- It serves entirely for Rabbi's exposition.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Since the expression 'unclean' as stated of cattle is required for Rabbi's exposition, this same expression is also stated of wild animals for the sake of uniformity. The text, however, of this last question is doubtful. The MS.M. and Tosaf. a.l. have the following reading: rnhnk tfht htn ibcrk tkt rhtn 'rk tjhbv . And the interpretation is this: It is well according to R. Meir (for he has introduced a specific rule in the law of childbirth on the basis of the principle that the term 'wild animals' includes cattle) . But what can be said from the point of view of the Rabbis who differ from R. Meir? (In which case is this principle applied?)');">¹⁴</span>
