민수기 6:13의 Halakhah

That is that He commanded us to shave the nazarite's head and to bring his sacrifices at the culmination of his nazariteship. And the language of the [Sifra] (Sifra, Metzora, Chapter 2:6) is, "Three shave, and their shaving is a commandment: The nazarite; the metsora; and the Levites." However the shaving of the Levites was in the [Sinai] desert, and not for [all] generations, whereas the shaving of the metsora and the nazarite is practiced for [all] generations. And it is explained that there are two shavings for the nazarite, a shaving of impurity and a shaving of purity. And that is His saying, "on the day that his term as nazarite is completed" (Numbers 6:13). And it is inappropriate to count the two shaving as two commandments. For the shaving of impurity is one of the laws of the commandment of nazariteship. For his commandment is to grow his hair untrimmed, in purity - as that verse explained and taught about this. So if his nazariteship becomes impure, he shaves and brings a sacrifice; and then he returns to growing it untrimmed in holiness - as at the beginning - for the number of days that he obligated himself. It is like the metsora that also has two shavings; yet that is one commandment, as I will explain in its place (Sefer HaMitzvot, Positive Commandments 111). And I will also explain the reason for our counting the shaving of the nazarite and the sacrifice, as one commandment; and the shaving of the metsora and his sacrifice, as two commandments. And the regulations of this commandment - meaning the shaving of the nazarite - have also already been explained in their place, in Tractate Nazir. (See Parashat Nasso; Mishneh Torah, Nazariteship 8.)

The commandment of shaving the nazirite and bringing his sacrifices: That the nazirite shave his hair and bring sacrifices when he completes his naziriteness, and so [too,] if he becomes impure; as it is stated (Numbers 6:13), "and on the day that his term as nazirite is completed, etc." and also (Numbers 6:9), "If a dead body dies upon him, etc." And they said in Sifra, Metzora, Chapter 2:6, "Three shave, and their shaving is a commandment - the nazirite, the leper (metsora), and the Levites." However the three are not equal in all of their [characteristics], as the shaving of the Levites was for its time in the wilderness and not practiced [by future] generations; but the shaving of the leper and the nazirite is a commandment that is practiced [by future] generations. And Rambam, may his memory be blessed, wrote (Sefer Ha Mitzvot LaRambam, Mitzvot Ase 93) that the two shavings of the nazirite - which are the shaving of impurity and the shaving of purification - are only fitting to be counted as one commandment; as the matter of the shaving of impurity is not a separate commandment at all, but rather one law of the laws of naziriteness. [That is] that the Scripture elucidated that if the nazirite becomes impure in the days of his being a nazirite, he must shave and bring a sacrifice and then he goes back to growing his locks in holiness for the days of naziriteness that he forbade to himself, like at the start. [It is] like the leper who also has two shavings and they are one commandment. And since it is not the essence of the commandment, but rather one law of its laws, it is not fitting to count it as a separate commandment - and as the Teacher, may his memory be blessed, elucidated in his Book of the Commandments in the Seventh Root. And in the Order of Zot Tehiyeh (Metsora), I have also written in the name of the Teacher, may his memory be blessed, the reason for our counting the shaving of the nazirite and his sacrifices as one commandment, and the shaving of the leper and his sacrifices as two commandments. And you will see it elucidated there, if you want to study [it].
