<big><b>MISHNAH: </b></big>ALL [PERSONS] ARE FIT TO EVALUATE OR TO BE MADE THE SUBJECTS OF VALUATION,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Lev. XXVII, 1f fixes the value of the person dedicated to the sanctuary, this value depending only on the age of the person dedicated. Hence, if someone uses the formula: Erek peloni 'alay. i.e., the valuation of So-and-so be upon me (to pay to the sanctuary) . he must make payment in accord with the valuation fixed in Lev. XXVII, independent of the person's physical or mental condition. Thus e.g., the valuation fixed there for a man of the age of between twenty and sixty, is fifty shekels.');"><sup>1</sup></span>
