Talmud do Przysłów 5:11

We do not take out [the dead on] a bier unless his head and the greater part of his body are there. R. Judah said: The spinal column and the skull constitute the greater part. It is related of the son of R. Ḥanina b. Teradion that he took to evil ways and robbers seized and killed him. After three days his swollen body was found; they placed him in a coffin,³⁴According to an emended reading. set him on a bier, took him into the city and paid him a eulogy³⁵For the parallel to this story, cf. Midrash Lamentations 3, 6 (Sonc. ed., p. 195). out of respect for his father and mother. His father quoted over him the verse, And thou moan, when thine end cometh, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, and say, ‘How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; neither have I hearkened to the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me! I was well nigh in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.’³⁶Prov. 5, 11-14. When he had finished he went back to the beginning of the verse. His mother quoted over him the verse, A foolish son is the vexation to his father, and bitterness to her that bore him.³⁷ibid. XVII, 25. His sister quoted over him the verse, Bread of falsehood is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.³⁸ibid. XX, 17.
