רְאֵה֙ זֶ֣ה מָצָ֔אתִי אָמְרָ֖ה קֹהֶ֑לֶת אַחַ֥ת לְאַחַ֖ת לִמְצֹ֥א חֶשְׁבּֽוֹן׃

Ecco, ho trovato questo, dice Koheleth, aggiungendo una cosa all'altra, per scoprire l'account;

Jerusalem Talmud Sotah

HALAKHAH: “By the measure a person measures one measures him,” etc. 248Tosephta 3:1, Babli 8b. Midrash Tehillim 81(2), Num. rabba 9(23). It was stated in the name of Rebbi Meïr: By the measure a person measures one measures him249The maxim “measure for measure” is found many times; e. g. Babli Šabbat 105b, Megillah 12b, Sanhedrin 90a, Sifry Num. 106 (cf. Halakhah 9), Mekhilta dR. Ismael (ed. Horovitz-Rabin) pp. 78,81,131; Gen. rabba 9(13), Ex. rabba 25(13) [shortened 9(9)]; Tanḥuma Noaḥ 13, Wa’era 14, Bešallaḥ 2,4, Tazria‘ 6; and very frequently in the Gaonic literature.. What is the reason? בְּסַאסְּאָה.2501s. 27:8., seah for seah. Not only a seah, from where a three-qab251A seah is a Roman urna, 12.85 1. The seah contains 6 qab (κάβος); a terqab is half a seah (Gaonic Commentary to Mishnah Kelim 12:3; misinterpreted as תְּרֵיקָב “two qab” in Graetz, Geschichte der Judäer4 vol. 3, p. 443.), half a three-qab, half a qab, a quarter [qab], a toman252A toman is 1/8 qab, identical to a Roman hemina, Greek ἡμίνα, ½sextarius., half a toman, or an ukla253In the Babli עוכלא; a quarter toman, a Roman acetabulum, 6.6 cl. Qalir (Silluq Šabbat Šeqalim) calls it כלה and reports that it is slightly less than a hundredth of a seah.? The verse says, “for all that is in a seah, breaks the seah noisily2541s. 9:4.;” he added many seot here. Not only things that can be measured, from where that small coins add up to a large bill? The verse says, “one to one, to find the bill.255Eccl. 7:27. This is the end of the Tosephta and the parallel in the Babli.” It happens in the world that a person stumbles in a sin for which one would be punished by death by the hands of Heaven. His ox dies, his hen is lost, his flask breaks, and he hurts his finger, by that the bill is paid in full. Another explanation: One is filled into the next and the bill is established. And what is the fulfillment of the bill? Once256This explanation is the opposite of the first, that many small sins add up to one huge bill presented to a man by the Heavenly court..
