One day he heard him reciting a tradition that Samuel had said: He that takes out of the sea a fish on the Sabbath, as soon as there is on it a dry spot as large as a sela', he has committed a breach of the Sabbath laws.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Cf. Shab. 107b. He desecrates the Sabbath by killing which is one of the thirty-nine primary types of work forbidden on the Sabbath (cf. Shab. 73a) .');"><sup>1</sup></span> Thereupon R'Jose B'Abin asked him: Why does not the Master add, 'and between the fins'? He replied : Are you not aware that R'Jose B'Abin had [already] stated this? [The former] retorted: I am R'Jose B'Abin.
