ז כי אתא רב דימי אמר בית דינו של חשמונאי גזרו הבא על הכותית חייב עליה משום נשג"א
7 R. Perida's grandfather found a skull thrown down at the gates of Jerusalem, upon which 'this and yet another' was written. So he buried it, but it re-emerged; again he buried it, and again it re-emerged. Thereupon he said, This must be Jehoiakim's skull, of whom it is written, He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Jer.

When his wife came home and saw it, she went and told her neighbours about it. 'It must be the skull of his first wife', said they to her, 'whom he cannot forget'. So she fired the oven and burnt it. When he came, he said to her, 'That was meant by its inscription, "This and yet another"'.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., it would be exposed to this disgrace, of being cast away in the streets, and yet another, viz., burning.
