12th Cycle Dedication

ERCHIN 17 - Two weeks of study material have been dedicated by Mrs. Estanne Abraham Fawer to honor the twelfth Yahrzeit of her father, Rav Mordechai ben Eliezer Zvi (Rabbi Morton Weiner) Z'L, who passed away on 18 Teves 5760. May the merit of supporting and advancing Dafyomi study -- which was so important to him -- during the weeks of his Yahrzeit serve as an Iluy for his Neshamah.

TOSFOS DH HESEG YAD B'NODER V'HA'SHANIM B'NIDAR V'HA'ERCHIN B'NE'ERACH

úåñ' ã"ä äùâ éã áðåãø åäùðéí áðéãø åäòøëéï áðòøê

(Summary: Tosfos queries the Lashon ot the Mishnah.)

úéîä, àîàé ìà òøáéðäå áäãé äããé åìéúðé 'äùðéí åäòøëéï áðòøê'?

(a)

Question #1: Why does the Tana not put them together and say 'ha'Shanim ve'ha'Erchin be'Ne'erach' (See Shitah Mekubetzes 6)?

åòåã úéî', àîàé ìà úðé 'æëø ðåúï òøê ð÷áä' ,åìà àéöèøéê ì÷îï ìåîø 'äòøëéï áðòøê ëéöã ... '?

(b)

Question #2: Moreover, why does it not state 'Zachar Nosein Erech Nekeivah', in which case it would not need to say later 'ha'Erchin be'Ne'erach Keitzad'? (See Gilyon & Avodah Berurah).

Source: As the Gemara says later in 'ha'Omer Mishkali' (Daf 20a) - 'Nedarim are more stringent than Erchin, inasmuch as Nedarim take effect on animals and birds, and inasmuch as they are subject to Heseg Yad, which Erchin are not.

TOSFOS DH HESEG YAD B'NODER KEITZAD ANI SHEHE'ERICH ES HE'ASHIR NOSEIN ERECH ANI

úåñ' ã"ä äùâ éã áðåãø ëéöã òðé ùäòøéê àú äòùéø ðåúï òøê òðé

(Summary: Tosfos clarifies the Mishnah.)

(a)

Clarification: ha'R. Menachem mi'Youni explains that if an Ashir declares 'Erchi alai' and an Ani overhears him and states 'What he said is also on me', he gives the Erech of an Ani ...

'àáì á÷øáðåú àéðå ëï' -äøé ùàîø '÷øáï ùì îöåøò æä òìé... ' ...

1.

Clarification (cont.): 'Which is not the case by Korbanos - If somebody declares 'Korban shel Metzora Zeh alai ... ' ...

åà'äà ôìéâ øáé åàåîø ãòùéø ùàîø 'òøëé òìé' åùîò òðé åàåîø 'îä ùàîø æä, òìé' -ðåúï òøê òùéø, ëîå á÷øáðåú.

2.

Clarification (cont.): 'On which Rebbi argues and says that if an Ashir declares 'Erki alai', and an Ani who overhears him, states 'What he said is also on me', he gives the Erech of an Ashir, like the Din by Korbanos.

åëï îùîò ôé' ãîúðé'.

(b)

Proof: And this also what the Mishnah implies.

TOSFOS DH AVAL MADIRO ASHIR MAI HACHI NAMI D'MAYSI B'ASHIRUS I HACHI MAI AVAL B'KORBANOS EINO CHEIN

úåñ' ã"ä àáì îãéøå òùéø îàé äëé ðîé ãîééúé áòùéøåú à"ä îàé àáì á÷øáðåú àéðå ëï

(Summary: Tosfos clarifies the Sugya and concludes with a Kashya on the Rabbanan.)

åäìà á÷øáðåú ëîå ëï äãéï ùàí àîø òùéø '÷øáðåú ùì îöåøò òðé æä òìé' ,îáéà ÷øáï òùéø, åà"ë îàé çéìå÷ éù á÷øáðåú ìòøëéï?

(a)

Clarification: Is it not that by Korbanos too if a rich man declares 'Korbanos shel Metzora Ani Zeh alai', he must bring the Korban of an Ashir; so what is the difference between Korbanos and Erchin?

åîùðé à'çãà' ...

(b)

Answer: To which the Gemara answers 'Regarding one of them' ...

ôé' à'îöåøò òùéø åîãéøå òðé...

(c)

Clarification: With reference to the Metzora of an Ashir, where the Madir is an Ani ...

ãàéìå âáé îöåøò, àí àîø òðé '÷øáï ùì îöåøò òùéø æä òìé' ,ðåúï 'òøê' òùéø -ãìà àæìéðï áúø äðåãø ...

1.

Clarification (cont.): Because as far as a Metzora is concerned, if a poor man declares 'Korban shel Metzora Ashir Zeh alai', he brings thr Erech (i.e. Korban) of an Ashir - since we do not go after the Noder ...

åáòøëéï àæìéðï áúø äðåãø- ãàéìå àîø òùéø 'òøëé òìé' åùîò òðé [åàîø] 'îä ùàîø æä, òìé' ðåúï òøê òðé - ãàæìéðï áúø äðåãø ...

2.

Clarification (cont.): Whereas by Erchin we go after the Noder - and if a rich man declares 'Erki alai' and a poor man hears him and and says 'What he said is on me', he gives the Erech of an Ani - because we go after the Noder ...

åîù"ä àéöèøéê "äåà" ìîòåèé âáéä, ãìà àæìéðï áúø ðåãø ëîå áòøëéï ...

3.

Conclusion: That is why we need "Hu" to preclude by him (Metzora), that we do not go after the Noder like we do by Erchin.

åìøáé, ãàîø òøëéï å÷øáï ùåéï áãéï æä ,àí ëï, ìà àéöèøéê "äåà" ìîòåèé îöåøò òùéø ùîãéøå òðé, ãðåúï 'òøê' òùéø, ùäøé âáé òøëéï ëï äãéï ...

(d)

Rebbi: Whereas Rebbi, who says that Erchin and Metzora are the same in this regard, does not need "Hu" to preclude a Metzora Ashir whom an Ani is Madir, that he should give the 'Erech' of an Ashir, seeing as that is the Din by Erchin.

àìà àéöèøéê "äåà" ìîòåèé îöåøò òðé åîãéøå òùéø ...

1.

Rebbi (cont.): Only he needs "Hu" to preclude a Metzora Ani whom a rich man is Madir ...

ãñ"ã äåàéì åøáé áúø çéåáà ãâáøà àæéì, ä"ð ðéæéì áúø çéåáà ãâáøà, åðééúé ÷øáï òðé...

2.

Rebbi (cont.): Since we would otherwise have thought that since Rebbi goes after the obligation of the man, here too we should do likewise, and he should bring the Korban of an Ani

÷î"ì ãìà.

3.

Rebbi (concl.): It therefore teaches us that this is not the case.

àáì ìøáðï ìà àéöèøéê "äåà" ìîòåèé îöåøò òðé åîãéøå òùéø...

(e)

Clarification (concl.): But according to the Rabbanan, "Hu" is not needed to preclude a Metzora Ani whom an Ashir is Madir ...

ãäåàéì ãáòøëéï àæìéðï áúø ðåãø, ôùéèà ãáîöåøò ðîé àæìéðï áúø ðåãø, åìà àéöèøéê "äåà" ìäëé, ëãôé' .

1.

Reason: Because seeing as by Erchin we go after the Noder, it is obvious that we will do likewise by Metzora, and we do not need "Hu" for that, as Tosfos explained (Refer to Gilyon).

åëï ôéøù øù"é.

2.

Support: This is also how Rashi explains it.

åëé ãéé÷éðï áñåâéà ãùîòúéï ëï äåà.

3.

Proof: And if one examines the Sugya carefully, one will see that that is precisely what it is saying.

àáì öøéê òéåï ìøáé ãîãîä àîø äòùéø 'òøëé òìé' ì÷øáðåú ãîöåøò òùéø, ãòðé äðåãø áòé ìàéúåéé ÷øáï òùéø ...

(f)

Introduction to Question: This explanations needs to be looked into however, in that according to Rebbi, who compares where a rich man declares 'Erki alai' to the Korbanos of an Ashir, where the Noder is obligated to bring the Korban of an Ashir ...

åäééðå ãå÷à ëùàîø äòðé 'äøé òìé ÷øáðåú îöåøò æä ìôåèøå' ...

1.

Introduction to Question (cont.): This is specifically where the Ani undertakes to bring the Kobanos of the Ashir to exempt him ...

åàí àîø ëï áòøëéï îàé èòîà ãøáðï? ...

(g)

Question: And if he were to undertake the same thing by Erchin, what is the reason of the Rabbanan? ...

ëéåï ùàîø äøé îä ùàîø æä òìé ìôåèøå, àí ëï, ðãø áäãéà çîùéí ñìòéí, åàéê ðôèø áòøê òðé?

1.

Question (cont.): Since he undertakes to bring what the Ashir declared in order to exempt him, he has undertaken to bring fifty Sela'im, so how can he be Yotzei by giving the Erech of an Ani?

TOSFOS DH L'FI SHE'MATZINU B'ERCHIN

úåñ' ã"ä ìôé ùîöéðå áòøëéï

(Summary: Tosfos reconciles this with the Sugya on the previous Amud.)

úéîä, áìàå äàé èòîà ãîöéðå áòøëéï, äì"ì âáé îöåøò ãòðé ùàîø '÷øáï îöåøò òìé' ðåúï òøê òðé ...

(a)

Question: Without the reason of 'We find by Erchin', we ought to say that a Metzora of an Ani who declared 'Korban Metzora alai' gives the Erech of an Ani ...

îøéáåéà ã"àéï éãå îùâú" ' ,ìøáåú àú äðåãø' ...

1.

Source: Based on the Ribuy "Ein Yado Maseges", 'to include a Noder' ...

ëããøéù ìòéì?

2.

Source (cont.): As the Gemara Darshened earlier (on Amud Alef)?

åéù ìåîø, ãîëì î÷åí àé ìà àùëçï áòøëéï ëä"â, ìà äåä ìï ìîéãøù òðé ùäòøéê àú äòùéø, îøéáåéà ã÷øà "àí àéï éãå îùâú."

(b)

Answer: Nonetheless, if we did not find a similar source by Erchin, we would not have applied that D'rashah to an Ani who declared the Erech of an Ashir from the Ribuy of the Pasuk "Im Ein Yado Maseges" (See Avodah Berurah).

TOSFOS DH HACHA NAMI BASAR CHIYUVA D'GAVRA AZLINAN KA-MASHMA-LAN

úåñ' ã"ä äëà ðîé áúø çéåáà ãâáøà [àæìéðï] ÷î"ì

(Summary: Tosfos explains the difference between Metzora and Erchin regarding this issue.)

åä÷ùä øáéðå àìçðï, ëéåï ãàîøé' ðîé àìéáà ãøáé îöåøò òðé ùîãéøå òùéø àæìéðï áúø çéåáà ãâáøà, àé ìàå îéòåèà ã÷øà...

(a)

Question: R. Elchanan asks that, since even according to Rebbi, if not for the Miy'ut of the Pasuk, that a Metzora Ani whom an Ashir is Madir, we would go after the obligation of the person (who is Ne'erach) ...

àí ëï, áòøëéï ðîé ðéîà ëï- ãàí àîø òðé 'òøëé òìé' åùîò òùéø åàîø 'îä ùàîø æä òìé' ,ðåúï òøê òðé ...

1.

Question (cont.): By Erchin let us say the same thing - that if an Ani declares 'Ercho alai', and an Ashir overhears him and says 'What he declared is on me too', then he gives the Erech of an Ani ...

ëéåï ãàéï ìðå î÷øà ìîòè, ãìà àæìéðï áúø çéåáà ãâáøà äúí?

2.

Reason: Seeing as there is no Pasuk there to preclude, to say that that we do not go after 'the obligation of the person'?

åúéøõ øáéðå àìçðï, ãùàðé âáé îöåøò, ãàéú ìï ìîéîø ãàæìéðï áúø çéåáà ãâáøà àé ìàå ÷øà ãîîòè ìéä...

(b)

Answer: And he answers that a Metzora is different, since there it is correct to say that we go after 'the obligation of the person' (even) if there is no Pasuk to preclude it ...

ëéåï ùàéðå ðåãø àìà ÷øáï äîöåøò ãå÷à...

1.

Reason: Seeing as he is specifically Noder the Korban of the Metzora ...

àáì âáé òøëéï ãàîø äòùéø 'îä ùàîø æä äòðé òìé' ôùéèà [ãìà] àæìéðï áúø çéåáà ãâáøà...

(c)

Answer (cont.): Whereas by Erchin, where the Ashir undertakes to bring what the Ani declared, it is obvious that we do not go after 'the obligation of the man' ...

ùäøé àí ìà äéä äòðé çééá ëìåí àìà ùàîø äòùéø 'òøê ôìåðé òìé' ,äéä ðåúï òøê òùéø, åëì ùëï àí ðúçééá òøê...

1.

Reason: Because if the Ani would not be Chayav anything, and the Ashir would have said simply 'Erech P'loni alai', he would have had to give the Erech of an Ashir and all the more so if he is Chayav an Erech ...

àéï ìðå ìâøòå ìòùéø ìéúï òøê òðé.

2.

Reason: One cannot detract from the Ashir('s obligation) that he should now give the Erech of an Ani.

TOSFOS DH REBBI YEHUDAH SAVAR DAVAR HA'MACHSHIRO U'MAI NIHU ASHAM (This Dibur belongs after DH 'Aval').

úåñ' ã"ä øáé éäåãä ñáø ãáø äîëùéøå åîàé ðéäå àùí

(Summary: Tosfos reconciles this with the Sugya in Perek Mishkali alai.)

åà"ú, äàîø ì÷îï ôø' äàåîø îù÷ìé òìé (ãó ëà.) åáôñçéí (ãó ðè.) àîøé' 'ëùí ùçèàúå åàùîå îòëáéï, ëê òåìúå îòëá; àìîà îòëáéï ... '

(a)

Introduction to Question: The Gemara says later in Perek Mishkali alai (Daf 21a) and in Peaschim (Daf 59a) that - 'Just as his Chatas and his Asham are crucial, so too is his Olah' - So we see that they are all crucial? ...

åçèàú åòåìä ååãàé ìà îëùøé ëé àí àùí?

1.

Question: And the Chatas and the OLah are not Machshir, only the Asham?

åé"ì, ãàò"â ãäà åãàé ëåìäå îòëáé ìàëåì á÷ãùéí, ãäà áçèàú ùééëà áéä ëôøä éåúø îàùí...

(b)

Answer: Although for sure aall of them are crucial and prevent him from eating Kodshim, bearing in mind that the Chatas is connected with Kaparah more than the Asham ...

àáì îôðé ùàùí àéï ëì òé÷øå àìà ìä ëùéø àú äîöåøò, ùäéå îæéï òì äáäåðåú îãí äàùí, ìëê ÷øé ìéä 'ãáø äîëùéøå.'

1.

Answer (cont.): Yet since the Asham comes basically only to be Machshir the Metzora, when they sprinkled from its blood on big toe and thumb, it calls it 'something that is Machshir' (See Avodah Berurah).

TOSFOS DH AVAL B'KORBANOS ETC. AFILU MEIS

úåñ' ã"ä àáì á÷øáðåú [ëå'] àôé' îú

(Summary: Tosfos clarifies the statement and elaborates.)

àéï ìôøù äà áòøëéï àí îòøéëå äëäï ëùäåà òðé, éîúéï òã ùéîåú àáéå ùéäéä òùéø åéúï òøê òùéø ...

(a)

Refuted Explanation: One cannot extrapolate that by Erchin if the Kohen assesses him when he is an Ani, one waits until his father dies - whren he will be rich and he will then give the Erech of an Ashir ...

ãäà àîø áúåñôúà ãòøëéï 'òðé ùäòøéê òöîå, àéï àåîøéí ìå 'éòùä îìàëä åéáéà òøê òùéø' ,àìà îåèá ùéáéà òøê òðé îéã åàì éáéà òøê òùéø ìàçø æîï' ...

(b)

Refutation: Because we learned in the Tosefta of Erchin that 'If an Ani declares his own Erech, we do not tell him to work and to bring to bring the Erech of an Ashir later when he becomes rich' , but that it is better to bring the Erech of an Ani immediately than to bring that of an Ashir later' ...

àìîà îùîò ùàéï îîúéðéï.

1.

Refutation (cont.): Indicating that we do not wait.

àìà äëé ôéøåùå -àôéìå îú àáéå ùäéä âåññ...

(c)

Authentic Explanation: But the explanation is - that even if his father, who was a Goseis, dies ...

ëãîå÷é ìä áâî' ã÷øáï îöåøò àí äéä àáéå âåññ áùòú äáàú çèàú, å÷åãí ùäñôé÷ ìäáéà ÷øáðåú, îú àáéå, àéï ìä÷ãù áäï ëìåí...

1.

Source: As the Gemara will establish - that by the Korban of a Metzora, if his father is a Goseis at the time that he brings his Chatas, and dies before he manages to sacrifice his Korbanos, Hekdesh does not benefit from the father's property ...

[àáì áòøëéï àí îòøéëå äëäï áòðéå ìúú ñìò, åòã ìà âîø ìúú ñìò îú àáéå åäòùéø, ðåúï òøê òùéø.

2.

Authentic Explanation (cont.): Whereas by Erchin, if the Kohen assesses him to give a Sela when he is poor, and before he has managed to give it, his father dies and he becomes rich, he must give the Erech of an Ashir.

àê ÷ùä, îàé äàé ãôøéê áâî' 'ôùéèà'? ,åäà äøáä àúà ìàùîåòéðï -ùàí îú àáéå ÷åãí ùäñôé÷ ìäáéà ÷øáðåúéå åäòùéø, àéï ìä÷ãù áäí ëìåí?

(d)

Question: The Kashya remains however, why the Gemara asks 'P'shita?' , when the Tana is teaching us a big Chidush, inasmuch as - if his father dies, before he has managed to bring his Korbanos and becomes rich, Hekdesh does not benefit from his father's property?

åé"î, ã÷àé à'îéìúéä ãøáé éäåãä ãàîø 'òðé åäòùéø åçæø åäòðé, ðåúï òøê òùéø ...

(e)

Answer: Some commentaries explain that it is referring to Rebbi Yehudah, who rules that 'If he was poor, bacame rich and poor again, he gives the Erech of an Ashir ...

àáì á÷øáðåú, îú àáéå ëâåï ùäéä âåññ- ëãîå÷é ìéä, ëâåï ùäéä îúçìä òùéø åäòðé, åòúä ÷øåá äåà ìäéåú òùéø îéøåùú] àáéå ...

1.

Answer (cont.): Whereas by Korbanos, if his father was a Goseis - as the Gemara explains, where initially he was rich and then became poor, and now he is on the verge of becoming rich again, due to his forthcoming inheritance ...

àôé' äëé àéï ìä÷ãù áäï ëìåí ...

2.

Answer (cont.): Nevertheless, Hekdesh receives nothing ...

åôøéê áâî' 'ôùéèà' -ãàéï ìä÷ãù áäï ëìåí...

3.

Answer (concl.): And it is on this that the Gemara asks 'P'shita?' that Hekdesh receives nothing

ëéåï ùìà äéä ìå àåúå îîåï îòåìí[.

(f)

Reason: Seeing as that money never belonged to him?
