394.Before executing a criminal, a quantity of frankincense in a cup of wine was given to him to stupefy him and render him insensible to pain. The compassionate ladies of Jerusalem generally provided this draught at their own cost. This custom was in obedience to Prov. xxxi. 6, “Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.”395.Lev. xxiv. 14.396.Josh. vii. 19, 20, 25397.Deut. xvii. 7.398.Deut. xxi. 23.399.This supposes a man sorrowful, because he is obliged to punish his own son.400.I.e., the Divine Presence. The luminous cloud of glory in the Holy of Holies.401.The words in the original, “Baal Aob,” are supposed by some to denote a ventriloquist from “Aob,” meaning a “bottle” or “stomach.” “Aob” seems, however, much more likely to be allied to the Coptic word for “a serpent” or “Python.” Acts xvi. 16.402.Matt. xxvi. 65.403.The image of Molech was made of brass. It was hollow within and heated with fire outside. It stood in the valley of Hinnom without the walls of Jerusalem. Kimchi says the image of Molech contained seven chapels. These chapels are supposed by some to represent the seven planets. In the first chapel flowers were offered; in the second, turtle doves or young pigeons; in the third, lambs; in the fourth, rams; in the fifth, calves; in the sixth, oxen; “but whosoever offered his son, they opened to him the seventh chapel.” The face of Molech was like the face of a calf, and the image stretched forth its hands “as a man who opens his hands to receive something of his neighbor.” “They kindled the image with fire, and the priests took the babe and put it into the hands of Molech, and the babe gave up the ghost.” They called it Tophet; because they made a noise with drums (“tophim”), that the father might not hear the screams of his child and have pity upon him. And they called it Hinnom, because the child roared (“menahem”) in his anguish. Others say it was called Hinnom, because the priests used to say, “May it profit thee—may it be sweet to thee.”404.Cutting off is generally supposed to have extended to the family as well as the guilty person. It seems to have included the future as well as the present life.405.Deut. xxi. 18.406.Deut. xxi. 20.407.Prov. xxiii. 20.408.Deut. xxi. 19, 20.409.I.e., they are saved from crime by immediately depriving them of life. This summary mode of procedure was called “the rebel's beating.” It was a kind of lynch law inflicted by the people at once.

When the soldiers wished to drink, they soaked them in water so that it had a taste of wine, and the mud settled at the bottom of the vessel.447.The heart torn out of the animal when alive to be offered in idolatrous worship.448.A village where calves were offered in idolatry. Consequently the rennet was forbidden, and the cheese made from their rennet was also forbidden.449.Sol. Song, i. 2. The question is, whether the friendship sprang from the wine or not, and his conclusion is that as the savor is connected with the oil, so is the friendship with the wine, and so is the cheese connected with idolatry.450.I.e., for legal defilement.451.The locusts might be mixed in the basket with wine or liquor, which would cause legal defilement.452.The Salt Sea generally means in the Talmud the Dead Sea.

If the stones did not fulfil these conditions, an Israelite might use them for building purposes.459.If the idol be disregarded in time of peace, the heathen have ceased to esteem it as a god, and Israelites might use it for some purpose. But if the heathen neglected it during the confusion of war, there was no proof that they would not worship it at another time.460.I.e., triumphal arches with statues upon them.461.Because the idolater might have made an idolatrous libation from both flasks.462.Exod. xxi. 29.463.Deut. xxi. 4.464.Num. vi. 18.465.This refers to the killing or slaughtering of cattle and fowls for profane or domestic purposes.

Their object was to preserve the sacred text with scrupulous minuteness, and make a “fence” for the law. They added numberless directions for the better observance of the old precepts. The Scribes were succeeded by the “learners,” the “repeaters,” and the “master builders,” who continued from 220 b.c. till 220 a.d. In their time fall the Maccabæan revolution, the birth of Christ, the overthrow of the Temple by Titus, the rebellion of Barchochba, the complete destruction of Jerusalem, and the dispersion of the Jews.468.Supposed by some to be the Sameas and Pollio of Josephus.

The salt was intended to keep the priests from slipping and falling, which might easily happen, as they were obliged to minister barefooted.

This council was composed of the High Priest, the Sagan (the deputy or Suffragan of the High Priest), two Katholikin, who had charge of the treasuries, three Gizbarim, who were assistants of the Katholikin, and seven Ammarcalin, who had charge of the gates.592.The Nethinim, or the “given ones,” were added, it is supposed, from among the Gibeonites to fill up the deficiencies in the number of Levites who returned from the captivity in Babylon. They were held in low estimation, and were forbidden to intermarry with Israelites.593.Exod. xxxviii. 27.594.Exod. xxvi. 31-33.595.Exod. xxvi. 19.596.Exod. xxvi. 17.597.Exod. xvi. 24598.Exod. xxvi. 28.599.Exod. xxvi. 29.600.Exod. xxvi. 29.601.Exod. xxvi. 1.602.Exod. xxvi. 3.603.Exod. xxvi. 4.604.Exod. xxvi. 6.605.Exod. xxvi. 2.606.Exod. xxvi. 2.607.Exod. xxvi. 7, 8.608.Exod. xxvi. 9.609.Exod. xxxvi. 17.610.Exod. xxvi. 11.611.Exod. xxvi. 8.612.Exod. xxvi. 9.613.Exod. xxvi. 12.614.Some commentators explain these to be “skins of seals” or “dolphins,” and others understand the meaning to be a “blue color.” Exod. xxvi. 14.615.Num. iv. 25.616.Exod. xxvi. 33.617.Exod. xxvi. 35.618.Or, in the “House of dispensations.”619.Exod. xxxix. 3.620.Exod. xxvi. 31.621.Exod. xxvi. 36.622.Exod. xxx. 6.623.Exod. xxvii. 9.624.Exod. xxvii. 11.625.Exod. xxvii. 12.626.Exod. xxvii. 13.627.Exod. xxxviii. 14, 15.628.Exod. xxvii. 18.629.Exod. xxvii. 18.630.Exod. xxvii. 19.631.Num. iv. 26.632.Exod. xxvii. 18.633.Some explain this to mean “multiply fifty with 100” (Aruch); others think that the measurement is to be made with a rope of fifty cubits (Eruvin).634.Some read “in the name of,” etc.635.Exod. xxv. 10.636.Sol.

See “Leprosy,” xiii. 10.721.Num. viii. 8.722.The age of the lamb was reckoned from its birthday in Elul of last year till the first day of Elul in the current year.723.Lev. xxiii. 10, 17. The omer or wave-sheaf of barley was always cut on the evening of the 15th Nisan, even though it were a Sabbath. It must always have been gathered from a fresh harvest cultivated even in the Sabbatical year. The reapers asked these questions three times of those who were witnesses, “Has the sun gone down?” “With this sickle?” “Into this basket?” “On this Sabbath [first day of the Passover]?” “Shall I reap?” After the witnesses answered these questions the sheaf was reaped. It was finally ground into flour, and a handful of it mixed with frankincense was burned on the altar. The remainder belonged to the priests.724.Num. xxviii. The two wave-loaves of wheaten flour were always offered on the Jewish Pentecost.725.Deut. xxiii. 18.726.Nehem. ii. 8. 1 Chron. xxix. 1.727.According to Jewish tradition a dead body covered in with earth conveyed legal uncleanness to everyone who walked over it; but if a vault was over the body, or if air intervened between the corpse and the surface of the ground, it was regarded as a non-conductor. There are reckoned six degrees of uncleanness—the father of fathers, the fathers, the first, second, third, and fourth children of defilement. There are altogether twenty-nine fathers of uncleanness, of which eleven arise from contact with a dead body.728.Some commentators explain that “each heifer requires a fresh lad.”729.Num. xix. 3.730.The Pharisees asserted that a priest might be defiled, and that after washing he was legally clean for burning the red heifer. But the Sadducees maintained that he was not legally clean before sunset. Num. xix. 9, 10.731.Lev. xxii. 7.732.The cedar, hyssop, and scarlet wool were laid parallel to each other, and whatever portion of the scarlet wool remained too long was wrapped round the bundle.733.Num. xix. 9.734.Or thick parts of straw.735.
If the vessels had been in the first row, someone might have touched them, or some vessel might have come in contact with them, so as to render them unclean.736.Num. xix. 15.737.It does not disallow the purifying pool if water flowed through a crevice in the rock into the pool.738.The principle laid down in this mishna is that if one merely carried the rope for drawing the water, it was allowed to him to do so. But if he used the rope for any work advantageous to himself it was disallowed.739.The modern Yebna (Jamnia).740.The water is disallowed, because the man gained something for himself during the act of drawing it. His intention was not single-minded and pure.741.Lev. iv. 12, 21.742.Primary uncleanness arises from touching a dead body, leprosy, etc. Secondary uncleanness arises from touching one who had primary uncleanness.743.A tertiary uncleanness follows from contact with secondary uncleanness.744.That is one over whom evening had not yet come, nor was his offering yet made. Lev. xxii. 6, 7.745.Gen. i. 10.746.Isa. lviii. 11.747.The river Jarmuk is the Hieromax of the Greeks. It falls into the Jordan about four miles below the Lake of Tiberias. The Arabs now call it the Sheriat el Mandhûr.748.The well of Ahab is supposed by some to be the source of a river near Beirut. This supposition is, however, very doubtful.749.The modern Banias, one of the sources of the Jordan. It is situated under Mount Hermon, close to the remains of the ancient Cæsarea Philippi.750.Literally, “from time to time.”751.The meaning is, that if the greater part of the ashes be legal, purification would follow; but if the greater part be ordinary ashes, there would be no purification.752.The dispute is now about what constitutes “a clean place.”753.Heb. ix. 13, 14.754.Num. xix. 15.755.Maimonides translates “lattice-work.”756.Or trelliswork.757.This doctrine of intention has also been adopted into the system of Romanism. The Council of Trent (Session vii. Canon xi.) teaches that “Whoever shall affirm that when ministers perform and confer a sacrament, it is not necessary that they should have at least the intention to do what the Church does; let him be accursed.” It follows, that if, for example, in the sacrament of orders, any bishop in any age failed in due intention, all the orders which flowed from him are invalid.758.Chap. ix. 9; viii. 5.759.Another rendering is, “in his garment.”760.A log is about half a pint.761.Before eating ordinary food the hands must be washed once. Before eating consecrated food they must be washed twice.762.Num. xix. 15.763.I.e., from the uncleanness of a dead reptile.764.And consequently does not purify the place covered by the splinter or stone, which remained unwashed by the first water.765.Those that were legally clean continue clean, and those legally unclean continue unclean.766.His hands render unclean what they touch.767.His hands render sacred things unclean.768.I.e., the putting his hands into a house infected with leprosy.769.Literally “father of uncleanness,” such as a corpse or dead reptile, etc.770.I.e., uncleanness not containing the principle of uncleanness.771.An object unclean in the secondary degree cannot make another unclean in the same degree.772.Num. x. 35, 36. The rabbis count these verses a distinct book of the law.773.When R. Eleazar, the son of Azariah, was made president of the school in Jamnia.774.A cab is about three pints.775.And could not contain water enough to wash one foot.776.Of an unclean person.777.It continues as long as its name, and as such cannot become unclean from pressure.778.I.e., with Israelites dwelling there.779.Tithe for the poor could be eaten anywhere.780.Second tithes could only be eaten in Jerusalem. Deut. xiv. 22, 23.781.The sixth year was fixed for the tithe to the poor, consequently in countries outside the land of Israel, and not subject to the Sabbatical rest, Israelites should pay the second tithe.782.Mal. iii. 8. It is assumed that the prophet means the consecrated second tithe, and not the unconsecrated tithe for the poor.783.Ps. xxv. 10.784.Deut. xxiii. 3.785.Isa. x. 13.786.Jer. xlix. 6.787.Amos ix. 14.788.The ancient Hebrew letters are now called Samaritan. They are still used for writing by the small community of Samaritans who dwell in Nablus, in the Holy Land. The Jews now use the Chaldee characters; and the Talmud therefore errs in calling the old national letters Assyrian.789.Some suppose the writings of Homer are meant; others think that these were books against revealed religion.790.Exod. v. 2. The name of Pharaoh cannot be considered an insult to Moses, since it precedes the name of God.791.Exod. ix. 27.
