כי לא מזדהיר בתנאה אבל באיסוריה מזדהר

a person may be lax with respect to a condition, but he is observant of an actual prohibition.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Thus, where the second day is merely a condition for the first, we fear that even after having slept on the first, he may do so on the second too, hut where the second day is the subject of the actual vow, we do not fear that having slept on the first he will disregard the prohibition of the second.

Jerusalem Talmud Sukkah

HALAKHAH: 43Babli 53a, Tosephta 4:5. In Babli and Tosephta the statement is formulated in the first person, “we did not taste.” This is appropriate since he was a Levite involved in the Temple service.“Rebbi Joshua ben Ḥanania said, all during the water-drawing festivity they did not at all taste the taste of sleep. At the start they went to sacrifice the daily morning sacrifice; from there they went to sacrifice the musaf sacrifices; from there they went [to sacrifice vows and voluntary offerings44A vow expresses an obligation to bring a certain kind of sacrifice, whereas a voluntary offering is a dedication of a certain animal as sacrifice. If the animal becomes disqualified after dedication, in the case of a vow the owner has to procure a replacement, but not in the case of the voluntary offering.; from there they went]45Corrector’s addition; unknown source. to eat and drink. From there they went to study Torah; and from there they went to sacrifice the daily evening sacrifice; and from there they went to the water-drawing festivity.” But was it not stated46Babli 53a; Nedarim 2:1 Note 20 (Babli Nedarim 15a). Both Babli sources are Amoraic in the name of R. Joḥanan., “an oath that I shall not sleep for three days,” one whips him47For a vain oath since nobody can go without sleep for three days. and he sleeps immediately? They were dozing48As the Babli explains, R. Joshua did not say that they did not sleep but that they did not taste the taste of sleep..
