Jerusalem Talmud Rosh Hashanah 1.5

English · Heinrich W. Guggenheimer

MISHNAH: For two months one desecrates the Sabbath, for Nisan and for Tishre, when messengers go out into Syria and which fix the holidays. When the Temple existed one did desecrate for all of them because of the regulation of the sacrifice. Whether it was seen clearly or not seen clearly one desecrates the Sabbath for it. Rebbi Yose said, if it was seen clearly one does not desecrate the Sabbath for it. It happened that more than 40 couples passed by and Rebbi Aqiba held them back in Lydda. Rabban Gamliel sent to him, if you hinder the public you will make them stumble in the future.

HALAKHAH: What means בַעֲלִיל? “Generally known”. As you are saying, Molten silver open on earth, refined sevenfold.

“It happened that more than 40 couples passed by and Rebbi Aqiba held them back in Lydda.” Because they are 40 couples. But if it had been a single couple he would not have held them back.

“Rabban Gamliel sent to him, if you hinder the public you will make them stumble in the future.” Would you not hinder the public from performing a meritorious act? And any who would hinder the public from performing a meritorious act must be excommunicated. Rebbi Jehudah the baker said, Heaven forbid that Rebbi Aqiba was excommunicated; but it was the head of Gader; Rabban Gamliel sent and removed him from his headship.
