###### Nazir 28b:1
[Nazir 28b:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:1)

תַּנָּא דִידַן סָבַר: כֵּיוָן דְּאִיזְדְּרִיק עֲלַהּ דָּם, לְאַלְתַּר שַׁרְיָא בְּחַמְרָא, וְהָא לֵית לַהּ נִיוּוּל. וְרַבִּי עֲקִיבָא סָבַר: אֲפִילּוּ אִישְׁתְּחִיטַת בְּהֵמָה — אֵינוֹ יָכוֹל לְהָפֵר, מִשּׁוּם הֶפְסֵד קָדָשִׁים.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**The *tanna* of our** mishna **holds: Once** the **blood has been sprinkled on her behalf** she is **immediately permitted** to drink **wine, and** therefore **she is not downcast.** Consequently, the husband has no right to nullify her naziriteship vow at that point, as her vow does not affect him. **And Rabbi Akiva holds: Even** if the blood has yet to be sprinkled and wine remains forbidden to her, as soon as **an animal is slaughtered** for one of her offerings the husband **can no** longer **nullify** the vow, **due to the loss of consecrated** property. If he were to nullify her vow she would have no further need of the offerings, and it is prohibited to waste Sanctuary property.


###### Nazir 28b:2
[Nazir 28b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:2)

מַתְקֵיף לַהּ רַבִּי זֵירָא: וְאַמַּאי? לִזְרוֹק דָּמָן שֶׁלֹּא לִשְׁמָן, וְיַתִּיר בָּשָׂר בַּאֲכִילָה! מִי לָא תַּנְיָא: כִּבְשֵׂי עֲצֶרֶת שֶׁשְּׁחָטָן שֶׁלֹּא לִשְׁמָן, אוֹ שֶׁשְּׁחָטָן לִפְנֵי זְמַנָּן אוֹ לְאַחַר זְמַנָּן — הַדָּם יִזָּרֵק וְהַבָּשָׂר יֵאָכֵל.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rabbi Zeira objects to this: And why** should the result be a loss to the Sanctuary? He can avoid this by **sprinkling their blood not for the sake** of the offerings of a nazirite, **and he will** thereby **permit the meat** of the offering to **be eaten,** and the consecrated animal will not go to waste. **Isn’t it taught** in a *baraita*: With regard to the communal peace-offering of two **sheep** that accompanies the two loaves on ***Shavuot*, if one slaughtered them not for the sake** of that offering, **or slaughtered them before their time,** on the eve of the Festival, **or after their time,** after the Festival, **the blood shall be sprinkled,** although not for the sake of that offering, as it is no longer fit for that purpose, **and the meat is eaten.**


###### Nazir 28b:3
[Nazir 28b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:3)

וְאִם הָיְתָה שַׁבָּת — לֹא יִזָּרֵק. וְאִם זָרַק — הוּרְצָה, לְהַקְטִיר אֵימוּרִין לָעֶרֶב!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**And if it was a Shabbat,** the blood **may not be sprinkled.** Since the meat cannot be eaten on that day, sprinkling the blood is considered a form of unnecessary labor on Shabbat. **And if he sprinkled** the blood on Shabbat anyway, the offering **is accepted,** and he must wait **to burn** its sacrificial **parts** on the altar **in the evening,** after the conclusion of Shabbat. In any case, this shows that it is permitted to sprinkle the blood of an offering not for its own sake *ab initio* so that its flesh can be eaten.


###### Nazir 28b:4
[Nazir 28b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:4)

אָמְרִי: אִי דִּשְׁחַט עוֹלָה אוֹ שְׁלָמִים — הָכִי נָמֵי. אֶלָּא הָכָא בְּמַאי עָסְקִינַן, כְּגוֹן שֶׁשָּׁחַט חַטָּאת בְּרֵישָׁא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Sages **say** in response: **If he had slaughtered** only the woman’s naziriteship offerings of the **burnt-offering or** the **peace-offering, so too,** he may certainly proceed to sprinkle the blood not for the sake of that offering, to avoid the loss of a consecrated animal. In that case Rabbi Akiva would agree that the husband can still nullify her vow. **However, with what are we dealing here?** It is with a case **where he slaughtered the sin-offering first.** Since a sin-offering whose blood was sprinkled not for its sake is invalid, if the husband were to nullify her vow this would cause a loss of consecrated property.


###### Nazir 28b:5
[Nazir 28b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:5)

כְּדִתְנַן: אִם גִּילַּח עַל אַחַת מִשְּׁלׇשְׁתָּן — יָצָא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara cites the source that the order of a nazirite’s offerings may be changed and the sin-offering may be sacrificed first. **As we learned** in a mishna (45a): **If he shaved** after the sacrifice **of one of the three** nazirite offerings, either the burnt-offering, the peace-offering, or the sin-offering, **he has fulfilled** his obligation.


###### Nazir 28b:6
[Nazir 28b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:6)

בַּמֶּה דְּבָרִים אֲמוּרִים — בְּתִגְלַחַת טׇהֳרָה. אֲבָל בְּתִגְלַחַת טוּמְאָה — יָפֵר (מִפְּנֵי שֶׁיָּכוֹל לוֹמַר: אִי אֶפְשִׁי בְּאִשָּׁה מְנֻוֶּולֶת). וְרַבִּי מֵאִיר אוֹמֵר: אֲפִילּוּ בְּתִגְלַחַת טׇהֳרָה — יָפֵר, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁיָּכוֹל לוֹמַר: אִי אֶפְשִׁי בְּאִשָּׁה מְגַלַּחַת.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
§ The mishna taught: **In what** case **is this statement,** that a husband cannot nullify his wife’s vow, **said?** It is **with regard to a shaving of ritual purity; however, with regard to a shaving of impurity** the husband can **nullify** it if he wishes. **And Rabbi Meir says: He may even nullify** the vow **at** her **shaving of purity because he can say: I do not want a shaven wife.**


###### Nazir 28b:7
[Nazir 28b:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:7)

וְתַנָּא קַמָּא אָמַר לָךְ: אֶפְשָׁר בְּפֵאָה נׇכְרִית. וְרַבִּי מֵאִיר סָבַר: בְּפֵאָה נׇכְרִית, אַיְּידֵי דְּזוּהֲמָא — לָא נִיחָא לֵיהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The Gemara analyzes these opinions: **And the first *tanna*** could have **said to you** in response to Rabbi Meir’s argument: It is **possible** for her to compensate **by** wearing **a wig,** and therefore she would not appear shaven, and her husband would have no cause for complaint. **And Rabbi Meir holds:** As for compensating **by** wearing **a wig, since** it is **dirty he is not amenable** to this solution, and he may therefore nullify her vow.


###### Nazir 28b:8
[Nazir 28b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:8)

**מַתְנִי׳** הָאִישׁ מַדִּיר אֶת בְּנוֹ בְּנָזִיר, וְאֵין הָאִשָּׁה מַדֶּרֶת אֶת בְּנָהּ בְּנָזִיר. כֵּיצַד? גִּילַּח, אוֹ שֶׁגִּילְּחוּהוּ קְרוֹבָיו. מִיחָה, אוֹ שֶׁמִּיחוּ קְרוֹבָיו.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**MISHNA:** **A man can vow** that **his** minor **son should be a nazirite,** i.e., a father can declare his son a nazirite, **but a woman cannot vow** that **her son should be a nazirite. How so;** what are the details of this naziriteship? If the son **shaved** his hair, thereby demonstrating his rejection of the vow imposed by his father; **or** if **his relatives shaved him;** or if the son **objected** by saying that he has no desire for this naziriteship; **or if his relatives objected** on his behalf, the naziriteship is canceled.


###### Nazir 28b:9
[Nazir 28b:9](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:9)

הָיְתָה לוֹ בְּהֵמָה מוּפְרֶשֶׁת, הַחַטָּאת — תָּמוּת, וְהָעוֹלָה — תִּקְרַב עוֹלָה. וּשְׁלָמִים — יִקְרְבוּ שְׁלָמִים, וְנֶאֱכָלִין לְיוֹם אֶחָד, וְאֵינָן טְעוּנִין לֶחֶם.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
If this son who canceled the naziriteship **had animals separated** for his offerings, the one set aside for **the sin-offering must die, and the burnt-offering is sacrificed as a burnt-offering, and** the **peace-offering is sacrificed as a peace-offering. And** the peace-offering **is eaten for one day,** like the peace-offering of a nazirite, rather than the two days of a regular peace-offering, **and it does not require bread,** i.e., the loaves that accompany a nazirite’s peace-offering.


###### Nazir 28b:10
[Nazir 28b:10](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:10)

הָיוּ לוֹ מָעוֹת סְתוּמִין — יִפְּלוּ לִנְדָבָה. מָעוֹת מְפוֹרָשִׁים, דְּמֵי חַטָּאת — יֵלְכוּ לְיָם הַמֶּלַח, לֹא נֶהֱנִין וְלֹא מוֹעֲלִין. דְּמֵי עוֹלָה — יָבִיאוּ עוֹלָה, וּמוֹעֲלִין בָּהֶן, דְּמֵי שְׁלָמִים — יָבִיאוּ שְׁלָמִים וְנֶאֱכָלִין לְיוֹם אֶחָד, וְאֵינָן טְעוּנִין לֶחֶם.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
If **he had unallocated funds,** they **will be allocated for** communal **gift** offerings. If he had **allocated funds** for his offerings, **the money for the sin-offering is taken** and cast **into the Dead Sea,** as one may **not benefit** from it *ab initio*, **but** if he benefits **from it,** he is **not** liable to bring an offering for **misuse** of consecrated property. With **the money for** the **burnt-offering they bring a burnt-offering;** it is prohibited to derive benefit from those coins **and** if he benefits **from it,** he is liable to bring an offering for **misuse** of consecrated property. With **the money for** the **peace-offering they bring a peace-offering, and** it **is eaten for one day and does not require bread.**


###### Nazir 28b:11
[Nazir 28b:11](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Nazir/r/28b:11)

**גְּמָ׳** אִישׁ — אִין, אֲבָל אִשָּׁה — לָא. מַאי טַעְמָא? רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן אָמַר: הֲלָכָה הִיא בְּנָזִיר. וְרַבִּי יוֹסֵי בְּרַבִּי חֲנִינָא

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**GEMARA:** The mishna taught that **a man** can vow that his son should be a nazirite, **but a woman cannot** do so. The Gemara asks: **What is the reason** for this? **Rabbi Yoḥanan said: It is a *halakha*** transmitted to Moses from Sinai **with regard to a nazirite. And Rabbi Yosei, son of Rabbi Ḥanina,**
