Ask A Question on the daf

Nedarim 86

1) FORBIDDING SOMETHING NOT YET IN THE WORLD

(a) Answer #1 (R. Ilai): Yes! One who says, this field that I sell to you should be Hekdesh when I buy it back!
1. Objection (R. Yirmeyah): The comparison is faulty! There, he can sanctify it now (before selling it); the wife cannot!
2. (R. Yirmeyah): Our case resembles one who says, 'This field that I sold to you should be Hekdesh when I buy it back' - it does not become Hekdesh!
3. Objection (Rav Papa): The comparison is faulty! There, the buyer owns the field itself and its produce; in our case, the wife owns her hands!
(b) Answer #2 (Rav Papa): We find such a case (Hekdesh which cannot work now, but works later) - one who says 'This field I mortgaged to you (gave as collateral for a loan, to eat its fruit until the loan is repaid) should be Hekdesh when I redeem it' - the field becomes Hekdesh!
1. Objection (Rav Shisha Brei d'Rav Idi): The comparison is faulty!
i. There, he can redeem the field; the wife cannot divorce herself!
(c) Answer #3 (Rav Shisha Brei d'Rav Idi): We find such a case - one who says 'This field I mortgaged to you for 10 years should be Hekdesh when I redeem it' - the field becomes Hekdesh!
1. Objection (Rav Ashi): The comparison is faulty! There, he can redeem the field after 10 years; a wife can never divorce herself!

(d) Answer #4 (Rav Ashi): One cannot ask a question from Konamos - they are different, they are as something sanctified for Temple service, as Rava taught.
1. (Rava): Sanctifying, the prohibition of Chametz, and freeing a slave uproot liens.
(e) Question: If so, her earnings should become forbidden immediately- why does the Mishnah say, lest he will divorce her?
(f) Answer: Really, her earnings are forbidden immediately; the Mishnah says, lest he will divorce her, to teach that even if it does not become Hekdesh now (because Chachamim strengthened the lien of a husband), still, he should annul the vow.
2) MISTAKEN ANNULMENT
(a) (Mishnah): A man's wife vowed, and he thought his daughter vowed, or vice-versa;
(b) Or, she vowed to bring a sacrifice, and he thought that she vowed to be a Nezirah, or vice-versa;
(c) Or, she vowed from dates, and he thought that she vowed from grapes, or vice-versa - in all these cases, he (can) annul the vow when he learns of his mistake. (Even if he already affirmed or annulled it, this was invalid.)
(d) (Gemara): We infer from the Mishnah, "He will annul her" - he must know whose vow he is annulling!
