Talmud sobre Números 25:10

Should people strive²⁷So GRA; V ‘honour’. with you, whether it be in the House of Study or at a social gathering,²⁸lit. ‘in a sitting [for study] or in a reclining [at a meal]’. make peace with them, so that when you leave them²⁹lit. ‘on your return [home]’. they may speak well of you, as was spoken of Phinehas the son of Eleazar.³⁰Cf. Num. 25, 10-13. The translation follows GRA instead of V’s senseless ‘so that he may come and rest upon your bed’. And so used R. Eleazar Ha-Ḳappar to say: Love peace and hate dissension. Great is peace, for even if [Israel] were to practise idolatry but maintained peace among themselves, the Divine Presence, as it were, would be unable to do them harm, as it is stated, Ephraim is joined to idols; let him alone.³¹Hos. 4, 17. Cf. Midrash Rabbah, Num., XI, 7 (Sonc. ed., p. 441) where the reading is: ‘The Holy One, blessed be He, as it were, says: Satan shall not touch them’. In Midrash Rabbah, Gen., XXXVIII, 6 (Sonc. ed., p. 306) the version is: ‘The Holy One, blessed be He, says: I have no dominion over them’. But if there is dissension between them, what is stated of them? Their heart is divided; now shall they bear their guilt.³²Hos. 10, 2.
A house in which is dissension will ultimately be destroyed. A Synagogue [in which is dissension] will ultimately be turned into a place of idolatry.³³So GRA; cf. Yeb. 96b (Sonc. ed., p. 660). V reads: ‘The Sages said: When there is dissension in a Synagogue it will be cut in pieces’. If two scholars reside in the same city who have set up separate Courts of Law and dissension occurs between them, they will ultimately die [prematurely].³⁴Cf. Soṭah 49a (Sonc. ed., p. 263). Abba Saul said: Dissension between separate Courts of Law is the ruination of the world.
