Soncino English Talmud · Berean Standard Bible
And R. Judah? — He can answer you: ‘Whatsoever is right’ is written in reference to ‘in his eyes’, but at the great bamah one could offer even statutory offerings. But surely ‘man’ is written, and does that not intimate that [only] a man may offer voluntary but not obligatory sacrifices? — ‘Man’ is written to intimate that a zar is fit. [The fitness of] a zar is deduced from, And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of the Lord [at the door of the tent of meeting]? — You might say, it requires the sanctification of the firstborn, as originally: hence it [‘man’] informs us [that it is not so]. The Sages are identical with the first Tanna? — Said R. Papa: They differ as to whether libations were offered in the wilderness. The master said: ‘R. Simeon said etc’. What is R. Simeon's reason? — Because it is written, And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and they offered the Passover-offering. Now that is obvious? Surely then this is what [the text] informs us: they offered only obligatory [sacrifices] similar to the Passover-offering, but they did not offer [obligatory sacrifices] which were not like the Passover-offering. And the other? — It is required for R. Johanan's dictum. For R. Johanan said on R. Bana'ah's authority: An uncircumcised person received sprinkling. A Tanna recited before R. Adda b. Ahabah: The only difference between the great [public] bamah and the minor [private] bamah was [in respect of] Passover-offerings and obligatory-offerings which have a fixed time. Said he to him: in accordance with whom was this told to you? In accordance with R. Simeon, who maintained: The only difference between the great bamah and the minor bamah was [in respect of] Passover-offerings and obligatory offerings which have a fixed time; and you must make your teaching refer to a statutory burnt-offering, as there is also a votive burnt-offering. For if you would refer to sin-offerings, is there then a votive sin-offering? Yet let him make it refer to an obligatory meal-offering, since there were habitin? — He holds that there were no meal-offering[s] at the bamah. WHEN THEY CAME TO SHILOH etc. Whence do we know it? — Said R. Hiyya b. Abba in R. Johanan's name: one text says, And she brought him unto the house of the Lord in Shiloh; whereas another text says, And He forsook the Tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which He had made to dwell among men, and it also says, Moreover He abhorred the tent of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim. How are these reconciled? It had no roof, but stones below and curtains above. MOST SACRED SACRIFICES [etc.] Whence do we know it? — Said [R. Eleazar in] R. Oshaia[‘s name]: Because Scripture saith, Take heed to thyself that thou offer not thy burnt-offerings in every place that thou seest: You may not offer ‘in every place that thou seest’, but you may eat [the sacrifice] ‘in every place that thou seest’. Yet say: in every place that thou seest’ you may not offer, but you may slaughter ‘in every place that thou seest’? — Said R. Jannai: Scripture saith, There shalt thou offer . . . and there thou shalt sacrifice. R. Abdimi b. Hasa said, Scripture saith,
