Талмуд к Ийова 2:2

Between both of them⁸⁶Ex. 22:10. it will never move from between them. If the one forcing the oath forces the oath lying, at the end it⁸⁹The oath will destroy him. will come over him. If the one swearing swears lying, at the end it will come over him. What is the reason? I shall take it out, oracle of the Eternal Sabaot, and it will come into the house of the thief and the house of him who swears falsely in My Name⁹⁰Sach. 5:5. “It” is the curse mentioned in v. 4., etc. Rebbi Samuel bar Naḥman said, destructive angels have no joints. What is the reason? From roving about the Earth and walking there⁹¹Job2:2, Satan’s answer. Having no joints at knees or ankles, he could never sit down. The order of topics is better in Lev. rabba6(1) where it is explained that the Satan has to move perpetually because he has no joints but the curse of a false oath comes and dwells at length in the house of the swearer.. But here, it will destroy its wood and its stones⁹⁰Sach. 5:5. “It” is the curse mentioned in v. 4.. Come and see, things which the fire will not burn, a vain oath will destroy. Rebbi Jonah said, about falsehood. Rebbi Yose said, even on truth. ⁹²The Aramaic of the following paragraph shows that this is a sermon, rather than a halakhic discussion. In slightly different form Lev. rabba6(1).Ḥaggai was preaching following Rebbi Yose. There was a case about a woman who went to knead dough with another and had two denarii bound into the seam of her head cover. These fell out and were rolled into a loaf. She went back to he house, wanted them and did not find them. She returned to her and said to her, give me the two denarii which fell from me in your house. She told her, I do not know. If she⁹³As always in rabbinic literature, in relating bad things about oneself one always used the third person (“this man, this woman”) instead of the first. The woman must have used an oath formula to be punished for vain oaths. would know of it, she should bury her son. She buried him. When they returned from his grave, she heard a voice saying, if she had not known about them she would not have buried him. She said, if this woman⁹³As always in rabbinic literature, in relating bad things about oneself one always used the third person (“this man, this woman”) instead of the first. The woman must have used an oath formula to be punished for vain oaths. knows about them, she should bury her other son. She buried him. They came to console her and cut one loaf and found two denarii rolled into the loaf. This says, whether innocent or guilty, never swear an oath⁹⁴It is better to pay, or not to sue and not collect money, than force or swear any oath..
