Talmud su Levitico 21:12

MISHNAH: The High Priest judges and one judges him; he testifies and one testifies against him¹These statements are only necessary as contrast to the rules for the king, to whom they do not apply (Mishnah 3).. He gives ḥalîṣah and one gives ḥalîṣah to his wife, and one marries his wife in levirate marriage²If his brother dies childless, he gives halîsah to his sister-in-law, which will be allowed to marry anybody but a Cohen. If he dies childless, any brother not appointed High Priest in his stead may marry his widow.. But he may not marry in levirate marriage since a widow is forbidden to him.³Lev. 21:14. If a family member of his dies, he cannot follow the bier but if they⁴The people carrying the bier. The High Priest may never be seen together with them. are unseen he can be seen; if they are seen he must be unseen. He leaves with them up to the city gate, the words of Rebbi Meïr; Rebbi Jehudah said, he does not leave the Temple since it is said: The Sanctuary he shall not leave⁵Lev. 21:12..

¹⁴There exists a copy of this paragraph in Horaiot 3:2 (ה). It is missing in the Yerushalmi reproduced in the editio princeps of the Babli. A different version is in Midrash Samuel 7(5). Rebbi Eleazar said, if a High Priest sinned, one whips him but does not remove him from his elevated status¹³This is unknown to the Babli.. Rebbi Mana said, it is written⁵Lev. 21:12.: For the crown of his God’s ointment is on him, I am the Eternal; if one could compare it, just as I am in My Sanctity, so Aaron is in his sanctity¹⁵The two other sources read: I in My Greatness, also Aaron in his greatness. R. Abun said (Lev. 21:8), holy he shall be to you, if one could compare it, as I Am in My Holiness, so Aaron is in his holiness.. Rebbi Ḥanina the scribe, Rebbi Aḥa in the name of Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish: if a High Priest sinned, one whips him¹⁶In the two other sources: by a court of three judges. The sequel requires this text.. If you would say by 23, his elevation would be his degradation¹⁷Since so many people would sit in judgment over him.. And Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish said, if a patriarch sinned, one whips him by a court of three [judges]. Does one return him? Rebbi Haggai said, by Moses, if one would return him, he would kill them. Rebbi Jehudah the Prince¹⁸R. Jehudah II. heard this and became angry. He sent Goths¹⁹Following the reading of the other two sources. Krauss conjectures that the inserted נ indicates nasal pronunciation, but by the evidence of the other two sources גנתון instead of גותיין seems to be a scribal error. [Instead of Goths they might have been Gaetuli, a people from Northwestern Africa (E. G.).] to catch Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish. They beat him. He fled to Magdala, some say to Kefar Ḥiṭṭim²⁰Magdala is on Lake Genezareth, Kefar Hittim in the hills overlooking Tiberias.. The next day, Rebbi Joḥanan went to the assembly hall, when Rebbi Jehudah the Prince also went to the assembly hall. He²¹R. Jehudah the Prince. said to him, why is the master not²²Translated following G. telling us words of instruction? He²³R. Johanan. started clapping with one hand. He²¹R. Jehudah the Prince. asked, does one clap with one? He²³R. Johanan. answered him, no, but without ben Laqish there is nothing²⁴Following the text of the other two sources. The text of the Leiden ms. is unintelligible.. He²¹R. Jehudah the Prince. told him, I shall free him. He²³R. Johanan. said to him, in Magdala. He²¹R. Jehudah the Prince. told him, tomorrow I and you will go out to meet him. Rebbi Joḥanan sent to Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish, prepare²⁵Translated following G. The text of the other two sources, “get rich”, does not make much sense. for yourself some words of instruction since the Patriarch will go out to meet you. He went out to meet them and said, your example is similar to that of your Creator. For when the Merciful went to liberate Israel [from Egypt]²⁶Added from the other two sources., He sent neither messenger nor angel but He went Himself, as is written: I shall pass through the Land of Egypt²⁷Ex. 12:12., He and all His Court²⁸Translated following Eliahu Fulda and H. L. Fleischer in Levy’s Dictionary. A similar explanation of the verse is found in the Passover Haggadah (Mekhilta dR.Ismael, ed. Horovitz-Rabin, p. 23; cf. H. Guggenheimer, The Scholar’s Haggadah pp. 298–299.)
Here ends the Geniza fragment. The text in Horaiot has additions both at this point and at the end of the paragraph which, while relevant, in the absence of a confirming Genizah text cannot be added here.. He asked him, why did you say these things²⁹About whipping the Patriarch.? He told him, what are you thinking? That for fear of you I would refrain from the teachings of the Merciful? As Rebbi Samuel ben Rav Isaac said, No my sons, because the reputation is not good³⁰1S. 2:24. The explanation of the verse is missing; it is given in Horaiot. The verse about the misdeeds of Eli’s sons ends, מַעֲבִיריִם עַם יי [the information]spread about by the Eternal’s people, which he interprets as being removed by the Eternal’s people, implying that the High Priest has to be removed if he sins..

³⁹Tosephta Zevahim 11:3.“The High Priest sacrifices while in deep⁴⁰“Deep sorrow” is the period between the death of a close relative and his burial. This is a period of biblically mandated mourning in which consumption of sanctified food is forbidden, Deut. 26:14. A simple priest, who is required to defile himself for the burial of a close relative, automatically is barred from the holy precinct until he is purified from the impurity of the dead. The High Priest is prohibited from defiling himself and from leaving the holy precinct (Lev. 21:12). The question remains, what is his status on that day? sorrow but does not eat, the words of Rebbi Meïr; Rebbi Jehudah says, the entire day⁴¹Everybody agrees that if a High Priest is engaged in Divine Service when he is informed of the death of a close relative, he finishes his task. R. Simeon requires that upon completion he leave immediately; if he was informed while idle he also must leave immediately. R. Meïr holds that if he was in the precinct, he can start sacrificing even after being informed but then has to leave; if he was outside he cannot enter. R. Jehudah does not require him to leave.. Rebbi Simeon says, he completely finishes the service he is engaged in and then leaves.” Between Rebbi Meïr and Rebbi Simeon there is one [difference], between Rebbi Jehudah and Rebbi Simeon there is one [difference]⁴²For R. Jehudah, he does not have to leave after finishing his task. In fact, there are two differences since for R. Jehudah he is permitted to start after being informed of the death, but not for R. Simeon.. Between Rebbi Meïr and Rebbi Jehudah is entering⁴³Whether he has to leave after finishing. The verse seems to support R. Jehudah, Lev. 21:12: The holy precinct he may not leave.. Rebbi Jacob ben Dositheos: interruption is between them. Rebbi Meïr says, if he was inside, he leaves; if he was outside, he did [not]⁴⁴Reading from Horaiot. enter. Rebbi Jehudah says, if he was inside, he enters⁴⁵If he was in the Temple precinct, he may start serving; if he was outside, he may not enter, since Lev. 21:12 does not apply to his situation.; if he was outside, he did not enter. Rebbi Simeon says, he completely finishes the service he is engaged in and then leaves. Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun in the name of Rav Huna: a baraita is from Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish⁴⁶In Horaiot: R. Simeon. The name tradition here is quite corrupt. R. Yose bar Abun of the last generation of Galilean Amoraïm was a student of R. Jacob bar Dositheos. Also he cannot speak in the name of the second generation Babylonian Rav Huna; one has to read Rebbi Huna against both mss. sources. R. Simeon ben Laqish cannot formulate a baraita: neither baraita nor Mishnah address R. Simeon’s opinion.: ⁴⁷A similar text is in Sifra Emor Parashah 2(8).The Sanctuary he shall not leave, he may not leave with them, but he may leave after them. If they⁴The people carrying the bier. The High Priest may never be seen together with them. are unseen he can be seen; he leaves with them up to the city gate, the words of Rebbi Meïr; Rebbi Jehudah said, he does not leave the Temple since it is said: The Sanctuary he shall not leave⁵Lev. 21:12.. If he left, he may not return.”
