que desfaço os sinais dos profetas falsos, e torno loucos os adivinhos, que faço voltar para trás os sábios, e converto em loucura a sua ciência;
Gittin
He said to him, "If there was a barrel of honey with a serpent wrapped over it, would one not break the barrel for the sake of [getting rid] of the serpent?" He was silent. Rav Yosef - and some say, Rabbi Akiva - would read [this verse to be] about this (Isaiah 44:25), "He turns back the wise and renders their knowledge foolish." He should have said to him, "We take tongs and we take the serpent and kill him and leave the barrel."
Gittin
He said to him, "I am leaving and I will send someone else, but ask something that I can give you." He said to him, "Give me Yavneh and her Sages and the line of Rabban Gamliel and a cure to heal Rabbi Tsadok" Rav Yosef - and some say, Rabbi Akiva - would read [this verse to be] about this (Isaiah 44:25), "He turns back the wise and renders their knowledge foolish." He should have said to him, "Leave us this time."
