מֵעִנְיָנָא לְעִנְיָנָא; הָכִי נָמֵי, דְּקָמוּ וַהֲדַר יְתִיבוּ. וְהִלְכְתָא כְּווֹתֵיהּ דְּרַב יוֹסֵף בְּשָׂדֶה, עִנְיָן וּמֶחֱצָה.

**from** discussing that **matter to** discuss a different **matter,** so he can no longer renege on his decision. **So too,** according to Rabba, one can explain that Rav Yehuda was referring to a case **where they arose and then sat** down again. Although no support for Rav Yosef’s opinion was adduced from Rav Yehuda’s ruling, the Gemara nevertheless states: **And the *halakha*** is **in accordance with** the opinion **of Rav Yosef in** the disputes concerning the division of **a field,** discussed above (12b), reneging while they are discussing the same **matter,** discussed here, **and a half** of one’s property, discussed below (143a).

הָאִשָּׁה אֶת בְּנָהּ וְכוּ׳. הָא תּוּ לְמָה לִי? הָא תְּנָא לֵיהּ רֵישָׁא: הָאִישׁ אֶת אִמּוֹ, וְהָאִישׁ אֶת אִשְׁתּוֹ!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ The mishna teaches that **a woman** bequeaths to **her son,** her husband, and her maternal uncles, but she does not inherit from them. The Gemara asks: **Why do I** need **this as well? But it is** already **taught** in **the former clause: A man** inherits from **his mother and a man** inherits from **his wife.** The *halakha* stated in this clause seems to be the same as that of the other clause.

הָא קָא מַשְׁמַע לַן – דְּאִשָּׁה אֶת בְּנָהּ, דּוּמְיָא דְּאִשָּׁה אֶת בַּעְלָהּ; מָה אִשָּׁה אֶת בַּעְלָהּ – אֵין הַבַּעַל יוֹרֵשׁ אֶת אִשְׁתּוֹ בַּקֶּבֶר, אַף אִשָּׁה אֶת בְּנָהּ – אֵין הַבֵּן יוֹרֵשׁ אֶת אִמּוֹ בַּקֶּבֶר, לְהַנְחִיל לָאַחִין מִן הָאָב.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara answers: **This teaches us that** the *halakha* of **a woman** who bequeaths to **her son** is **similar to that** of **a woman** who bequeaths to **her husband: Just as** with regard to **a woman** who bequeaths to **her husband, the husband does not inherit** property through **his wife** while he is **in the grave,** i.e., if a husband predeceases his wife, then his relatives, such as children from another marriage, do not inherit the wife’s property through him but rather the wife’s own relatives inherit her property, **so too,** the same *halakha* applies with regard to **a woman** who bequeaths to **her son,** that **the son does not inherit** property through **his mother** while he is **in the grave** in order **to bequeath to his paternal brothers.** In both cases, the woman’s own relatives inherit her property.

אָמַר רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן מִשּׁוּם רַבִּי יְהוּדָה בֶּן רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן: דְּבַר תּוֹרָה – הָאָב יוֹרֵשׁ אֶת בְּנוֹ, וְאִשָּׁה יוֹרֶשֶׁת אֶת בְּנָהּ; שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: ״מַטּוֹת״ – מַקִּישׁ מַטֵּה הָאֵם לְמַטֵּה הָאָב, מָה מַטֵּה הָאָב – אָב יוֹרֵשׁ אֶת בְּנוֹ, אַף מַטֵּה הָאֵם – אִשָּׁה יוֹרֶשֶׁת אֶת בְּנָהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ With regard to the *halakha* that a mother inherits from her son, the Gemara notes that **Rabbi Yoḥanan says in the name of Rabbi Yehuda ben Rabbi Shimon: By Torah law a father inherits** from **his son, and a woman inherits** from **her son** if the father is no longer alive, **as it is stated** with regard to a woman receiving inheritance: “And every daughter who possesses an inheritance from the **tribes** of the children of Israel” (Numbers 36:8). Since the plural term “tribes” includes both her father’s tribe and her mother’s tribe, the verse **juxtaposes** the **tribe of the mother to the tribe of the father,** in that **just as** with regard to **the father’s tribe a father inherits** from **his son, so too,** with regard to **the mother’s tribe, a woman inherits** from **her son** if the father is deceased.
