Soncino English Talmud · Berean Standard Bible
its [productive] strength be weakened, but why may it be painted with red paint? — The purpose is that people will observe it and pray for its recovery. As it was taught: [It is written:] And he shall cry: Unclean, unclean, that is to say, he shall make known [his affliction] to his fellow men that they may pray for him. Likewise, he upon whom a calamity has befallen should make known [his trouble] to his fellow men that they may pray for him. Rabina said: According to whom is it that we suspend a cluster [of dates] on a tree [which casts its fruit]? — It is in accordance with the above Tanna. MISHNAH.

GEMARA. Our Rabbis taught: Whence do we know that the law of ‘It and its young’ applies to consecrated animals? Because the verse states: When a bullock or a sheep or a goat is brought forth . . . [thenceforth it may be accepted for an offering], and there immediately follows the verse: And whether it be an ox or a sheep, ye shall not kill it and its young both in one day, thus indicating that the law of ‘It and its young’ applies to consecrated animals.
