H G asks:
Both Bava Metzia 27b / Bechoros 40 discuss "warts" per Artscroll but the Aramaic word is not the same. What is the physical difference or is it synonymous for same condition?
Other words?
Thanx
H G, monroe ct
The Kollel replies:
Yabeles and Shuma are the same. Rashi in Vayikra 22:22 (Yabeles) translates it as the French word, Vero'a (wart?), as he does for the word Shuma in Bava Metzia 27b. Yabeles is Hebrew and Shuma is Aramaic.
All the best,
