E questi possono radersi su Chol Hamoed: uno che ritorna dall'estero [su Chol Hamoed, che non ha avuto il tempo di radersi prima. Questo, solo se andasse all'estero per commerci o per qualche altra necessità, ma se lo facesse solo per andare in tournée, è proibito.], Uno che è liberato dalla prigionia, uno che è liberato dalla prigione, [anche se fosse imprigionato da un israelita, che gli avrebbe permesso di radersi (nonostante ciò non si fosse rasato), in difficoltà], uno che è stato rilasciato dalla sua scomunica dai saggi [su Chol Hamoed, che prima non poteva radersi, rasandosi vietato a chi è scomunicato]; allo stesso modo, uno che era stato assolto dal suo voto [di non radersi] da un saggio (su Chol Hamoed) [non essendo stato in grado di trovare un saggio che potesse farlo prima di allora; oppure, non potendo trovare "un'apertura all'assoluzione" fino ad allora.], e un nazirita, [che completò il suo naziritismo su Chol Hamoed], e un lebbroso che salì dall'impurità alla pulizia. [Se il suo settimo giorno è caduto su Chol Hamoed, gli è permesso radersi, vale a dire. (Levitico 14: 9): "Il settimo giorno si raderà tutti i capelli". (La rasatura di un nethek (un punto sbiancato) non è menzionata, poiché si tratta di un'attività minore, che si sta radendo intorno al punto.) La ragione per cui a tutti quelli esclusi nella nostra Mishnah è vietato radersi su Chol Hamoed è che non piano di radersi, quando sono liberi dal lavoro, e quindi entrare nel primo giorno del festival con la barba lunga. E anche questo è il motivo per cui è vietato lavare i vestiti su Chol Hamoed.]
Jerusalem Talmud Pesachim
24In addition to the Beṣah text (צ), this paragraph also is in Moˋed qaṭan 3:1 (81d line 27,ק). Babli 53a, Berakhot 19a, Beṣah23a. It was stated: Rebbi Yose said, Theudas of Rome led the people of Rome to eat helmeted kid-goat in the Passover nights, the Sages sent and said to him, if you were not Theudas, would we not put you in the ban? Who was Theudas? Rebbi Ḥananiah said, because he was providing for the rabbis. Are you not causing the public to eat sancta outside the Temple? And anybody causing the public to eat sancta outside the Temple has to be put in the ban.

Jerusalem Talmud Rosh Hashanah
“Rabban Gamliel sent to him, if you hinder the public you will make them stumble in the future.” Would you not hinder the public from performing a meritorious act? And any who would hinder the public from performing a meritorious act must be excommunicated279Cf. Mo`ed qatan 3:1, Ta`aniot3:12.. Rebbi Jehudah the baker280This attribution seems to be correct and the quote in the Babli 22a has to be corrected accordingly. said, Heaven forbid that Rebbi Aqiba was excommunicated; but it was the head of Gader281This name was introduced into the text by the corrector from the Babli. In the ms. ג()ר was written by the scribe; the middle letter was erased by the corrector and replaced by ד. Therefore the name certainly is incorrect, also because talmudic Gadara is on the East side of Lake Genezareth, far from the road to Jabneh. Therefore most likely the name is Gezer, a district capital on the road from Lydda to Jabneh. In the Babli one has to read גֶדֶֿר, with dh indistinguishable in sound from z. (Places Haggedera, Gederotaim, Gederot mentioned Jos. 15:37.41.); Rabban Gamliel sent and removed him from his headship.

Jerusalem Talmud Taanit
HALAKHAH: “Simeon ben Shataḥ sent to him and told him, you should be excommunicated.” For if there had been a decision made as it was decided in the days of Elijah106When the decision about rainfall was delegated by God to Elijah (1K. 17:1; cf. Sanhedrin 10:2, Notes 147ff.)., would you not have caused a desecration of the Name in public107If the decision had been given into the hands of another holy man, his prayer would have been ineffective and people would conclude that prayer is ineffective and stop praying.? And everybody who causes a public desecration of the Name must be excommunicated. [There, we have stated: Rabban Gamliel sent to him, if you hinder the public you will cause a deluge. Would you not hinder the public from performing a meritorious act? And any who would hinder the public from performing a meritorious act must be excommunicated.]108Corrector’s addition; totally garbled copy from Roš Haššanah 1:5, Note 279. He answered him, but does not the Holy One, praise to Him, cancel His decision because of the decision of a just person109This is the standard interpretation of Ps. 145:19, the pleasure of those who fear Him He will do and similar verses as explained in the next paragraph. Babli Mo`ed qaṭan 16b.? He said to him, [yes]110Corrector’s addition, unnecessary.. The Holy One, praise to Him, may cancel His decision because of the decision of a just person, but He will not cancel the decision of one just person because of the decision of his just colleague111This is the essence of the reference to Elijah..

HALAKHAH: It was stated: “One does not answer ‘Amen’ in the Temple. What did they say? ‘Praised be the glory of His Kingdom forever and ever.’ And from where that one does not answer ‘Amen’ in the Temple? The verse says179Neh. 9:5., Arise, praise the Eternal, your God, forever and ever. From where for every single benediction? The verse says, and exalted over all praise and glory.180Tosephta 1:11. Babli 16b, Berakhot 63a, Soṭa40b; Yerushalmi Berakhot9:7 (Notes 278–280).”
