1)
(a) We have already discussed the Machlokes between Rebbi Yehudah ben
Beseira and the Rabbanan (with regard to 'Nishba Lekayem es ha'Mitzvah').
If Rebbi Yehudah ben Beseira validates such a Shevu'ah 'Kal va'Chomer' from
a Shevu'as ha'Reshus, on what grounds do the Rabbanan consider it invalid?
(b) From which Pasuk does the Beraisa learn this Halachah?
(c) And from where does the same Tana learn that ...
- ... 'Nishba Levatel es ha'Mitzvah ve'Lo Bitel Patur'?
- ... 'Nishba Lehara Le'atzmo ve'Lo Heira, Chayav'?
(d) And from where does the Tana ...
- ... preclude 'Nishba Lehara la'Acherim'?
- ... include 'Nishba Leheitiv la'Acherim'?
2)
(a) The problem with establishing "Lehara O Leheitiv by a D'var Mitzvah is
based on the fact that we either compare Hara'ah to Hatavah or Hatavah to
Hara'ah. Assuming the former, the Tana learns that Hatavah does not entail a
Bitul Mitzvah. What does he mean by that?
(b) On what basis does he take this for granted?
(c) If we now compare Hara'ah to Hatavah, how will we establish Hara'ah?
(d) What is the problem with that?
3)
(a) Assuming on the other hand, that we compare Hatavah to Hara'ah, then we
will learn that just as Hara'ah does not speak by a Kiyum Mitzvah (such as
not eating Chametz on Pesach), neither will Hatavah speak by a Kiyum Mitzvah
(such as to eat Matzah on Seder night), only by a Bitul Mitzvah (to eat
Chametz on Pesach). Why do we take for granted that the Tana is not
speaking about a Kiyum Mitzvah?
(b) What are trying to prove from the above Kashyos?
(c) If "Lehara" and "Leheitiv" are referring to a D'var ha'Reshus, how will
we then compare ..
- ... Hara'ah to Hatavah?
- ... Hatavah to Hara'ah?
(d) How will the Kashyos that we asked previously apply here too?
4)
(a) How do we finally learn Reshus from the fact that the Torah found it
necessary to write "O" to teach us Hatavas Acherim?
(b) What problem do we have with this? What else might we Darshen from "O"?
(c) This is only a problem according to Rebbi Yashiyah. Concerning the Pasuk
in Kedoshim "Ish Asher Yekalel es Aviv ve'es Imo ... Aviv ve'Imo Kilel",
Rebbi Yashiyah says 'Aviv Kilel, Imo Kilel'. How does he extrapolate this
from the Pasuk?
(d) What do we learn from there regarding 'O', which creates a problem on
our Sugya?
5)
(a) There is no problem according to Rebbi Yonasan. What does Rebbi
Yonasan say regarding the Pasuk in Kedoshim? What would the Torah have had
to insert had it meant Aviv *and* Imo?
(b) We resolve the problem by establishing Rebbi Yashiyah like Rebbi Akiva
(whom we discussed earlier in the Perek). What does Rebbi Akiva say?
(c) And from where will he preclude Kiyum Mitzvah?
Answers to questions
27b---------------------------------------27b
6)
(a) How does Rebbi Yehudah ben Beseira counter the Rabbanan's argument (that
Kiyum Mitzvah is not 'be'La'av ve'Hein')?
(b) And what do the Rabbanan say to that?
7)
(a) What does our Mishnah say about a case where someone declares 'Shevu'ah
she'Lo Ochal Kikar Zu, Shevu'ah she'Lo Ochlenah, Shevu'ah she'Lo Ochlenah,
ve'Achlah'? How many Korbanos will he have to bring if he transgresses
be'Shogeg?
(b) This is a typical case of Shevu'as Bituy. What is the punishment for
transgressing either a Shevu'as Bituy or a Shevu'as Shav, be'Meizid?
(c) What happens to someone who contravenes either of them be'Shogeg?
8)
(a) What problem do we have with the Tana's Lashon 'Shevu'ah she'Lo Ochal
Kikar Zu, Shevu'ah she'Lo Ochlenah ... '?
(b) What do we answer? What do we extrapolate from the change of expression?
(c) The reasoning behind this distinction is based on a statement of Rava.
What distinction did Rava make between whether one says 'Lo Ochal Kikar Zu'
or 'she'Lo Ochlenah'?
(d) How does this now explain the Mishnah's distinction?
9)
(a) We already know that 'Ein Shevu'ah Chalah al Shevu'ah' from the first
'Shevu'ah she'Lo Ochlenah'. So why does the Tana find it necessary to add a
second 'Shevu'ah she'Lo Ochlenah'?
(b) The ramifications of this statement are based on a ruling of Rava.
What did Rava say about someone who made one Shevu'ah after the other, and
subsequently had the first Shevu'ah revoked?
(c) What does the Beraisa say about someone who declares two sets of
Nezirus, and who, at the end of thirty days, has already designated his
Korban, when he decides to have his first Nezirus revoked?
(d) Why will this Beraisa not support Rava? What makes the case of two
Nezirus different than two Shevu'os?
10)
(a) What does Rava say about someone who forbade on himself a loaf of bread
with a Shevu'ah, and after eating part of it, he wants to have the Shevu'ah
revoked? Under what condition is he permitted to do so?
(b) What problem does Rav Acha B'rei de'Rava have with this, assuming that
he originally declared ...
- ... 'she'Lo Ochal Kikar Zu'?
- ... 'she'Lo Ochlenah'?
(c) Rav Ashi establishes Rava's ruling either way. How does he establish
it, assuming the Nishba said ...
- ... 'she'Lo Ochal Kikar Zu'?
- ... 'she'Lo Ochlenah'?
