לפיכך אין דנין כו': מ"ט

And the latter [Raba]: how does he utilize the verse: And she that was full of justice? — Even as R. Eleazar said in the name of R. Isaac. Viz.: If on a fast day, the distribution of alms<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' It was customary to distribute the value of the food saved during the fast to the poor. Cf. Ber. 6b the merit of a fast consists in dispensing charity. ');"><sup>17</sup></span> is postponed overnight, it is just as though blood were shed,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For the needy who relied on it might have died of starvation. ');"><sup>18</sup></span>
