Reference for Yoma 171:15

ר' חמא (בר) חנינא רמי כתיב (ירמיהו ג, יד) שובו בנים שובבים דמעיקרא שובבים אתם וכתיב ארפא משובותיכם לא קשיא כאן מאהבה כאן מיראה

R'Hama B'Hanina pointed out a contradiction: It is written : Return, ye backsliding children,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Jer. III, 22.');">²⁴</span> I. e. , you who were formerly backsliding; and it is written: I will heal your backsliding?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' [The contradiction is not clear. Apparently the first part of the verse implies that having repented they are perfect as children, whereas the second part, which speaks of 'healing', implies that they still retain a taint of their former backsliding, v. Rashi].');">²⁵</span>
