Nedarim 2

NEDARIM 2,3,4,5 - dedicated by Uri Wolfson and Naftali Wilk in honor of Rav Mordechai Rabin of Har Nof, a true beacon of Torah and Chesed.

***** PEREK KOL KINUYEY *****

1) MISHNAH: KOL KINUYEY

(a) Kinuyim (slang) for Nedarim, Charamim, Shevuos, and Nezirus are binding.
(b) Yados (shorthand), such as "I make a neder on eating any food of yours" (but without saying that it is forbidden like a korban), are binding.
1. This is with terms such as Mudrani, Mufreshani, Meruchkani.
(c) (R. Akiva) The term "Menudeh" is also likely to be binding.
2b---------------------------------------2b

2) THE CONTENTS OF THE MISHNAH

(a) Question: Why, unlike in the Mishnah of Nazir, did this Mishnah list all different types of vows?
(b) Answer: Shavuah was listed because it is adjacent to Neder in the Torah, and once the Mishnah was listing two types, it added the rest.
(c) Question: Shavuah should therefore also be adjacent to Neder in the Mishnah!?
(d) Answer: Cherem was placed next to Neder because they are both prohibitions on the object, unlike Shavuah which places the prohibition on the person.
3) THE ORDER OF THE MISHNAH
(a) Question: Why did the Mishnah list Kinuyim first, but explain Yados first?
(b) Question #2: Why did the Mishnah leave out the basic law of Yados?
(c) Answer to #2: Emend it such that the law of Yados is listed after Kinuyim.
(d) Question: Why not explain the laws of Kinuyim before that of Yados?
(e) Answer: It explains the latter law first, as we find elsewhere.
(f) Question: But there are also places where it explains the former law first!?
(g) Answer: Only where there are many examples of the laws, does it explain the former laws first.
(h) Question: Surely the law of which items animals may carry on Shabbos do not have many examples, yet the former laws are listed first!?
