Jerusalem Talmud Sanhedrin 6.8

English · Heinrich W. Guggenheimer

MISHNAH: Rebbi Meïr said: When a human suffers, how does the Divine presence express Itself? If it could be said, my head is light, my arm is light. If Scripture says so, I am suffering about the blood of evildoers, so much more if blood of the just is spilled.

HALAKHAH: “Rebbi Meïr said,” etc. We have stated קַלֵּינִי. Some Tannaïm state קַל אָנִי. He who says קַלֵּינִי uses only an expression of lightness. He who says קַל אָנִי uses a language of load.

The Mishnah does not follow Rebbi Meïr because he said, also for the blasphemer one violates a prohibition.
