אי כרבי אלעזר מאי איריא משום בעולה תיפוק ליה דהויא לה זונה דהא א"ר אלעזר פנוי הבא על הפנויה שלא לשם אישות עשאה זונה

while Rab holds the same view as R. Eleazar.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Cf. supra p. 395, n. 10. ');"><sup>4</sup></span> If [Rab holds the same view] as R. Eleazar, what was the object of pointing to her previous carnal intercourse<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' As a reason for prohibition. ');"><sup>5</sup></span> when [her prohibition] could have been inferred from the fact that she was a harlot,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Who is forbidden not only to a High Priest but also to a common priest (v. Lev. XXI, 7). Why, then, did Rab refer to a High Priest only? ');"><sup>6</sup></span>
