minore ad majus: For Cain would be avenged sevenfold, etc.⁴²Gen. 4:24.

Correspondingly¹⁵⁰Tosephta Peah 1:2., there are four things that a person has to pay for in this world and the principal remains for him in the future world: Idolatry, incest and adultery, and murder. But slander is equivalent to all of these. Idolatry from where? (Num. 15:31) “This soul shall certainly be cut off, its sin is inside it.” Why does the verse say “its sin is inside it?” This teaches that the soul is destroyed and its sin is still inside it. And it is written (Ex.32:21): “Please, this people has committed a grave sin, they made for themselves golden gods.¹⁵¹The first verse proves that the sin stays in the soul at death, the second verse is a paradigm that such a sin is called “grave;” the latter expression is then used to characterize the other deadly sins.” Incest and adultery from where? (Gen. 39:9) “How can I commit that grave evil and sin before God.” Murder from where? (Gen. 4:13) “Cain said to the Eternal, my sin is grave, it cannot be removed.” When he comes to calumny, it does not say in the singular “grave” or “the grave” but in the plural “grave” (Ps. 12:4): “May the Eternal cut off all slippery lips, all tongues peaking grave words¹⁵²This is the introduction to a lengthy section on the sin of calumny..”

If it is so, what does the Day of Atonement help him⁹⁵This refers to the second part of the Mishnah. If at some time the impurity was known, the eventual obligation of a sacrifice is not eliminated by the day of Atonement. Then what is the effect of this day?? Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Bun said, the Day of Atonement acts for him as a suspended reparation sacrifice. In he died before the day of Atonement, the sin is in her⁹⁶Num. 15:31. The feminine pronoun refers to נֶפֶשׁ “the breathing person”.. After the day of Atonement it already was atoned for⁹⁷Even though an eventual obligation remains for the living person, the guilt has been atoned for..
