列王紀上 3:23的引用註釋

Another meaning of the word לאמור may be related to something we learned in Sanhedrin there and which is reflected in a ruling by Maimonides in chapter 21 of his treatise Hilchot Sanhedrin. Here is what he writes: "The judge must listen to the arguments of both litigants and repeat them as it is written in Kings I 3,23: 'the king said this woman says: "my son is alive and your son is dead," whereas this woman says: "my son is alive and your son is dead."' [The verse proves that Solomon himself repeated the arguments of both litigants. Ed.] This is what Moses alluded to when he said לאמור, i.e. that the judges themselves have to repeat the arguments of the litigants. The words לאמור שמוע are to be read together and mean that the judge has to articulate what he has heard from the litigants.
