[If one vows.] `Konam, if I taste wine, because it is injurious to the stomach: whereupon he was told, but well-matured wine is beneficial to the stomach, he is absolved in respect of well-matured wine, and not only in respect of well-matured wine, but of all wine. Konam, if I taste onions, because they are injurious to the heart`, then he was told, `but the wild onion is good for the heart,` He is permitted to partake of wild onions, and not only of wild onions, but of all onions. Such a case happened before R. Meir, and he gave absolution in respect of all onions. |

A man`s own honour, and the honour of his children, may be given as an opening. [Thus:] we say to him, `had you known that to-morrow it will be said of you, that is his regular habit to divorce his wife?; and of your daughters they will say, they are the daughters of a divorced woman. What fault did he find in this woman to divorce her??` if he replies, `had I known that it is so. I would not have vowed,` He is absolved. |
