Powtórzonego Prawa 33:27 Odniesienia do Talmudu: Jerusalem Talmud Chagigah, Jerusalem Talmud Makkot & Chagigah

HALAKHAH: “One does not explain sexual aberrations to three {persons},” etc. Rebbi Abba in the name of Rav Jehudah: This is Rebbi Aqiba’s, but following Rebbi Ismael⁶If there can be no public discussion about the rules concerning sexual aberrations, there can be no disagreement about these rules. This is acceptable following R. Aqiba who derives prohibition for both the active and the passive homosexual from Lev. 18:22, noting that the unvocalized verb can be read both in active and in passive voices (cf Sanhedrin 7:9, Note 176.) But R. Ismael who denies that Lev. 18:22 contains a prohibition of passive homosexuality does derive the prohibition from an intricate derivation involving verses which on the face of it do not describe deadly sins. Therefore he must invite public discussion of his position. The Babli 11b considers the Mishnah as a moral precept, not an enforceable ruling.? Since Rebbi Ismael states warnings to the actors⁷Sanhedrin 7:9, Notes 177–181; Babli Sanhedrin 54b.. Since Rebbi Immi was sitting and stating a warning for active homosexual and a warning for the passive homosexual, this implies that practice follows Rebbi Ismael⁸The Amora was openly teaching R. Ismael’s opinion as authoritative; the first clause in Mishnah 1 is not accepted..

“Nor the Creation to two.” Rebbi Abba in the name of Rav Jehudah: This is Rebbi Aqiba’s, but following Rebbi Ismael one investigates what happened. Since Rebbi Jehudah bar Pazi was sitting and explaining that originally the world was water in water; this implies that practice follows Rebbi Ismael. Rebbi Jehudah bar Pazi was preaching⁹The original meaning of דרש “to investigate” has been changed into the later Amoraic-Medieval “to preach” and the interpretation of the Mishnah changed accordingly.: Originally the world was water in water. What is the reason? God’s wind was hovering over the water¹⁰Gen. 1:2.. Then He turned it into snow, He throws his ice like small breads¹¹Ps. 147:17.. Then He turned it into land, for He will tell the snow, be land¹²Job 37:6.. And the land stands on water, to Him Who spreads the earth over the water¹³Ps. 136:6. Babli 12b.. And the water stands on mountains, on mountains shall the water stand¹⁴Ps. 104:6.. And the mountains stand on wind, behold the Maker of mountains and Creator of wind¹⁵Am. 4:13.. And the wind depends on storm, the wind storm executes His word¹⁶Ps. 148:3. And the Holy One, praise to Him, turned storm into a kind of amulet and hung it on His arm, as it is said, and below eternal arms¹⁷Deut. 33:27..

HALAKHAH: ⁶⁵This Halakhah is preserved only in G, but it is quoted in the name of the Yerushalmi in the book האמונה והבטחון “Faith and Trust” from the cabbalistic circle of Nachmanides [Chapter 15; in H. D. Chavel’s edition of The Works of Nachmanides, vol. 2 (Jerusalem 1964) p.399.] Parallel texts are in Gen. rabba 68(10), copied in Yalqut Shimony 117, and Pesiqta rabbati Ten Commandments (ed. Ish-Shalom p. 104b). It is of great theological significance in that it proclaims not only God’s Omnipresence but also His Existence outside of space and time and the possibility of the simultaneous existence of an infinity of different worlds.[“Rebbi Ḥananiah ben Aqashiah says: The Holy One,praise to Him,wanted etc.” Why does one use a substitute name for the Name of the Holy One, praise to Him, and calls Him Place? To say that He is the Place of the world but the world is not His place. ⁶⁶In Gen. rabba and Pesiqta, they are credited with the statement of the preceding paragraph. “Faith and Trust” quotes the text here. Rebbi Ḥuna in the name of Rebbi Immi: It is written⁶⁷Deut. 33:27. In Gen. rabba and Pesiqta quoted by R. Isaac., dwelling is the Primordial God, to say that He is the dwelling of the world but the world is not His dwelling. Rebbi Yose ben Ḥalaphta said, it is written: ⁶⁸Ex. 33:21. In Gen. rabba and Pesiqta quoted by R. Huna, R. Immi but Yalqut R. Yose ben Halafta.The Eternal said, there is a place with Me; to say that He is the Place of the world but the world is not His place. Rebbi Isaac said, it is written⁶⁹Ps. 68:18. In Gen. rabba quoted by R. Isaac; anonymous in Pesiqta, missing in Yalqut. In Emunah weBittahon R. [ ] in the name of R. Jacob.: The Eternal is there, Sinai in the Holy. Would “the Holy in Sinai” not have been more reasonable? To say that He is the Place of the world but the world is not His place. ⁷⁰In Gen. rabba in the name of R. Abba bar Yudan, in Pesiqta more elaborated, in the name of R. Yudan, anonymous in Yalqut. Rebbi Yudan said, [a parable of] a hero riding on a horse with his weapons hanging down at both sides. It is not that the horse puts up with the hero, but the hero puts up with the horse.
