Talmud for Nazir 2:9

הֲרֵינִי נָזִיר, וְנָזִיר כְּשֶׁיִּהְיֶה לִי בֵן, הִתְחִיל מוֹנֶה אֶת שֶׁלּוֹ וְאַחַר כָּךְ נוֹלַד לוֹ בֵן, מַשְׁלִים אֶת שֶׁלּוֹ וְאַחַר כָּךְ מוֹנֶה אֶת שֶׁל בְּנוֹ. הֲרֵינִי נָזִיר כְּשֶׁיִּהְיֶה לִי בֵן וְנָזִיר, הִתְחִיל מוֹנֶה אֶת שֶׁלּוֹ וְאַחַר כָּךְ נוֹלַד לוֹ בֵן, מַנִּיחַ אֶת שֶׁלּוֹ וּמוֹנֶה אֶת שֶׁל בְּנוֹ, וְאַחַר כָּךְ מַשְׁלִים אֶת שֶׁלּוֹ:

(If one said:) "I shall be a Nazirite," and ("I shall be) a Nazirite when I have a son," [taking upon himself Naziritism, unqualified, and another Naziritism when he has a son] — if he started counting his, and then a son were born to him, he completes his [first, and brings an offering], and then counts for that of his son. (If he said:) "I shall be a Nazirite when I have a son," and ("I shall be) a Nazirite," [taking upon himself first the Naziritism for his son, and beginning to count his own, after which a son were born to him, before the thirty days were completed], he suspends his own, counts for his son, and then completes his own. [For since he first took upon himself Naziritism for his son, as soon as he is born he must suspend his own and count for his son and then complete his own.]

Jerusalem Talmud Shevuot

HALAKHAH: “If both of them disavowed simultaneously,” etc. If they dedicated a sacrifice and said, we are going to disavowe in court. This is what Rebbi Ḥiyya stated, his sacrifice for the Eternal for his vow of nazir; that his vow of nazir precede his sacrifice, not that his sacrifice precede his vow of nazir49Num. 6:21. An obligatory sacrifice cannot be brought voluntarily. Therefore it cannot be dedicated before the obligation exists. The dedication cannot be undone (Lev. 27:9). Therefore, the original sacrifice has to be rededicated as voluntary offering and a new sacrifice be given as obligatory sacrifice. Nazir 2:9 (Note 118), 3:2 (Note 32), Tosephta Nazir 2:6, Num. rabba 10(42).. If they were sworn to out of court, dedicated a sacrifice and said, we are going to renege in court, how do you treat this? As if his sin did precede his sacrifice or since the are liable only in court as if their sacrifice did precede their sin50The question is not answered. Possibly it is a sequel to R. Jeremiah’s questions in the preceding Halakhah; cf. Terumot 10:11 Note 110.?
