Seder Moed סדר מועד

Cycle 14 ends Monday, 7 June 2027. 16.6% of the way through the Talmud.

Bold is the Talmud's own words. The regular text between is explanation woven in by Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz (1937 to 2020), whose English translation this is. A mishna is the short ruling a passage starts from; the Gemara is the discussion of it; a baraita is an early teaching quoted from outside the Mishna.

Shekalim 8 תלמוד ירושלמי שקלים ג׳:א׳:י״א-ב׳:ד׳

  1. 1

    MISHNAH: One disburses from the lodge into three boxes of three seah each, on which is written ג ,ב ,א. Rebbi Ismael says, it was written in Greek, A, B, Γ. The disburser enters neither in trousers with pockets, nor with shoes, nor with sandals, nor with phylacteries nor with an amulet, lest he become poor and people would say, he became poor because he sinned in the lodge, or he became rich and people would say, he enriched himself from the money lifted from the lodge, for a person needs to be clean before people as he has to be clean before the Omnipresent, as it is said, you have to be blameless before the Eternal and before Israel, and it says, find grace and understanding in the eyes of God and men.

    משנה: בְּשָׁלֹשׁ קוּפּוֹת שֶׁל שָׁלֹֹש שָׁלֹֹש סְאִין תּוֹרְמִין אֶת הַלִּשְׁכָּה וְכָתוּב בָּהֶן אל״ף בי״ת גימ״ל. רִבִּי יִשְׁמָעֵאל אוֹמֵר יְוָנִית כָּתוּב בָּהֶן אלפ״א בית״א גמל״א. אֵין הַתּוֹרֵם נִכְנָס לֹא בְּפַרַגּוֹד חָפוּת וְלֹא בְּמִנְעָל וְלֹא בְּסַנְדָּל וְלֹא בִּתְפִילָּה וְלֹא בְּקָמִיעַ שֶׁמָּא יַעֲנִי וִיֹאמְרוּ מֵעֲוֹן הַלִּשְׁכָּה הֶעֱנִי אוֹ שֶׁמָּא יַעֲשִׁיר וְיֹאמְרוּ מִתְּרוּמַת הַלִּשְׁכָּה הֶעֱשִׁיר. שֶׁאָדָם צָרִיךְ לָצֵאת יְדֵי הַבִּרְיּוֹת כְּדֶרֶךְ שֶׁצָּרִיךְ לָצֵאת יְדֵי הַמָּקוֹם שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר וִהְיִיתֶם נְקִיִים מֵיְיָ וּמִיִּשְׂרָאֵל וְאוֹמֵר וּמְצָא חֵן וְשֵׂכֶל טוֹב בְּעֵינֵי אֱלֹהִים וְאָדָם:

  2. 2

    HALAKHAH: [Rebbi Ze`ira asked Rebbi Joshiah, what is the measure of three baskets? He told him, let us infer the hidden from the explicit. It is stated:] One distributes from the lodge into three boxes of three seah each, which is nine seah, which is seah38; it is written on them ג ,ב ,א. Why is ,ג ב ,א written on them? To say that one does not take from the first before one has taken from the second, and not from the second before one has taken from the third.

    הלכה: [רִבִּי זְעוּרָא שָׁאַל רִבִּי אוֹשַׁעְיָּא. כַּמָּה הוּא שִׁיעוּרָן שֶׁלּ שָׁלֹשׁ קוּפוֹת. אָמַר לֵיהּ. נִלְמוֹד סָתוּם מִן הַמְפוֹרָשׁ. תַּנֵּי.]. בְּשָׁלֹשׁ קוּפּוֹת שֶׁל שָׁלֹשׁ שָׁלֹשׁ סְאִין שֶׁהֵן תִּשְׁעָה סְאִין שֶׁהֵן עֶשְׂרִים וְשֶׁבַע סְאִין תּוֹרְמִין אֶת הַלִֹּשְכָּה וְכָתוּב עֲלֵיהֶן אֲלֶ״ף בֵּי״ת גִּימֶ״ל. מִפְּנֵי מַה כָתוּב עֲלֵיהֶן אֲלֶ״ף בֵּי״ת גִּימֶ״ל. לוֹמַר. אֵין מִסְתַּפֵּק מִן הָרִאשׁוֹנָה קוֹדֶם לַשְּׁנִיָיה וְלֹא מִשְּׁנִיָיה קוֹדֶם לַשְּׁלִישִׁית.

  3. 3

    [There, we have stated: “One who brings out wine to mix a cup.” Rebbi Ze`ira asked Rebbi Joshiah, what is the measure of a cup? He told him, let us infer the hidden from the explicit since Rebbi Ḥiyya stated, the Four Cups which they said add up to an Italic quartarius of wine.

    [תַּמָּן תַּנִּינָן הַמּוֹצִיא יִַין כְּדֵי מְזִיגַת הַכּוֹס. רִבִּי זְעירָא שְׁאִיל אֶת רִבִּי יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ. כַּמָּה הָא שִׁעוּרָן שֶׁל כּוֹס. אָמַר לֵיהּ. נִלְמַד סָתוּם מִן הַמְפוֹרָשׁ. דְּתַנֵּי רִבִּי חִיָיא. אַרְבָּעָה כוּסוּת שֶׁאָמְרוּ יֵשְׁנָן רְבִיעִית יַיִן הָאִיטַלְקִי.

  4. 4

    A cup mixed by how much? Rebbi Yose bar Bevin said in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan, let us hear from the following: “Water. a gulp; Rebbi Jehudah says, for mixing a cup. Wine. a gulp; Rebbi Jehudah says, for mixing a cup.” This implies mixed as cups are mixed. What is the measure of cups? Rebbi Abun said, τέταρτρον is a quarter.

    הַכּוּס מָזוּג בְּכַמָּה. אָמַר רִבִּי יוּסֵי בַּר בֵּיבִין מִשּׁוּם רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן. נִישְׁמְעִינָן מִן הָדָא. מַּיִם כְּדֵי גְמִיעָה. רִבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר. כְּדֵי מְזִיגַת הַכּוֹס. יִַין כְּדֵי גְמִיעָה. רִבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר. כְּדֵי מְזִיגַת הַכּוֹס. הָדָא אָמְרָה. מָזוּג כְּדֵי מְזִיגַת הַכּוֹס. כַּמָּה שִׁיעוּרָן שֶׁל כּוֹסוֹת. רִבִּי אָבוּן אָמַר. טֶוטְרַטין וּרְבִיעַ.
