Rujukan Talmud untuk Ester 9:22: Jerusalem Talmud Megillah, Megillah & Jerusalem Talmud Sotah

HALAKHAH: “The scroll is read,” etc. Rebbi Ila, Simeon bar Abba in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: To confirm these Purim days in their times⁷Esth. 9:31.. Why does the verse say, in their times? Rebbi Jonah and Rebbi Yose. Rebbi Jonah says, to give them other times⁸He would allow other days than those enumerated in the Mishnah if circumstances demand it.. Rebbi Yose says, times which the Sages fixed for them. And those are these: the Eleventh, the Twelfth, the Thirteenth, the Fourteenth, the Fifteenth⁹Since the days enumerated in the Mishnah are supposed to have been decreed by the Great Assembly, they could be modified only by an assembly of greater authority. It is unlikely that such an assembly ever could be convened. Differently in the Babli, 2a.. Or maybe only the Sixteenth and the Seventeenth? Rebbi Abbahu in the name of Rebbi Eleazar: and it shall not pass by¹⁰Esth. 9:27., one shall not impregnate¹¹The language is taken from calendar computation where “intercalation” is called “impregnation”. Here it means “changing the usual calendar data.”. Rebbi Isaac bar Naḥman in the name of Samuel: and it shall not pass by, and one shall not let it pass¹²Reading the root עבר not as rabbinic Hebrew “to be pregnant” but as biblical Hebrew “to pass by”. One may not celebrate Purim later than the last date mentioned in the Scroll, the 15^th of Adar.. Maybe it is only the Ninth and the Tenth? Samuel bar Naḥman in the name of Rebbi Jonathan: It is not written “days” but like the days¹³Esth. 9:22., pair days with days, the Eleventh and Twelfth corresponding to Fourteenth and Fifteenth. Or the Twelfth and Thirteenth corresponding to Fourteenth and Fifteenth? Rebbi Ḥelbo said, the Thirteenth was a day of war¹⁴Esth. 9:1.. It proves for itself that it was not a day of comfort. Then one should not read on this day. One reads before and after, on the day one should not read¹⁵Excluding the 13th would be technically impossible. Cf. Meïri Megillah, ed. M. Herschler, pp. 14/15.? Or only the Ninth and the Tenth? Like the days, days close to the days. But if days close to the days, {maybe} only Sixteenth and Seventeenth? You cannot, for Rebbi Abbahu said in the name of Rebbi Eleazar: and it shall not pass by, one shall not impregnate¹¹The language is taken from calendar computation where “intercalation” is called “impregnation”. Here it means “changing the usual calendar data.”. [Rebbi Isaac bar Naḥman in the name of Samuel: and it shall not pass by, and one shall not let it pass.¹⁶Corrector’s addition from the earlier text, totally out of place since one speaks of predating, not postdating.]

It was stated in the name of Rebbi Nathan: The entire month is qualified for reading the scroll¹⁷For example a person going on a trip who probably will not have a scroll available to him on the days enumerated in the Mishnah can discharge his obligation by reading the scroll before his departure.. What is the reason? The month which for them was turned from sorrow to joy¹⁸Esth. 9:22.. Rebbi Ḥelbo said, but only up to the Fifteenth. As Rebbi Abbahu said in the name of Rebbi Eleazar: and it shall not pass by, one shall not impregnate¹¹The language is taken from calendar computation where “intercalation” is called “impregnation”. Here it means “changing the usual calendar data.”. Rebbi Isaac bar Naḥman in the name of Samuel: and it shall not pass by, and one shall not let it pass. That is what you are saying to read the scroll. But making a dinner¹⁹The obligatory dinner to celebrate Purim. one makes only on the Fourteenth and the Fifteenth; and one distributes [to the poor]²⁰A separate obligation to give to the poor, Esth. 9:22. only on the Fourteenth and the Fifteenth. The eyes of the poor are only directed to the Fourteenth and the Fifteenth²¹Babli 4b.. Then these should be for reading and those for the dinner? Rebbi Ḥelbo, Rebbi Ḥuna in the name of Rav: These days are remembered and executed²²Esth. 9:28.. Remembered by reading. And executed by dinner. This implies that the Scroll is given to be analyzed²³While in principle a text posterior to the Pentateuch cannot prescribe any new obligation, only testify to the practice of earlier generations in the interpretation of the law, an exception is made for the Esther scroll, whose prescriptions are considered divine and in which the story is repeated in Chapter 9 for legal interpretation only. Since Sadducees did not recognize Esther as a canonical book, this elevation of the scroll to Pentateuchal status must be considered an anti-Sadducee demonstration. Rebbi Ḥelbo, Rebbi Yasa in the name of Rebbi Eleazar: It is said here²⁴Esth. 9:30., words of peace and truth. And it is said there,²⁵Prov. 23:23. truth buy but do not sell²⁶It is permitted to pay for instruction in the Torah but forbidden to take money for teaching others. “Truth” in Proverbs always refers to the Torah.. It is like the truth of the Torah. This one needs ruling, that one needs ruling²⁷Torah verses, as well as a Torah scroll, may only be written on lines, if parchment or leather impressed into the material with a metal ruler, if on paper the latter must be lined. (Babli 16b.). This one is given to be analyzed, that one is given to be analyzed. Rebbi Jeremiah in the name of Rebbi Samuel bar Rav Isaac: The scroll which Samuel handed to David²⁸With the plan for the building of the Temple. is given to be analyzed. What is the reason? ²⁹⁸This disqualifies all Aramaic translations, even Targum Onkelos canonized in Babylonia.Everything in writing, that is the Masora. For the hand of the Eternal, that is the Holy Spirit. To me for understanding, from here that it is given to be analyzed. Rebbi Jeremiah asked, and why do we not say, the plan of everything was in spirit with him³⁰1Chr. 28:12.? Rebbi Mana said, what is בָר֨וּחַ֙? by the wind of his mouth³¹רוח may be interpreted as Divine inspiration only if indicated as such in the verse..

R. Shmuel b. Nahmani said: The verse says, “As the days on which the Jews had rest from their enemies” (Esther 9:22). “The days” [would have been enough.] “As the days” comes to include the eleventh and the twelfth.
