Talmud sobre Nazir 9:6

HALAKHAH: Paragraph. ⁵⁶Commentary on Mishnah 3. The text is taken from a discussion of the impurity of the dead, Nazir 9:2 Notes 79–87, Pesaḥim 7:7 34d l. 27. Therefore straw to be disregarded cannot be disregarded. Does the Mishnah not follow Rebbi Yose, since Rebbi Yose said, straw said to be disregarded is disregarded⁵⁷This refers to the rules of the tent-impurity caused by a corpse. A “tent” is any covered space in which there is at least one hand-breadth of space between the corpse and the roof. If the space is enclosed, the impurity is restricted to the “tent”; anything above the ceiling and below the floor of the “tent” is pure. But if the entire space between floor and ceiling is filled with matter, there is no tent and the impurity extends indefinitely above and below the tent space. This is known as “squeezed impurity” (Mishnah Ahilut 15:1,5,6). It is implied in Tosephta Ahilut 15:5 that R. Yose restricts “squeezed impurity” to material permanently deposited; but a storage of straw which is to be removed in the future is not counted as filler.? Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun in the name of Rav Ḥisda: It is everybody’s opinion. What Rebbi Yose said, if he mixed it with dust⁵⁸Not really “mixed with”, but “treated like,” as formulated in the Tosephta.. “There is straw which is treated like dust and dust which is treated like straw. Straw not to be removed is like dust; dust to be removed is like straw.⁵⁹Statement of R. Yose in Tosephta Ahilut 15:5; quoted in Eruvin 79a. “Straw” stands here for “material to be removed,” “dust” for “permanent filling.”” In the House of Rebbi Yannai they said: If he covered it with mats it is disregarded. Come and see: If he filled it with mats it is not disregarded⁶⁰Since the filling can easily be removed, the ditch still separates., if he covered it with mats it is disregarded⁶¹If a ditch is filled with any material, even straw, but this is covered with mats to create a floor from one side to the other, the courtyards become one and require one eruv. Šabbat 100a.. If he filled it with branches of date palms it is problematic⁶²No ruling is available in this case.. Rebbi Zeriqan, Rebbi Immi, in the name of Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish: Even thin sheets⁶³This translation is tentative; it follows the Pesaḥim text, reading רַק. Neither the text here רוֹק “spittle” nor the one in Nazir רֵיק “emptiness” are appropriate..

¹⁶⁴From here on, the text is also found in Nazir 9:2, Notes 58–94. From where about a doubtful case of a grave in the abyss¹⁶⁵Both for the person going to celebrate the Pesaḥ and the nazir who finished his term, the impurity caused by a doubtful case of a grave in the abyss is disregarded. In view of the central role of purity in everything connected with the Sanctuary, it is obvious that some biblical justification has to be found for the rule. In the case of Passover, the argument notes that Num. 9:9 could have stated that a person on a far trip was required to celebrate the Second Pesaḥ. The addition for you seems to be superfluous. It is interpreted to mean just as the road is open to the wanderer, so the impurity has to be in the open for the impure person. The same argument is in the Babli 81b.? Rebbi Jacob bar Aḥa in the name of the rabbis: Or on a far trip for you. What is in the open for you, including everything in the open. This excludes the case of a grave in the abyss which is not open. So far for the people celebrating Passover. From where the nazir? Rebbi Joḥanan in the name of Rebbi [Yannai]⁸⁷Reading of K.: If a person dies suddenly on him¹⁶⁶Num. 6:9.. Since on him it is in the open, so everything in the open. This eliminates the grave in the abyss which is not in the open¹⁶⁷The same argument as before; Babli 81b, Sifry Num. 28..
