###### Avodah Zarah 34a:1
[Avodah Zarah 34a:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Avodah%20Zarah/r/34a:1)

לְהוּ: אֲנָא חָזֵינָא לְהוּ דְּמִדַּיְּיתִי, וְכֵיוָן דְּמִדַּיְּיתִי וַדַּאי בָּלְעִי וַאֲסִירִי. מַאי טַעְמָא? הַתּוֹרָה הֵעִידָה עַל כְּלִי חֶרֶס שֶׁאֵינוֹ יוֹצֵא מִידֵי דּוֹפְנוֹ לְעוֹלָם.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**to them: I observe that they sweat,** i.e., they exude liquid from their exterior. **And since they sweat, they certainly absorb, and are** therefore **prohibited.** The Gemara asks: **What is the reason** that they cannot be rendered permitted by purging with hot water? It is because **the Torah attested with regard to an earthenware vessel that** substances absorbed in it are **never expelled from its walls.**


###### Avodah Zarah 34a:2
[Avodah Zarah 34a:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Avodah%20Zarah/r/34a:2)

מַאי שְׁנָא מִיַּיִן נֶסֶךְ, דְּדָרֵשׁ לְהוּ מָרִימָר: כּוּלְּהוּ מָאנֵי דְקוּנְיָא שְׁרֵי?

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara reiterates its question: Mareimar ruled that glazed earthenware absorbs leavened bread permanently, but he did not rule likewise with regard to wine. But in **what** way **is** leavened bread **different from wine** used for an idolatrous **libation?** Why is it **that Mareimar taught** with regard to **them: All glazed earthenware vessels are permitted,** even if they have contained wine of gentiles?


###### Avodah Zarah 34a:3
[Avodah Zarah 34a:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Avodah%20Zarah/r/34a:3)

וְכִי תֵּימָא: חָמֵץ דְּאוֹרָיְיתָא, יֵין נֶסֶךְ דְּרַבָּנַן — וְהָא כֹּל דְּתַקּוּן רַבָּנַן כְּעֵין דְּאוֹרָיְיתָא תַּקּוּן! זֶה תַּשְׁמִישׁוֹ בְּחַמִּין, וְזֶה תַּשְׁמִישׁוֹ בְּצוֹנֵן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara adds: **And if you would say** that these cases are different, as **leavened bread** is prohibited **by Torah law** whereas **wine** used for **a libation** is prohibited **by rabbinic** law, that is difficult: **But** there is a principle that **all** ordinances **that the Sages instituted, they instituted them parallel to Torah law.** Although this wine is prohibited by rabbinic law, it is subject to the same *halakhot* as leavened bread. The Gemara answers: **This one’s use is with hot** substances, **and that one’s use is with cold** substances. Wine is drunk while it is cold and is therefore absorbed to a lesser extent than leavened bread, which is often cooked in the vessel.

רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא אִיקְּלַע לְגִינְזַק, בְּעוֹ מִינֵּיהּ: מִתְעַנִּין לְשָׁעוֹת אוֹ אֵין מִתְעַנִּין לְשָׁעוֹת? לָא הֲוָה בִּידֵיהּ. קַנְקַנִּים שֶׁל גּוֹיִם אֲסוּרִין אוֹ מוּתָּרִין? לָא הֲוָה בִּידֵיהּ. בַּמֶּה שִׁימֵּשׁ מֹשֶׁה כׇּל שִׁבְעַת יְמֵי הַמִּלּוּאִים? לָא הֲוָה בִּידֵיהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara relates: **Rabbi Akiva happened to** come to the city of **Ginzak,** whose residents **asked him** three questions to which he did not know the answer: First, **does one fast for hours, or does one not fast for hours?** The answer to the question **was not available to** Rabbi Akiva. Second, are clay **jars** that **belong to gentiles** permanently **prohibited, or** can they be rendered **permitted?** The answer **was not available to him.** Third, **in what** garments **did Moses serve all seven days of** the Tabernacle’s **inauguration,** as acting priest when Aaron and his sons were initiated into the priesthood? Moses presumably did not wear the priestly vestments, as he himself was not a priest. Once again, the answer **was not available to him.**

[Avodah Zarah 34a:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Avodah%20Zarah/r/34a:5)

אֲתָא שְׁאֵל בֵּי מִדְרְשָׁא, אָמְרִי: הִלְכְתָא מִתְעַנִּין לְשָׁעוֹת, וְאִם הִשְׁלִים — מִתְפַּלֵּל תְּפִלַּת תַּעֲנִית. וְהִלְכְתָא קַנְקַנִּים שֶׁל גּוֹיִם לְאַחַר שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר חֹדֶשׁ מוּתָּרִין. בַּמֶּה שִׁימֵּשׁ מֹשֶׁה שִׁבְעַת יְמֵי הַמִּלּוּאִים? בְּחָלוּק לָבָן. רַב כָּהֲנָא מַתְנֵי: בְּחָלוּק לָבָן שֶׁאֵין בּוֹ אִימְּרָא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Rabbi Akiva **came** and **asked** these questions in the **study hall. They said to him:** The ***halakha*** is that **one fasts for hours, and if he completed** the fast **he prays the prayer of a fast. And** the ***halakha*** is that the **jars** that **belong to gentiles are permitted after** they have not been used for **twelve months.** Finally, **in what** garments **did Moses serve** during **the seven days of inauguration?** He did not serve in his own clothes, nor in the regular priestly vestments, but **in** a special **white cloak. Rav Kahana teaches:** Moses served **in a white cloak without a hem.**

[Avodah Zarah 34a:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Avodah%20Zarah/r/34a:6)

הַחַרְצַנִּים וְהַזַּגִּים שֶׁל גּוֹיִם וְכוּ׳. תָּנוּ רַבָּנַן: הַחַרְצַנִּים וְהַזַּגִּים שֶׁל גּוֹיִם, לַחִין — אֲסוּרִין, יְבֵשִׁים — מוּתָּרִים. הֵי נִינְהוּ לַחִין וְהֵי נִינְהוּ יְבֵשִׁין? אָמַר רַב יְהוּדָה אָמַר שְׁמוּאֵל: לַחִין — כׇּל שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר חֹדֶשׁ, יְבֵשִׁים — לְאַחַר שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר חֹדֶשׁ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ The mishna teaches that residual grape **seeds and grape skins** that **belong to gentiles** are prohibited. **The Sages taught:** Moist grape **seeds and grape skins** that **belong to gentiles** are **prohibited,** but **dry ones are permitted.** The Gemara asks: **Which are** considered **moist and which are** considered **dry? Rav Yehuda says** that **Shmuel says:** Grape residues are considered **moist** for **all** of the first **twelve months** after the grapes were pressed, and **dry after** the first **twelve months.**

[Avodah Zarah 34a:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Avodah%20Zarah/r/34a:7)

אִתְּמַר, אָמַר רַבָּה בַּר בַּר חָנָה אָמַר רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן: כְּשֶׁהֵן אֲסוּרִין — אֲסוּרִין אֲפִילּוּ בַּהֲנָאָה, כְּשֶׁהֵן מוּתָּרִין — מוּתָּרִין אֲפִילּוּ בַּאֲכִילָה.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**It was stated** that **Rabba bar bar Ḥana says** that **Rabbi Yoḥanan says: When** these grape residues **are prohibited,** one is **prohibited even from** deriving **benefit** from them. **When they are permitted, they are permitted even with regard to consumption.**

**Rav Zevid says:** With regard to **these yeasts** produced from **the wine of Arameans, after twelve months** of **the year they are permitted. Rav Ḥaviva, son of Rava, says:** With regard to **these jugs** that belong to gentiles, **after twelve months** of **the year they are permitted. Rav Ḥaviva says:** With regard to **these**
