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 9 תלמוד ירושלמי שקלים ג׳:ב׳:כ״א-ג׳:ד׳

  1. 1

    MISHNAH: A member of the household of Rabban Gamliel was entering with his sheqel between his fingers and threw it before the disburser. The disburser was directing it and threw it into the box. The disburser only starts disbursing after he asked, “shall I disburse”? And they answer him, “disburse, disburse, disburse,” three times.
    He disburses the first time and covers it with cushions, the second time and covers it with cushions. The third time he was not covering. Why did he cover? That he should not forget and disburse from anything which already had been disbursed. The first time he disbursed in the name of the Land of Israel, the second time in the name of nearby walled cities, and the third time in the name of Babylonia, in the name of Media, and in the name of distant countries.

    משנה: שֶׁל בֵּית רַבָּן גַּמְלִיאֵל הָיָה נִכְנָס וְשִׁקְלוֹ בֵּין אֶצְבְּעוֹתָיו וְזוֹרְקוֹ לִפְנֵי הַתּוֹרֵם וְהַתּוֹרֵם מִתְכַּוֵּין וְדוֹחֲקוֹ לַקּוּפָּה. אֵין הַתּוֹרֵם תּוֹרֵם עַד שֶׁיֹּאמַר לָהֶן אֶתְרוֹם. וְהֵן אוֹמְרִים לוֹ תְּרוֹם, תְּרוֹם, תְּרוֹם, שָׁלֹֹֹש פְּעָמִים: תָּרַם אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנָה וְחִיפָּה בִּקְטַבֳלִיּוֹת הַשְּׁנִיָיה וְחִיפָּה בִּקְטַבֳלִיּוֹת. הַשְּׁלִישִׁית לֹא הָיָה מְחַפֶּה. וְלָמָּה הָיָה מְחַפֶּה שֶׁמָּא יִשְׁכַּח וְיִתְרוֹם מִן הַדָּבָר הַתָּרוּם. תָּרַם אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנָה לְשֵׁם אֶרֶץ יִשְׂרָאֵל הַשְּׁנִיָיה לְשֵׁם כְּרַכִים הַמּוּקָּפִין לָהּ וְהַשְּׁלִישִׁית לְשֵׁם בָּבֶל וּלְשֵׁם מָדַי וּלְשֵׁם מְדִינוֹת הָרְחוֹקוֹת:

  2. 2

    HALAKHAH: “A member of the household of Rabban Gamliel was,” etc. If there were two heaps and he gave heave from one for the other, would that not remove the liability from the other? It gave them satisfaction that the sacrifice should be brought first from their money.

    הלכה: שֶׁל בֵּית רַבָּן גַּמְלִיאֵל הָיָה כול׳. אִילּוּ שְׁנֵי כְרִיִים וְתָרַם מֵאֶחָד מֵהֶן עַל חֲבֵירוֹ שֶׁמָּא לֹא פָטַר חֲבֵירוֹ. הַנַַּחַת רוּחַ הִיא לָהֶם שֶׁלֹּא יְהֵא קָרְבָּן מִתְקָרֵב אֶלָּא מִשֶּׁלָּהֶן תְּחִילָּה.

  3. 3

    “He disburses the first time,” etc. It was stated: If he removed the covers, all was made remainder. It was stated: The third was the richest since it contained golden stateres and golden darics.

    תָּרַם אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנָה כול׳. תַּנֵּי שָׁמַט אֶת הַקַּטָבֳלִיּוֹת נַעֲשׂוּ כוּלָּן שְׁיֵרִיים. תַּנֵּי. שְׁלִישִׁית הִיא הָיְתָה עֲשִׁירָה שֶׁבְּכוּלָּן. שֶׁהָיוּ בָהּ אִיצְטְלֵי שֶׁלְזָהָב וְדַרְכוֹנוֹת שֶׁלְזָהָב.

  4. 4

    It was stated: He disburses the first time in the name of the Land of Israel and in the name of all of Israel. The second time in the name of fortified cities and in the name of all of Israel. The third time in the name of Babylonia and the name of Media and in the name of all of Israel. It was stated: If he took from the first box, even if there was in the first box he shall take from the second. If he took from the second box, even if there was in the second box he shall take from the third. If the third was used up, he returns to the second; if the second was used up he returns to the first. If all three are emptied, one collects new sheqalim; Rebbi Meïr says, he has regress on the remainder, since Rebbi Meïr says, one commits me`ilah with the remainder, perhaps one needs them at the end.

    תַּנֵּי. תָּרַם אֶת הָרִאשׁוֹנָה לְשֵׁם אֶרֶץ יִשְׂרָאֵל וּלְשֵׁם כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל. שְׁנִיָיה לְשֵׁם כַּרַכִין הַמּוּקָּפִין וּלְשֵׁם כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל. וְהַשְּׁלִישִׁית לְשֵׁם בָּבֶל וּלְשֵׁם מָדַיי וּלְשֵׁם מְדִינוּת הָרְחוֹקוֹת וּלְשֵׁם כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל. תַּנֵּי. נָטַל מִן הָרִאשׁוֹנָה אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁיֵּשׁ בָּרִאשׁוֹנָה נוֹטֵל מִן הַשְּׁנִיָיה. נָטַל מִן הַשְּׁנִיָיה אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁיֵּשׁ בָּשְּׁנִיָיה נוֹטֵל מִן הַשְּׁלִישִׁית. שָׁלְמָה שְׁלִישִׁית חוֹזֵר לַשְּׁנִיָיה. שָׁלְמָה שְׁנִיָיה חוֹזֵר לְרִאשׁוֹנָה. שָׁלְמוּ שְׁלָשְׁתָּן חוֹזֵר וְשׁוֹקֵל. רִבִּי מֵאִיר אוֹמֵר. חוֹזֵר לִשְׁיֵרִיים. שֶׁהָיָה רִבִּי מֵאִיר אוֹמֵר. מוֹעֲלִין בִּשְׁיֵרִיִים שֶׁמָּא יִצְרְכוּ לָהֶן בַּסּוֹף.
