Scripture thereby implies, [God says], Keep alive the soul which I gave you. SIMEON THE TEMANITE SAYS [THE ALARM IS SOUNDED] ALSO EVEN ON ACCOUNT OF PLAGUE etc. The question was asked: Did the Rabbis disagree with him only when it was a question of sounding the alarm on the Sabbath, but on weekdays they agreed with him; or, perhaps they did not agree with him in any circumstances? - Come and hear: The alarm is sounded on account of plague on the Sabbath, and, it goes without saying, on weekdays.
