¹¹⁷Several passages in this paragraph are truncated; refer to the Qiddušin text.The king said, I shall give¹¹⁰2S. 21:6.. The king took the two sons of Riṣpah bat Ayah¹¹⁸2S. 21:8.. Michal, Saul’s daughter, did not have a child¹¹⁹2S. 6:23., and you say so? Say now that they were sons of Merab but Michal raised them, so they were named after her. The king gave them into the hand of the Gibeonites who hanged them on the mountain before the Eternal¹²⁰2S. 21:9.. All seven is written defective of one letter. That refers to Mephiboshet, for whom David prayed and whom the altar received. He told them, I let them pass by the altar and anyone whom the altar receives will be his, because of Mephiboshet who was great in Torah. He let him pass by the altar, which received him. Rebbi Avin said, I shall call to the Most High God, to the Power Who has the ultimate decision over me¹²¹Ps. 57:3.. For the Holy One, praise to Him, agreed with David. They were killed on the day of harvest …at the start of the barley harvest¹²⁰2S. 21:9.. Riṣpah bat Ayah took a garment and laid it out on the rock¹²²2S. 21:10.. What means on the rock? Rebbi Hoshaia said, she was reciting: The rock, perfect is His action¹²³Deut. 32:4.. Rebbi Abba bar Zamina in the name of Rebbi Hoshaia: Sanctification of the Name is greater than desecration of the Name. Referring to sanctification of the Name it is written: Do not leave his corpse overnight⁶⁷Deut. 21:23.. But referring to desecration of the Name it is written that they were left hanging until water was poured on them¹²⁰2S. 21:9.. This teaches that they were hanging from the sixteenth of Nisan to the seventeenth of Marḥeshwan. The passers-by were saying: How did these people sin that the rules of justice were changed for them? They were answered: Because these had attacked cursed proselytes. Is that not an argument de minore ad majus? Since even for those who did not convert for the sake of Heaven, the Eternal avenged their blood; if one would convert for the sake of Heaven not so much more? Many converts were converted at that time; that is what is written¹²⁴2Chr. 2:16–17.: Solomon counted all proselytes … and appointed from them 70’000 carriers, etc.
