Talmud for Nedarim 29:12

אימא סיפא אחר הפסח בבל יחל דברו ואי דלא איתהני לפני הפסח מי איכא בל יחל אלא פשיטא דאיתהני אלמא מיתהני

We learnt: [If one says to his wife, 'Konam be] that which you benefit from me until Passover, if you go to your father's house until the Festival',<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' 'The Festival', without any further determinant, always refers to Tabernacles, six months after Passover. ');"><sup>12</sup></span> if she went before Passover, she may not benefit from him until Passover. Now, only if she went before Passover is she forbidden, but not otherwise?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Though the condition extends to Tabernacles, we do not fear that she may yet violate it after Passover: this refutes Rab Judah. ');"><sup>13</sup></span> — R. Abba answered: If she went before Passover, she is forbidden and is flagellated;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' If she benefits from him. ');"><sup>14</sup></span> If she did not go, she is merely forbidden. Then consider the second clause: After Passover, she is subject to he shall not break his word. Now if she did not benefit before Passover, how can the injunction apply? Hence it is obvious that she did benefit, which proves that this is permitted,

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..
