잠언 12:10의 탈무드
יוֹדֵ֣עַ צַ֭דִּיק נֶ֣פֶשׁ בְּהֶמְתּ֑וֹ וְֽרַחֲמֵ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים אַכְזָרִֽי׃
의인은 그 육축의 생명을 돌아보나 악인의 긍휼은 잔인이니라
Tractate Kallah Rabbati
BARAITHA. He who looks to the earnings of his ass or to the earnings of his wife120Pes. loc. cit. (Sonc. ed., p. 245). does not see a sign of blessing.
GEMARA. What is the reason? Because it is written, A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast:121Prov. 12, 10. a beast does regard the life of a righteous man. ‘The earnings of his wife’: for it is written, [And there will be goat’s milk enough] for thy food, for the food of thy household; and maintenance for thy maidens.122ibid. XXVII, 27. The Torah teaches that your food comes before the food of your household,123In Rabbinic phraseology the Biblical term ‘house’ is equated with one’s wife; cf. Yoma 2a (Sonc. ed., p. 1). and then comes the food of your maidens. Raba said: Whoever compels his wife or his household to work, the evil inclination departs from them;124Being fully occupied, they will have no time to indulge in wrong. as it is stated, The wicked flee when no man pursueth; but the righteous are secure as a young lion.125Prov. 28, 1. This conforms to what we learnt:126Keth. 59b (Sonc. ed., p. 353). Rabban Simeon b. Gamaliel said: If a man forbade his wife under a vow to do any work, he must divorce her and give her her kethubah, because idleness leads to idiocy.
