1) [line 8] POSCHIN LAHEN PESACH MI'MAKOM ACHER (CHARATAH)
(a) When an adult makes a Neder (or designates Chalah, Terumah or Kodshim)
or Nezirus, and he regrets having made the Neder, he may have it revoked by
a Beis Din of three (if they are not outstanding authorities) or a Yachid
Mumcheh (an outstanding authority). The general method used is that Beis Din
investigates whether the person would not have made the Neder in the first
place had he been aware of a particular fact. This investigation provides
the person with a "Pesach" (opening) with which the Beis Din can revoke the
Neder.
(b) If there are no facts that the person who made the Neder was not aware
of but, nevertheless, he now regrets making the Neder, there is a Machlokes
Tana'im as to whether the fact that the person regrets having made the Neder
("Charatah") is enough of a Pesach to allow the Neder to be annulled. The
Halachah follows the opinion that Charatah is a valid Pesach in and of
itself.
(c) The above interpretation follows the opinion of the RI and the RAN.
RASHI (cited by RAV AVRAHAM MIN HA'HAR) and RABEINU TAM, however, claim that
the words "mi'Makom Acher" indicate that the Chachamim in this Mishnah rule
that Charatah is *not* a valid Pesach for these Nedarim.
