Talmud su II Samuele 18:14

MISHNAH: ²⁷⁰This Mishnah is somewhat extended in the Babli, very much enlarged in Tosephta 3:15–16. It is a direct continuation of the first sentence of the preceding Mishnah. Simson followed his eyes, therefore the Philistines pierced his eyes. Absalom beautified himself with his hair, therefore he was hung by his hair. Because he came to his father’s ten concubines, therefore ten lances²⁷¹Hebraized plural of Greek λόγχη “lance”. were put into him, as it was said²⁷²2S. 18:15.: “Ten squires, Joab’s weapons carriers, surrounded him.” And because he stole three steals²⁷³In Mishnah mss. of the Maimonides tradition: שֶׁגָּנַב שְׁלֹשָׁה לְבָבוֹת “he stole three minds”; “misleading” is called “stealing the heart” (Gen. 31:20). Cf. also Mekhilta dR. Ismael, Masekhta deŠirah, Chap. 6., his father’s opinion, the court’s opinion, and Israel’s opinion, therefore three staves were stuck into him, as it was said²⁷⁴2S. 18:14.: “He took three staves in his hand and stuck them into Absalom’s heart.”
