Rebbi Joḥanan said, at the red field¹⁵²He explains the reading of the masoretic text, פַּס דַּמִּים “a red strip.”. But Rebbi Samuel said, from there the money stopped.¹⁵³He reads אֶפֶס דָּמִים “no money” in rabbinic Hebrew, to explain that the king does not pay for damage he inflicts on private property in the course of his activities on behalf of the people in war or peace.

In the entire section, the verses are not quoted exactly.¹⁵⁴2S. 23:11., etc. Rebbi Jacob from Kefar Ḥanan said, they were lentils but a kernel was as good as a barley grain. Rebbi Levi said, this describes the Philistines who came straight as barley and went away low as lentils, as one verse says, there was a field full of barley¹⁵¹1Chr. 11:13. In the entire section, the verses are not quoted exactly., and one said, full of lentils¹⁵⁴2S. 23:11.. Rebbi Samuel bar Naḥman said, it was one year but concerning two fields, one of barley and one of lentils. It was obvious to him that he might destroy it and pay for the damage. Perhaps it was obvious to him¹⁵⁵To David, who would be incapable of doing anything unlawful. The Mishnah does not address the problem of indemnity for the exercise of the power of eminent domain. that he might destroy it and not pay for the damage? Which one might he destroy and for which one would he have to pay? For the one of lentils or the one of barley? For the one of lentils grows human food, the one of barley animal feed. The one of lentils will not be obligated for ḥallah¹⁵⁶The heave required to be taken from bread dough; cf. Introduction to Tractate Hallah., barley will be obligated for ḥallah. The ˋomer comes from barley¹⁵⁷The flour offering permitting the use of new grain. Lev. 23:9–14.; ˋomer cannot be brought from lentils. But the rabbis said, it was one field and two years. Does one infer from last year, or does one not infer from one year to the next? They stood up in the property and saved it¹⁵⁸1Chr. 11:14.. One verse says, they saved it, and one says, he saved it¹⁵⁹2S. 23:12.. This shows that he returned it to its owner and it was dear to him as if it had been a field of saffron.

It is written: David had a desire and said, who would give me to drink from the cistern of Bethlehem¹⁶⁰2S. 23:15–16; 1Chr. 11:17–18., etc. Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Abba said, he questioned practice¹⁶¹One of the rules of the Mishnah. to ask the opinion of the Sages of a mythical Bethlehem. Rabbinic interpretation systematically reduces David to a rabbi, negates all qualities of a warrior, and tries to eliminate all memories of a warlike past.. Three broke through. Why three? For no practice can be elucidated by less than three [opinions]. But David refused to drink. David did not want that the practice would be attached to his name¹⁶²Since the rules of the Mishnah are all anonymous.. He poured it out for the Eternal, he fixed it as a tractate for all generations, “he breaches fences on his way.”

The following [occurrences of lamed-alef (not)] which have to be read as lamed-waw (to, by, has) are found in the Prophets and Hagiographa: multiply;³²The introductory word of 1 Sam. 2, 3 in which occurs the phrase and by Him are actions weighed according to the ḳerë, but the kethib reads ‘and actions are not weighed’. Hushai;³³i.e. 2 Sam. 16, 18, where the ḳerë is his will I be and the kethib ‘I will not be’. said;³⁴i.e. 2 Kings 8, 10. Here the ḳerë is say unto him, thou shalt surely recover, and the kethib ‘say, thou shalt not surely recover’. thou hast multiplied;³⁵i.e. Isa. 9, 2.The ḳerë is Thou hast increased their joy, and the kethib ‘Thou hast not increased joy’. their affliction;³⁶i.e. Isa. 63, 9. The ḳerë is In all their affliction He was afflicted (lit. there was affliction to Him) and the kethib ‘in all their affliction He was not an adversary’. He slay me;³⁷i.e. Job 13, 15. The ḳerë is yet will I trust Him, the kethib ‘I have nothing to hope for’. I keep silence;³⁸i.e. Job 41, 4. The ḳerë is would I keep silence (to him), the kethib ‘I would not keep silence’. as the (wandering) sparrow;³⁹i.e. Prov. 26, 2. The ḳerë is shall come home (to him), the kethib ‘shall not come home’. his friends;⁴⁰i.e. Prov. 19, 7. The ḳerë is they turn against him, the kethib ‘they do not turn’. Zerubbabel;⁴¹i.e. Ezra 4, 2, The ḳerë is we do sacrifice unto Him, the kethib ‘we do not sacrifice’. were fashioned;⁴²i.e. Ps. 139, 16. The ḳerë is ‘and for it there was one among them’, the kethib when as yet there was none of them. In this instance E.V. follows the kethib. know ye;⁴³i.e. Ps. 100, 3. The ḳerë is we are His, the kethib ‘and not we (have made) ourselves’. be gathered;⁴⁴i.e. Isa. 49, 5. The ḳerë is be gathered unto Him, the kethib ‘be not gathered’. name,⁴⁵i.e. 1 Chron. 11, 20. The ḳerë is and had a name among the three, the kethib ‘and not a name among the three’. [this last also] in the corresponding passage.⁴⁶viz. in 2 Sam. 23, 18. This reading is suggested by N.Y. to replace that of V ‘and his word’ which is meaningless. In this verse, however, lamed-waw is both written and read. [More probably ודבר in V is a misreading of daleth signifying ‘four’ which should be attached to the beginning of the next Rule.] [38a]

Most of the verses quoted in these paragraphs are also quoted in the Babli, 21b. Cf. also Cant. rabba 1(10). It is written¹⁹³Eccl. 2:2.: To amusement I said, be praised. The Holy One, praise to him, said to Solomon: What is this crown on your head? Descend from My throne! Rebbi Yose ben Ḥanina said, at that moment an angel came down looking like Solomon, removed him from his throne, and sat in his stead. He was going around in synagogues and houses of study, saying I am Ecclesiastes, I used to be king over Israel in Jerusalem¹⁹⁴Eccl. 1:12.. They were telling him, the king sits on his chair of honor¹⁹⁵Latin bisellium; cf. Löw in Krauss’s Lehnwörter. and you say, I am Ecclesiastes? They hit him with a stick and brought a dish of split beans before him. At that moment, he said: that is my part¹⁹⁶Eccl. 2:10.. Some say, a staff. Others say, a rod. Others say, with his belt. ¹⁹⁷Cant. r. ad 5:10, Lev. r. 19(2), Ex. r. 6(1). Solomon is accused of wanting to remove the imperative from Deut. 17:17. Who had accused him? Rebbi Joshua ben Levi said, י in יַרְבֶּה¹⁶⁰2S. 23:15–16; 1Chr. 11:17–18. accused him. Rebbi Simeon ben Ioḥai stated: The book Deuteronomy ascended, bowed down before the Holy One, praise to Him, and said to Him: Master of the Universe, You wrote in Your Torah that any disposition¹⁹⁸Greek διαθήκη “will, disposition”. which is partially invalid is totally invalid, and now Solomon wants to uproot a י from me! The Holy One, praise to Him, said to it: Solomon and a thousand like him will disappear but nothing from you will disappear.
