איכא דאמרי חדא מיהא לקי

But Abaye said, He does not suffer stripes for the breach of a negative precept which includes a number of prohibitions.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Accordingly he does not suffer stripes for offering the mixture, since the negative precept of the mixture (implied in the term 'for any' v. supra) vkgnv iht includes prohibitions for the mixture of leaven and the mixture of honey.

ואיכא דאמרי חדא נמי לא לקי דהא לא מיחד לאויה כלאו דחסימה:

Some say that he suffers stripes but once;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For the inclusive negative precept. In the case in question, therefore, he would suffer stripes three times, once for offering the leaven, again for the honey, and a third time for the mixtures.');"><sup>4</sup></span> but others say that he does not suffer stripes at all,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For the inclusive negative precept; so that he would suffer stripes but twice.');"><sup>5</sup></span> since the negative precept is not as specific as that of 'muzzling'.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Sc. the ox when treading the corn, Deut. XXV, 4. This is given as an example of a specific negative precept because it follows immediately upon the law concerning stripes, Deut. XXV, 1ff.');"><sup>6</sup></span>
