MISHNAH: One who makes a vow to abstain from vegetables is permitted squash, but Rebbi Aqiba forbids it. They said to Rebbi Aqiba, does it not happen that a person says to his agent, buy vegetables for us, and he says, I found only squash? He said to them, that is true. Would he ever say, I found only legumes? But squash is contained in the notion of “vegetable”. He is forbidden fresh Egyptian beans and permitted dried ones. HALAKHAH: Does Rebbi Aqiba think “I found, I did not find”? Then one who forbids meat to himself should be forbidden fish and grasshopper meat since, if a man says to another, buy meat for us, he will return and say, I found only fish! But Rebbi Aqiba must think that squash are vegetables, but the rabbis think that squash are not vegetables. That applies to legal situations. “The vegetables of this garden are sold;” if squash were there, they would be sold in the opinion of Rebbi Aqiba, not sold in the opinion of the rabbis. The same applies to declarations of abandonment or dedications. Rebbi Jacob bar Idi, Rebbi Ḥiyya, in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: It turns out that the minority opinion here is the majority opinion there and vice-versa. As it was stated: “One who makes a vow to abstain from meat is forbidden all kinds of meat, is forbidden head, feet, neck, heart, and liver. But he is permitted fish meat and grasshoppers 8:1 , Tosephta Ḥulin 8:2 . . In this vein, Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel said, intestines are not meat and those who eat them are not humans.” Everybody agrees that a person who vows to forbid gourd to himself is permitted vegetables, as it was stated: A person who makes a vow to abstain from a main object is forbidden the peripherals; if he vows from the peripherals, he is permitted the main object. One who vows to abstain from meat is forbidden sinews, he who vows to abstain from sinews is permitted meat. Where do they disagree? About Egyptian gourd. But everybody agrees that Greek gourds 1:5 . are vegetables. Rebbi Crispus in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: All sorts of gourd and cabbage which we eat are Greek gourds. Rebbi Jehudah bar Ṣeradia says, qarmals , “orchard”, as a reference to “tree fruits”? (E. G.)} are vegetables. Rebbi Jonah and Rebbi Yose asked, are qarmals subject to tithes? 2:10, Notes 98–101 , dealing with the rules of the Sabbatical year. The statement of Bar Qappara there is attributed to R. Jonah. Bar Qappara stated, qarmals are free from tithes. That is, as long as they did not form gourds; but when they formed gourds they are like vegetables. Rebbi Yose instructed that it is forbidden to sip water from colocasia leaves because they are food for deer. Is one who makes a vow to abstain from vegetables permitted kinds of ‘ pvmlyy ’, as, for example, nb‘h , msrvlh , plvlyh , “orchard”, as a reference to “tree fruits”? (E. G.)} , and taro. 1:6, Note 273. Rebbi Isaac ben Ḥaqolah and Rebbi Joshua ben Levi both say taro is like a vegetable for tithes, the sabbatical year, peah , and kilaim . For vows it is problematic. If somebody makes a vow to abstain from vegetables, would he be permited dried ones? Let us hear from the following: “He is forbidden fresh Egyptian beans and permitted dried ones.” He mentioned only Egyptian beans, a kind which has a threshing floor. Therefore, anything which has no threshing floor is forbidden even if dried. If somebody makes a vow to abstain from bulbous plants, p. 455. he is forbidden green melon 1:2, Notes 38–39 . , squash, water melon, sweet melon 1:2, Notes 38–39 . and all tree fruits. If somebody makes a vow to abstain from sheep meat, he is permitted lambs, pidgeon chicks, and milk. But if he said, which grew this year, he is forbidden all of these. 76b . If somebody makes a vow to abstain from cider, he is forbidden everything sweet and permitted wine. That is, following those who say that vows are interpreted in the vernacular 76b . It seems that in Mishnaic times, the sweetness of the cider was the determinig factor. . But following those who say, vows are interpreted in biblical Hebrew, the Torah used “cider” as an expression for wine; “your cider” 12:17 , 14:23 , 18:4 . , that is wine.

MISHNAH: One who makes a vow to abstain from flour is forbidden dry Egyptian beans, the words of Rebbi Meїr. But the Sages say, he is forbidden only the Five Kinds 6:1 (Note 89 ), Kilaim 1:1 (Notes 2,3), Ḥallah 1:1 (Note 1 ). Only these contain gluten which produces sour dough. . Rebbi Meїr says, one who makes a vow to abstain from produce is forbidden only the Five Kinds but he who makes a vow to abstain from flour is forbidden everything, but permitted tree fruits and vegetables. HALAKHAH: “One who makes a vow,” etc. What is Rebbi Meїr’s reason? What the rain produces from the earth. What is the reason of the rabbis? Flour is עבור. 5:12 to indicate grains used to make bread. . 1:2 , the remainder from Halakhah Ḥallah 1:3, Notes 105 , 110–112 Cf. Tosephta Nedarim 4:3 . He who makes a vow not to use bread or produce is forbidden them, the words of Rebbi Meїr. Therefore, is he who makes a vow not to use bread or produce forbidden everything according to the rabbis? Rebbi Ḥiyya in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan, so is the Mishnah: “He who makes a vow not to use flour is only forbidden these.” How do we hold? If he uses “bread” in the biblical sense, then also if he says “produce” it is meant in the biblical sense. He should be forbidden everything since it is written ( Deut . 22:9 ): “The produce of the vineyard.” If he simply says “bread”; only from wheat or barley is it simply called “bread”. Rebbi Yose said, I confirmed it, at a place where one eats bread from all [kinds], only from the five kinds it is simply called “bread”.

MISHNAH: One who made a vow to abstain from garments is permitted sack-cloth, carpets, and goat’s hair cloth. If he said, a qônām that wool shall not come onto me, he is permitted to cover himself with shorn wool; that linen should not come upon me, he is permitted to cover himself with linen fibers. Rebbi Jehudah says, everything refers to the vow. If he was carrying and sweating and smelling badly, when he said, a qônām that no wool or flax should be on me, he is permitted to wear but forbidden to carry on his back. HALAKHAH: “One who made a vow to abstain from garments,” etc. One who made a vow to abstain from clothing is permitted sack-cloth, carpet, and goat’s hair cloth, leather apron , and bandages which Lewis and Short translate by “bandages for upper thighs”. {Compare also femorale, -is, n., “covering for the thigh” (E. G.)} Maimonides (Commentary to Kelim 27:6 ) defines פמליא as a “muslin headscarf”. . He is forbidden fascia “band, bandage, breast band, diadem” (Lewis and Short). and belt cf. Berakhot 9:7, Note 258 . . One who vows to abstain from clothing is forbidden all kinds of clothing but permitted these. Rebbi Jeremiah said, Rebbi Ze‘ira asked: If one said, a qônām, that I shall not wear a garment, that I shall not cover myself with clothing 10, Note 110 , Ma‘serot 3, Note 156), is not answered. ? Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar said, if he said, a qônām for anything that is generally used to cover oneself and a derivative of it is generally used to cover oneself; generally he is permitted the derivative; if he made a vow to abstain from the derivative he is permitted the material itself. What is an example? For example, sheepskin. For anything that is generally used to cover oneself but no derivative of it is generally used to cover oneself; if he vowed about it, he is permitted the derivative; if he made a vow to abstain from the derivative he is forbidden the material itself. What is an example? For example, goatskin. And anything that is generally not used to cover oneself but a derivative of it is generally used to cover oneself; if he vowed about it, he intended only the derivative. What is an example? Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun said, for example raw cotton. So is the Mishnah: If he was carrying and sweating; when he said, a qônām that no wool or flax should be on me, he is forbidden to wear them but permitted to carry them on his back that wool should be on me, he is forbidden to wear but permitted to carry it. If he was carrying wool and sweating; when he said, a qônām that no wool should be on me, he is permitted to wear it but forbidden to carry it on his back.” In that version, the meaning of עוֹלה על has to be determined by the context. .

MISHNAH: One who vows not to use the house is permitted the upper floor, the words of Rebbi Meïr; but the Sages say that the upper floor is part of the house. One who vows not to use the upper floor is permitted the house. HALAKHAH: “One who vows not to use the house,” etc. The opinion of Rebbi Meïr is reasonable for a city dweller.

MISHNAH: One who vows not to use the bed is permitted the couch, the words of Rebbi Meïr, but the Sages say, a couch is included in the notion of bed. One who vows not to use the couch is permitted the bed. HALAKHAH: “One who vows not to use the bed,” etc. 3:1 (5d 1. 70) and Mo‘ed Qaṭan 3:5 , 83a 1. 11; explained in Berakhot 3, Notes 22–35 (pp. 261–264). Both paragraphs are paralleled in the Babli, 56a/b . It was stated: “A dargesh is put upright and is not turned over. Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar says, he removes its qlwnṭryn and that is enough.” Rebbi Yosa in the name of Rebbi Joshua ben Levi: practice follows Rebbi Simeon ben Eleazar. Rebbi Jacob bar Aḥa in the name of Rebbi Yose, if a couch has posts which are upright and removed together with it, he takes them off and that is enough. What is a couch and what is a dargesh ? Rebbi Jeremiah said, one that one plaits on its body is a couch and one that one does not plait on its body is a dargesh. But have we not stated ( Kelim 16:1 ) “Bed and crib after he rubs them with fish skin.” If it is plaited on its body, why does he rub? Rebbi Eleazar said, explain it with those Caesarean cribs that have holes.

MISHNAH: One who vows not to use a town is permitted to enter its domain 5:4. but forbidden to enter its suburbs. But one who vows not to use a house is forbidden inwards from the doorpost. HALAKHAH: “One who vows not to use a town,” etc. From where that the suburbs of a town are like the town? It is written 5:13 ; this is written before the description of the conquest of Jericho. In the Babli, 56b , the argument is in the name of R. Joḥanan. Since for the Sages, the biblical meaning of a word has precedence over the meaning in the vernacular, one tries to have a biblical reference for the Sages’ opinion. , “it happened when Joshua was in Jericho.” How could he have been in Jericho? Is it not written that 6:1 : “Jericho was closed and besieged because of the Children of Israel; no one left and no one entered. ” “Jericho was closed and besieged,” and you say so? Rebbi Judan bar Shalom said, he was in a suburb. Rebbi Abun in the name of Rebbi Aḥa: It happened in Jericho 8, Note 127 . . Rebbi Mana asked, does this not disagree with Rebbi Joḥanan, since Rebbi Joḥanan said, in matters of vows they follow the vernacular? Is it not the way of a person who sees another one outside the gate to say, I saw him in Tiberias?

MISHNAH: ‘These fruits shall be qônām for me, a qônām they shall be for my mouth’, he is forbidden what is exchanged for them or what grows from them. ‘That I shall not eat, that I shall not taste,’ he is permitted what is exchanged for them, or what grows from them if the seed disappears. But if the seed does not disappear 9:6 as arum, garlic, and onion. , even second generation growth is forbidden. HALAKHAH: ‘These fruits shall be qônām for me,’ etc. How far 9:7, Notes 82–83 , referring to growth from garlic and onions forbidden as ṭevel. The Babli, 57b , refers to a more lenient opinion discussed in Terumot 7:7, Note 121 . ? It comes, as Rebbi Jacob bar Idi said in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan: It is forbidden for three harvests, but the fourth is permitted. Here, it is the same.

MISHNAH: If one says to his wife, a qônām shall be anything you work for, a qônām shall it be for my mouth, a qônām shall it be to my mouth; he is forbidden what is exchanged for it or what grows from it. ‘That I shall not eat, that I shall not taste,’ he is permitted what is exchanged for them, or what grows from them if the seed disappears. But if the seed does not disappear 9:6 as arum, garlic, and onion. , even second generation growth is forbidden. ‘What you prepare I would eat until Passover if …”. The Babli and most independent Mishnah mss. read אֵינִי “I do not” for Yerushalmi אֲנִי “I would”; the meaning is the same. , what you make I would wear until Passover,’ if she made before Passover, he may eat or wear after Passover. HALAKHAH: “If one says to his wife,” etc. So is the Mishnah: “What you prepare until Passover I shall not eat, what you make until Passover I shall not wear”.
שֶׁאַתְּ עוֹשָׂה עַד הַפֶּסַח וָאֲנִי אוֹכֵל וְשֶׁאַתְּ עוֹשָׂה עַד הַפֶּסַח וָאֲנִי מִתְכַּסֶּה עָשְׂתָה לִפְנֵי הַפֶּסַח אָסוּר לֶאֱכוֹל וּלְהִתְכַּסּוֹת אַחַר הַפֶּסַח. מַה שֶׁאַתְּ עוֹשָׂה כול׳. כֵּינִי מַתְנִיתָא. מַה שֶׁאַתְּ עוֹשָׂה עַד הַפֶּסַח אֲנִי מִתְכַּסֶּה.
MISHNAH: ‘What you prepare until Passover I would eat what you make until Passover I would wear if she made before Passover, he is forbidden to eat or wear after Passover. HALAKHAH: “What you prepare,” etc. So is the Mishnah: ‘What you make until Passover I shall wear’.

MISHNAH: ‘That you provide me with usufruct until Passover if you would go to your father’s house until Tabernacles that his wife cannot have anything from him until Passover (in the spring) if she goes to her father’s house before Tabernacles (next fall). It is obvious that if the wife goes before Passover, she is forbidden until Passover (and she should not have any usufruct from her husband now since maybe she will go afterwards). But if she goes during the six months between Passover and Tabernacles, any usufruct she had before Passover would be retroactively forbidden; therefore, he would transgress the commandment not to profane vows (by formulating his vow in a way which invites violating it) and she could be punished for violating his vow. While this interpretation seems to fit the language of the Mishnah (and is accepted as obvious by Maimonides in his Commentary), the Yerushalmi in the Halakhah rejects the idea that the wife could be guilty because of the husband’s vow and reads the Mishnah as given in the translation, that the husband forbids himself any usufruct from his wife. Therefore, he cannot have any usufruct now since she later might defy his instructions. There is no reason to think that the text of the Halakhah be corrupt. .’ If she went before Passover, she is forbidden to deliver usufruct to him until Passover, after Passover “he should not profane his word. 30:3 . .” HALAKHAH: “That you would have usufruct from me,” etc. He is forbidden to have usufruct from her immediately, for maybe she would go after Passover and it would turn out that his having usufruct would be retroactively [forbidden].
