Nazir 28
1) [line 12] CHELEV
(a) Chelev refers to the fat of an animal that is offered on the Mizbe'ach.
It consists of the layer of fat covering the stomachs, all the other fat
attached to the stomachs, and the fat on the kidneys along the flanks
(Vayikra 3:4). "Shuman" refers to all the other fat of an animal that is
permitted.
(b) It is forbidden to eat the Chelev of a Kosher Behemah (domesticated
animal), but it may be used for any other purpose. The Chelev of a Chayah (a
Kosher wild animal), however, may even be eaten.
(c) If a person eats Chelev b'Mezid (intentionally), he is Chayav Kares;
b'Shogeg (unintentionally) he must bring a Korban Chatas, as in the Shogeg
of all other sins that one is liable to Kares b'Mezid. The Korban Chatas is
a female goat or sheep. If a person is in doubt whether the fat he ate was
Chelev or Shuman, he must bring a Korban Asham Taluy.
2) [line 27] TIGLACHAS HA'TAHARAH - The shaving of a Nazir Tahor
(a) If a person makes a vow to become a Nazir without stipulating a time
period, his or her Nezirus lasts for a period of thirty days. If the person
stipulates a time period, his or her Nezirus lasts for whatever amount of
time he stipulated. During this period, the Nazir is not allowed to 1. cut
his hair; 2. become Tamei by touching or being in the same room as a corpse;
or 3. consume any products of the grapevine.
(b) When a Nazir completes his period of Nezirus, he must offer three
sacrifices: a male sheep as an Olah, a female sheep as a Chatas, and a ram
as a Shelamim. Together with the Shelamim he brings 6 and 2/3 Esronos of
Soles (fine flour), which are made into 20 loaves of Matzah, 10 Chalos
(unleavened loaves) and 10 Rekikin (flat Matzos). He then shaves off the
hair of his head and burns it under the pot in which the Zero'a of the
Shelamim is cooked (Bamidbar 6:18). (SEFER HA'CHINUCH #377)
3) [line 28] TIGLACHAS HA'TUM'AH - The shaving of a Nazir Tamei
If a Nazir becomes Tamei through contact with or being in the same room as a
corpse, on the third and seventh days he must be sprinkled with water that
has the ashes of the Parah Adumah in it to become Tahor. On the seventh day
of his purification he shaves off the hair of his head. On the eighth day,
he brings the sacrifices of a Nazir who becomes Tamei and begins counting
anew the days of Nezirus that he accepted upon himself. The sacrifices he
brings are two Torim (turtledoves) or two Benei Yonah (young common doves),
one as a Chatas and one as an Olah. He must also bring a yearling sheep as
an Asham. (These Korbanos and this shaving are in addition to the Korbanos
and shaving that he, and every Nazir, brings upon the completion of his
Nezirus)
4) [line 29] MENUVELES - afflicted, distressed [by not being able to drink
wine]
28b---------------------------------------28b
5) [line 3] ISHTECHITAS - slaughtered
6) [line 6] KIVSEI ATZERES
(a) The Torah commands to bring a Minchah offering on Shavuos called the
Shtei ha'Lechem (Vayikra 23:16-17). Besides Korbenos Olah, two sheep that
are Zivchei Shelamim are to be offered in conjunction with the Shtei
ha'Lechem (ibid. 23:19). (These sheep were the only Shelamim brought by the
Tzibur, and the only Shelamim that were Kodshei Kodashim.)
(b) If one of the four Avodos (Shechitah, Kabalas ha'Dam, Holachah and
Zerikas ha'Dam -- see Background to Pesachim 59:16) of a Korban Pesach or
Chatas are performed she'Lo Lishmo (not for the sake of that particular
Korban), they are Pasul. All other sacrifices are Kosher and may be offered
on the Mizbe'ach. This applies to the Kivsei Atzeres that are slaughtered
she'Lo Lishman as well, as the Gemara states (Beitzah 20b), "its blood may
be cast on the Mizbe'ach and its meat may be eaten."
(c) If Shavuos falls on Shabbos, however, the blood may not be cast on the
Mizbe'ach, since this action is a Shevus, which is prohibited mid'Rabanan to
be performed on Shabbos (RASHI to Yevamos 90b DH v'Kivsei Atzeres).
7) [line 12] ACHAS MI'SHELASHTAN - one of the three Korbanos which a Nazir
has to bring when he completes his period of Nezirus; i.e. a male sheep as
an Olah, a female sheep as a Chatas, and a ram as a Shelamim.
8) [line 17] PE'AH NOCHRIS - a wig made from the hair of another woman
9) [line 18] ZUHAMA - (a) filth, filthy (TOSFOS, MEFARESH); (b) loathsome
(ROSH)
10) [line 26] LO NEHENIN V'LO MO'ALIN - It is forbidden mid'Rabanan to
derive benefit from them and if one does, he does not bring a Korban Me'ilah
since money that is "destined for Yam ha'Melach," i.e. that must be
destroyed, and animals that put to death, are not considered Kodshei HaSh-m
(Me'ilah 3a)
11) [line 29] LECHEM (SHALMEI NAZIR)
When a Nazir completes his period of Nezirus, he must offer three
sacrifices: a male sheep as an Olah, a female sheep as a Chatas, and a ram
as a Shelamim. Together with the Shelamim he brings 6 and 2/3 Esronos of
Soles (fine flour), which are made into 20 loaves of Matzah, 10 Chalos
(unleavened loaves) and 10 Rekikin (flat Matzos). He then shaves off the
hair of his head and burns it under the pot in which the Zero'a of the
Shelamim is cooked (Bamidbar 6:18). (Sefer ha'Chinuch #377)
12) [last line] HALACHAH HI B'NAZIR - it is a Halachah l'Moshe mi'Sinai in
the Halachos of Nazir
