פירוש על שבת 44:5

We teach the version, "As a dilemma was raised before them": Meaning to say that this matter was already raised; and the resolution of that dilemma was resolved for us like this.

As a dilemma was raised before them, does kindling accomplish the commandment, etc.: And what comes out from it (the practical difference) is if a deaf-mute, a mentally compromised person or a minor lit or placed [the lamps].
