Nazir 55b

Hebrew

אֶלָּא לָאו, בִּנְזִירוּת מְרוּבָּה, וְקָתָנֵי: מַתְחִיל וּמוֹנֶה מִיָּד! הוּא מוֹתֵיב לַהּ וְהוּא מְפָרֵק לַהּ: בִּנְזִירוּת בַּת חֲמִשִּׁים יוֹם, דְּיָתֵיב עֶשְׂרִין, וְאִיתְיְלִידָא בֵּיהּ צָרַעַת. מְגַלַּח צָרַעְתּוֹ, וַהֲדַר יָתֵיב תְּלָתִין יוֹמִין דְּנָזִיר. דְּהָא אִית לֵיהּ גִּידּוּל שֵׂעָר. מֵתִיב רָמֵי בַּר חָמָא: נָזִיר שֶׁהָיָה טָמֵא בְּסָפֵק, וּמוּחְלָט בְּסָפֵק,
