민수기 16:26 탈무드 참조: Jerusalem Talmud Nedarim

HALAKHAH: “In addition, Rebbi Eliezer said, one finds an opening in changed circumstances,” etc. Rebbi Simon in the name of Rebbi Joshua ben Levi⁴²In the Babli, 64b, Rav Ḥisda: Rebbi Eliezer learned from Moses, to whom the Holy One, praise to Him, provided an opening by changed circumstances. The Holy One, praise to Him, said to him: If you had known that “all the men who want to kill you have died,” would you have vowed⁴³The background is in Tanḥuma Šemot 12,Tanḥuma Buber Šemot 11, on Ex. 2:21, quoted in the Babli 65a: “Moses swore that he would dwell with the man” deriving וַיּוֹאֵל from אלה “to swear”, not from יאל “to agree, to decide”. (The problem naturally is that the form וַיּוֹאֵל is qal if derived from יאל but hiph‘il if derived from אלה and would have to be translated “he (Reuel) made Moses swear to dwell with the man,” which should require a nota accusativi before “Moses”.} Since Moses swore in Midyan that he would stay there when he thought that he never could return to Egypt, he had to return there to have his vow dissolved.? But did they really die? Were they not Dathan and Abiram⁴⁴The identification of “the evil one” in Ex. 2:13 is in the Babli, 64b, and Tanḥuma Šemot 10; identifying all anonymous evildoers in Ex. and Num. with Dathan and Abiram who were called “evil ones” by Moses (Num.16:26).? Only, they became poor⁴⁵Therefore, nobody in government would listen to their calumnies. In the Babli, this is attributed to R. Simeon ben Laqish..
