Jerusalem Talmud Peah

Rebbi Simeon ben Ioḥai stated: If a person was perfectly just all his days and at the end he rebelled, he lost all he worked for his entire life. What is the reason? (Ez. 33:18) “If a just person reverts from his justness and does mischief194His prior merit will not be counted..” Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish said, if he wonders about his earlier deeds. If a person was perfectly evil all his days and at the end he repents, the Holy One, praise to Him, receives him. What is the reason? (Ez. 33:27) “If a sinner returns from his wickedness195His prior wickedness will not be counted..” Rebbi Joḥanan said, not only that but all transgressions are counted as merits for him. What is the reason? (Ps. 45:9) “Myrrh, aloe, cassia, all your faithlessness196In the context of the verse, the word means “your clothes.” The Hebrew double root בגד “clothing-dealing treacherously” cannot be explained from cognate languages..” All faithless acts in which you were faithless towards Me are like myrrh, aloe, and cassia.
