Talmud su Deuteronomio 28:21

HALAKHAH: Rebbi Levi said, it is written⁵⁷Deut. 28:21.: The Eternal will stick to you the epidemic. {A parable} of a woman who sticks three loaves together⁵⁸A plague for which one fasts is a infectious disease.. How is this acted on? Is it not that larger it needs another rate⁵⁹Goes a town larger than that mentioned in the Mishnah by different rules both in the number of victims and in the number of days?? Let us hear it from the following: Even a city large as Antiochia, and there were brought out three dead persons during three consecutive days. This implies that larger it needs another rate⁶⁰The interpretation of this sentence depends on the interpretation of the expression “rate”. If this means “percentage” then instead of “needs” one has to read “does not need”. If it means “absolute numbers” then the text as it stands is correct. Since there is no corrector’s addition, the second interpretation is to be accepted.. The houses about which they spoke⁶¹In Mishnah 4; one fasts only for unforeseeable building collapses., healthy but not shaky. And similarly, young people but not old ones. It was stated: Diphtheria any; two by plague and one by diphtheria. Come and see, “diphtheria any” and you are saying so⁶²If one fasts for one deadly case of diphtheria (Tosephta 2:9), why the mention of two deaths by another communicable disease?? It is needed for the case that they blew the shofar about diphtheria and it went away and after that two died of a plague and one of diphtheria⁶³In the case of diphtheria, the requirement is waived that to declare an epidemic the causes of death must be the same infection..
