Jerusalem Talmud Shabbat 6.5

משנה: יוֹצְאָה אִשָּׁה בְחוּטֵי שֵׂיעָר בֵּין מִשֶּׁלָּהּ בֵּין מִשֶּׁל חֲבֶירְתָּהּ בֵּין מִשֶּׁל בְּהֵמָה וּבַטּוֹטֶפֶת וּבַסַּנְבּוּטִין בִּזְמַן שֶׁהֵן תְּפוּרִין וּבַכָּבוּל וּבְפֵיאָה נָכְרִית בֶּחָצֵר וּבְמוֹךְ שֶׁבְּאָזְנָהּ וּבְמוֹךְ שֶׁבְּסַנְדָּלָהּ וּבְמוֹךְ שֶׁהִתְקִינָה לְנִידָּתָהּ. בַּפִלְפֵּל וּבְגַרְגִּר מֶלַח וּבְכָל דָּבָר שֶׁתִּתֵּן לְתוֹךְ פִּיהָ וּבִלְבַד שֶׁלֹּא תִתֵּן בַּתְּחִילָה בַּשַּׁבָּת. וְאִם נָפַל לֹא תַחֲזִיר. שֵׁן תּוֹתֶבֶת וְשֵׁן שֶׁל זָהָב רִבִּי מַתִּיר. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹסְרִין:

MISHNAH: A woman may go out with hair threads, whether her own or another woman’s or an animal’s, with a frontlet with a head-dress hanging down the cheeks if they are sewn; with an under-cap and another’s braid into the courtyard with cotton wool in her ear, or cotton wool in her shoes, or cotton wool which she prepared for her period. With pepper or a grain of salt or any other thing she may put into her mouth on condition that she not start on the Sabbath, and if it fell out she may not return it. A replacement tooth and a gilt tooth Rebbi permits but the Sages prohibit.

הלכה: אָנָן כר׳ אִימִּי אָמַר קוֹמֵי רִבִּי יְהוּדָה מְנַשְׁיָיא בַּר מְנַשֶּׁה יִרְמְיָה. וּבִלְבַד שֶׁלֹּא תֵצֵא לֹא יַלְדָּה בְשֶׁלִּזְקֵינָה וְלֹא זְקֵינָה בְשֶׁלְיַלְדָּה. וְהָתַנִּינָן. הַבָּנוֹת יוֹצְאוֹת בְּחוּטִין. רִבִּי בָּא בְשֵׁם רַב יְהוּדָה. אֲפִילוּ כָרוּךְ עַל צַוָּארָהּ. רִבִּי שְׁמוּאֵל בְּשֵׁם רִבִּי זְעִירָא. תִּמָּן אֲפִילוּ שֶׁאֵינָהּ יְכוֹלָה לְהָבִיא חוֹטָמָהּ לְשַׂעֲרָהּ יוֹצְאָה הִיא. בְּרַם הָכָא לֹא תֵצֵא לֹא יַלְדָּה בְשֶׁלִּזְקֵינָה וְלֹא זְקֵינָה בְשֶׁלְיַלְדָּה.

HALAKHAH: Ḥanan bar Immi said before (Rebbi) [Rav] Jehudah [in the name of] Menashia bar (Menashe) Jeremiah: But only that a young girl should not go out with an old woman’s nor an old woman with a young girl’s. But did we not state: “Girls go out with threads”? Rebbi Abba in the name of Rav Jehudah, even wound around her neck. Rebbi Samuel in the name of Rebbi Zeˋira, there even if she cannot bring (her nose) [a thread similar] to her hair she may leave with it. But here, a young girl should not go out with an old woman’s nor an old woman with a young girl’s.

אָמַר רִבִּי אַבָּהוּ. כָּל שֶׁהוּא תוֹשָׁב בְּשִׂיעֵר נִקְרָא פֵּיאָה. רִבִּי יַנַּאי זְעִירָא נְפַל עוֹדְדֵיהּ דְּאוּדְנֵיהּ. בְּעָא מִיחְזַרְתֵּיהּ בַּשַּׁבָּתָא. וְגָעֲרוּ בוֹ חֲבֵירָיו מִשּׁוּם תַּכְשִׁיט. רִבִּי יַנַּאי סְבַר מֵימַר. שֶׁמֶן הוּא שֶׁהוּא מְרַפֶּה. וַחֲכָמִים סָבְרִין מֵימַר. מוֹךְ הוּא שֶׁהוּא מְרַפֶּה. וְלֹא כֵן אָמַר רַב יְהוּדָה בְשֵׁם רַב זְעִירָא. הַחוֹשֵׁשׁ אָזְנוֹ נוֹתֵן שֶׁמֶן עַל גַּבֵּי רֹאשׁוֹ וְלוֹחֵשׁ. וּבִלְבַד שֶׁלֹּא יִתֵּן לֹא בָיָד וְלֹא בְכֶלִי. רִבִּי יַנַּאי סְבַר מֵימַר. הֲלָכָה כְּרִבִּי יוֹסֵי. וַחֲבֵרוֹי סָבְרִין מֵימַר. אֵין הֲלָכָה כְּרִבִּי יוֹסֵי. וְלֹא כֵן אָמַר רִבִּי בָּא בַּר כַּהֲנָא רַב חִיָיא בַּר אַשִּׁי בְשֵׁם רַב. הֲלָכָה כְּרִבִּי יוֹסֵי. רִבִּי יַנַּאי סְבַר מֵימַר. אָדָם לֹא עָשׂוּ אוֹתוֹ כְקַרְקַע. וַחֲבֵרוֹי סָבְרִין מֵימַר. אָדָם כְּקַרְקַע הוּא. וְלֹא כֵן אָמַר רִבִּי זְעִירָה. עָשָׂה לוֹ רַב חִיָיה בַּר אַשִּׁי בֵּית יָד לְמוֹךְ שֶׁבְּאָזְנוֹ. סָבְרִין מֵימַר. אָדָם כְּקַרְקַע הוּא. וְכֵינִי. אֶלָּא כֵינִי. רִבִּי יַנַּאי סְבַר מֵימַר. אֵין שְׁכִיחַ וּמְהַלֵּךְ בָּהֶן אַרְבַּע אַמּוֹת. וַחֲבֵרוֹי סָבְרִין מֵימַר. שְׁכִיחַ הוּא וּמְהַלֵּךְ בָּהֶן אַרְבַּע אַמּוֹת.

Rebbi Abbahu said, anything which sits in the hair is called “wig.” The younger Rebbi Yannai had cotton wool in his ear which fell out. He wanted to return it on the Sabbath. His companions rebuked him; was it because of jewelry? Was Rebbi Yannai of the opinion that oil is the healing agent, whereas the Sages were of the opinion that the cotton wool was the healing agent? But did not (Rav) [Rebbi] Jehudah say in the name of Rav Zeˋira, a person with earache puts oil on his head and whispers on condition that he use neither hand nor vessel? Was Rebbi Yannai of the opinion that practice follows Rebbi Yose whereas his companions were of the opinion that practice does not follow Rebbi Yose? Buy did not Rebbi Abba bar Cahana, Rav Ḥiyya bar Ashi say in the name of Rav, practice follows Rebbi Yose? Was Rebbi Yannai of the opinion that they did not consider humans like soil whereas his companions were of the opinion that they made humans like soil? But did not Rebbi Zeˋira say that Rav Ḥiyya bar Ashi made himself a handle for the cotton wool in his ear? Could they hold that a human is treated like soil? Is this so? But it must be the following: Rebbi Yannai was of the opinion that he would not forget and carry it four cubits in the public domain and his companions were of the opinion that one would forget and carry it four cubits in the public domain.

אָמַר רִבִּי מָנָא. שָׁמְעִת טַעַם מִן רִבִּי שְׁמוּאֵל בְּשֵׁם רִבִּי זְעִירָא. וְלָא אֲנָא יְדַע מַה שָׁמְעִת. מַיי כְדוֹן. אָמַר רִבִּי יוֹסֵי. מִסְתַּבְּרָא בְּשֵׁן שֶׁלְּזָהָב שֶׁעָמְדָה לָהּ בְּיוֹקֶר לֹא תֵצֵא. דִּי נָפְלָה וּמְחַזְּרָה לֵיהּ. שֵׁן תּוֹתֶבֶת מָה אִית לָךְ. עוֹד הִיא מְבָהֲתָה מֵימוֹר לְנַגָּרָא. עֲבֵד לִי חוֹרִי. הִיא נָפְלָה וּמְחַזְּרָה לֵיהּ.

Rebbi Mana said, I heard the reason from Rebbi Samuel in the name of Rebbi Zeˋira but I do not remember what I heard. What about it? Rebbi Yose said, it is understandable that with a golden tooth which was expensive she should not go out, for if she lost it she would put it back. But what can you say about a replacement tooth? Still she would be embarrassed to tell the carpenter, make me another one. If she lost it she would put it back.

רִבִּי יָסָה וְרִבִּי אִמִּי. חַד חֲשַׁשׁ שִׁינֵּיהּ וְהוֹרֵי לֵיהּ חַבְרֵיהּ. חַד חֲשַׁשׁ אוּדְנֵיהּ וְהוֹרֵי לֵיהּ חַבְרֵיהּ. וְלָא יָדְעִין מָה אֲמַר דָא וּמָה אֲמַר דָא. מִן מַה דְרִבִּי יָסָה שֲׁאַל לָאַסְיָינֵיהּ דְּרִבִּי יַעֲקֹב בַּר אָחָא מָה עֲבִידָא שִׁינֵּיהּ דְּרִבִּי יַעֲקֹב בַּר אָחָא חֲבֵירֵינוּ. מִן מַה דְלָא אֲמַר רִבִּי יָסָא לא בָטֵלָה מִן יוֹמוֹי. הֲוֵי הוּא דְהוֹרֵי לְשִׁינָּא.

Rebbi Yasa and Rebbi Immi. One had a toothache and his colleague instructed him; the other one had an earache and his colleague instructed him. We do not know who said what. Since Rebbi Yasa asked Rebbi Jacob bar Aḥa’s doctor, how feels Rebbi Jacob bar Aḥa’s tooth, and since Rebbi Yasa never said an unnecessary word, it was he who instructed about the tooth.

רִבִּי יַנַּאי פָּתַר לָהּ בְּפִילְפֵּל וּבְגַרָגִּר מֶלַח. וַחֲבֵרוֹי פָתְרִין לֵיהּ עַל כּוּלְּהֹן.

Rebbi Yannai explains it about peppers or a grain of salt; his companions explain it about everything.
