תלמוד על סוטה 3:8

A man can declare a nazir, and a man can shave¹⁴³A man can declare his son to be a nazir, and the son can shave on the offerings which his father brings for him.. Rebbi Joḥanan in the name of Rebbi Meïr: ¹⁴⁴Tosephta Idiut 2:2. In 24 matters are the House of Shammai lenient but the House of Hillel stringent, and this is one of them: The House of Shammai say, a man cannot declare his son to be a nazir but the House of Hillel say, a man can declare his son to be a nazir. It was stated about those who are nazir from the womb¹⁴⁵This sentence seems to be incomplete.. Some want to say, until he grows two pubic hairs¹⁴⁶I. e., the father can declare his son to be a nazir until the latter reaches adulthood.. Some want to say, until he reaches the time of vows¹⁴⁷Mishnah Niddah 5:6: “The vows of a girl 11 years and one day of age or a boy 12 years and one day of age are checked.” If they know what they are doing, their vows are valid.. Everybody agrees that he can no longer declare him a nazir once he reaches the time of vows¹⁴⁸Once a boy’s own vows are valid, his father can no longer make vows for him. In the Babli, 29b/30a, the matter remains undecided..
