MISHNAH: If somebody buys a domestic animal for a well-being offering⁹²This is the main purpose of bringing Second Tithe money to Jerusalem, to buy there animals to eat “before the Eternal, your God” (Deut. 14:26). Most of the well-being offering is consumed by the family of the donor. or a wild animal⁹³Wild animals, from the list Deut. 14:5, can never become sacrifices and are intrinsically profane. They are mentioned here only because of Mishnah 4. for meat of desire⁹⁴The biblical expression (Deut. 11:15) for profane meat slaughtered outside the holy precinct., the hide becomes profane even though it may be worth more than the meat⁹⁵The hide, as part of the live animal, has been paid for by tithe money. After the meat has been consumed according to the rules of tithe money, the hide may be used or sold as fully profane. The Halakhah will restrict this to non-professional transactions.. [If he buys] sealed wine jugs at a place where jugs usually are sold sealed⁹⁶Wine is not usually sold from the barrel so that the jug would be an intrinsic part of the deal., the pitcher becomes profane. The shells of walnuts and almonds become profane⁹⁷And may be used as fuel or for tanning.. Afterwine before it fermented cannot be bought with tithe money⁹⁸It is water which may not be bought with tithe money, Mishnah 5.; after it fermented it may be bought with tithe money.
If somebody buys a wild animal for a well-being offering⁹⁹A wild animal can never be a sacrifice. Since the animal cannot be eaten in the way it was intended, the hide cannot lose its status of tithe money. If the hide is sold, the proceeds are still tithe money and must be spent on food in Jerusalem. or a domestic animal for meat of desire¹⁰⁰The Halakhah will explain that domestic animals bought with tithe money must be used as sacrifices., the hide does not become profane. [If he buys] open wine jugs or sealed ones at a place where wine usually is sold from the barrel, the pitcher does not become profane. [If he buys] baskets of figs and baskets of grapes sold with the vessel, the price money of the vessel does not become profane¹⁰¹In the last two cases, the buyer will be charged separately for pitcher or basket. Since these are not edible, they should be paid for with non-tithe money..

Abba bar Rav Huna said, one who drank [wine] should not pray but if he did pray, his prayer is a supplication. A drunk should not pray but if he did pray, his prayer is blasphemy. What is one who drank [wine]? Someone who drank a quartarius¹⁶⁷A quarter of a log, cf. Berakhot, Chapter 3, Note 227. In the Rome ms: “Even if he drank less than a quartarius.”; a drunk is one who drank more. There¹⁶⁸In Babylonia., it is said if he cannot speak before a king. Rebbi Zeïra asked before Rebbi Assi: May a drunk recite Grace? He said to him (Deut. 11:15): “When you will eat and be satiated, then you must praise”, even if you are sleepy. The question is only, may he recite the Shema‘? Abba bar Avin¹⁶⁹He might be identical with Rebbi Abba bar Avina, a Babylonian of the second generation who immigrated into Galilee and was ordained there. said, a pious person asked Elijah, may he be remembered for the good, may a naked person recite the Shema‘? He said to him (Deut. 23:15): “He should not see in you a thing of turpitude,” a word of turpitude. Ḥizqiah stated: both¹⁷⁰The argument of Elijah applies in both cases. for reciting [Grace] and reading [the Shema‘].

On the Temple service. How so? While the Holy Temple was still standing, the land was blessed for its inhabitants and rains fell at the proper time, as it says (Deuteronomy 11:13–14), “To love the Eternal your God and to serve Him with all your heart and all your soul, and I will give you rain in your land in season, the early rain and the late…and I will give grass to your fields for your animals.” And when the Temple is not standing, the land is not blessed for its inhabitants and the rains do not come in season, as it says (Deuteronomy 11:16–17), “Guard yourselves from your heart’s temptation…and He will shut up the heavens and there will be no rain.” And so it says (Haggai 2:15–16), “Take note, from this day and beforehand, before any stone had been placed on a stone in the House of the Eternal, if one came to a heap of wheat of twenty measures, it would yield only ten; and if one came to the wine barrel to skim off fifty measures, the press would yield only twenty.” Why doesn’t it say also for the wine barrel, twenty and then ten, just as it does for the wheat, twenty and then ten? Because the wine barrel is a more exalted symbol than the wheat. This teaches you that when the wine is cursed, there is a bad sign upon the whole year. Israel said before the Holy Blessed One: Master of the World! Why do you do this to us? A holy spirit answered them (Haggai 1:9), “You came for a lot, but there is only a little…because My House is destroyed, but you all run to your own houses.” And if you would perform the Temple services, I would bless you as I once did, as it says (Haggai 2:18–19), “Take note…from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day the foundation was laid for the House of the Eternal…is the seed yet in the granary? And have the grape, and the fig, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree yet borne fruit? From that day I will send blessing.” This teaches you that there is no service dearer to the Holy Blessed One than the service of the Holy Temple.
