## Shabbat Daf 57b

###### Shabbat 57b:1
[Shabbat 57b:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:1)

הָכָא בְּקַטְלָא עָסְקִינַן, דְּאִשָּׁה חוֹנֶקֶת אֶת עַצְמָהּ — דְּנִיחָא לַהּ שֶׁתֵּרָאֶה כְּבַעֲלַת בָּשָׂר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Here we are dealing with a broad, ornamented strap [*katla*]** hanging around the neck, to which a small bib is attached. **A woman does strangle herself** with a *katla* because the strap is broad and tightening it does not cause pain. She tightens it **because it pleases her that she will appear fleshy.** It was considered beautiful to have flesh protrude from the *katla*.


###### Shabbat 57b:2
[Shabbat 57b:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:2)

רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר שֶׁל צֶמֶר וְשֶׁל שֵׂעָר אֵין חוֹצְצִין, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהַמַּיִם בָּאִין בָּהֶן.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
In the same mishna in tractate *Mikvaot*, **Rabbi Yehuda says:** Strings **of wool and** strands **of hair do not interpose** and invalidate the immersion **because the water reaches through them.**


###### Shabbat 57b:3
[Shabbat 57b:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:3)

אָמַר רַב יוֹסֵף אָמַר רַב יְהוּדָה אָמַר שְׁמוּאֵל: הֲלָכָה כְּרַבִּי יְהוּדָה בְּחוּטֵי שֵׂעָר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Yosef said** that **Rav Yehuda said** that **Shmuel said: The *halakha* is in accordance with** the opinion of **Rabbi Yehuda with regard to strands of hair.** However, the *halakha* is not in accordance with his opinion with regard to wool strings.


###### Shabbat 57b:4
[Shabbat 57b:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:4)

אֲמַר לֵיהּ אַבָּיֵי: הֲלָכָה, מִכְּלָל דִּפְלִיגִי!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Abaye said to him:** By saying that the ***halakha*** is in accordance with Rav Yehuda, **by inference** the Rabbis **disagree** with regard to strands of hair. However, no opinion stating that strands of hair constitute an interposition is cited in the mishna.


###### Shabbat 57b:5
[Shabbat 57b:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:5)

וְכִי תֵּימָא, אִי לָאו דְּשָׁמְעֵיהּ לְתַנָּא קַמָּא דְּאַיְּירִי בְּחוּטֵי שֵׂעָר, אִיהוּ נָמֵי לָא הֲוָה מַיְירֵי — וְדִילְמָא ״כְּשֵׁם״ קָאָמַר לְהוּ: כִּי הֵיכִי דְּמוֹדִיתוּ לִי בְּחוּטֵי שֵׂעָר, אוֹדוֹ לִי נָמֵי בְּחוּטֵי צֶמֶר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**And if you say** that **had we not heard from the first *tanna* that he is speaking of strands of hair,** Rabbi Yehuda **would also not have spoken** about them. Apparently, the first *tanna* prohibited strands of hair, and Rabbi Yehuda disagreed with him. Nevertheless, it could be explained otherwise. **And, perhaps he** prefaced what he **was saying** to the Rabbis with the phrase: **Just as. Just as you agree with me** that **strands of hair** do not interpose, **agree with me** that **strings of wool also** do not interpose. The fact that he mentioned strands of hair does not indicate a dispute; on the contrary, it is an attempt to establish a consensus with regard to the *halakha*.


###### Shabbat 57b:6
[Shabbat 57b:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:6)

אִיתְּמַר, אָמַר רַב נַחְמָן אָמַר שְׁמוּאֵל: מוֹדִים חֲכָמִים לְרַבִּי יְהוּדָה בְּחוּטֵי שֵׂעָר.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Indeed, **it was stated** that **Rav Naḥman said** that **Shmuel said: The Rabbis agree with Rabbi Yehuda with regard to strands of hair.**


###### Shabbat 57b:7
[Shabbat 57b:7](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:7)

תַּנְיָא נָמֵי הָכִי: חוּטֵי צֶמֶר חוֹצְצִין, חוּטֵי שֵׂעָר אֵין חוֹצְצִין. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר: שֶׁל צֶמֶר וְשֶׁל שֵׂעָר אֵין חוֹצְצִין.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**This** opinion **was also taught** in a *baraita*: **Strings of wool interpose. Strands of hair do not interpose. Rabbi Yehuda says: Both** strings **of wool and** strands **of hair do not interpose.**


###### Shabbat 57b:8
[Shabbat 57b:8](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:8)

אָמַר רַב נַחְמָן בַּר יִצְחָק: מַתְנִיתִין נָמֵי דַּיְקָא, דְּקָתָנֵי: יוֹצְאָה אִשָּׁה בְּחוּטֵי שֵׂעָר, בֵּין מִשֶּׁלָּה בֵּין מִשֶּׁל חֲבֶרְתָּהּ. מַנִּי? אִילֵימָא רַבִּי יְהוּדָה — אֲפִילּוּ חוּטֵי צֶמֶר נָמֵי! אֶלָּא לָאו רַבָּנַן הִיא, וּשְׁמַע מִינַּהּ בְּחוּטֵי שֵׂעָר לָא פְּלִיגִי. שְׁמַע מִינַּהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Naḥman bar Yitzḥak said:** The language of **the mishna is also precise,** as we learned in a mishna in our chapter: **A woman may go out with strands of hair whether** they are **from her** own hair or **whether** they are **from** the hair of **another. Whose** opinion **is** expressed in this mishna? **If you say** that it is the opinion of **Rabbi Yehuda, even strings of wool** should **also** have been permitted. **Rather, is it not the** opinion of **the Rabbis; and conclude from it** that **with regard to strands of hair, they do not disagree?** The Gemara determines: Indeed, **conclude from it.**


###### Shabbat 57b:9
[Shabbat 57b:9](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:9)

לֹא בְּ״טוֹטֶפֶת״. מַאי ״טוֹטֶפֶת״? אָמַר רַב יוֹסֵף: חוּמַרְתָּא דִקְטִיפְתָּא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
The mishna said that a woman may **not** go out **with** the ornament called a ***totefet*.** The Gemara asks: **What is a *totefet*? Rav Yosef said: A packet of spices** to ward off the evil eye.


###### Shabbat 57b:10
[Shabbat 57b:10](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:10)

אֲמַר לֵיהּ אַבָּיֵי: תִּהְוֵי כְּקָמֵיעַ מוּמְחֶה, וְתִשְׁתְּרֵי!

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Abaye said to him: And let** the legal status of **this** packet **be like** that of **an effective amulet,** whose effectiveness is proven, **and** it should **be permitted,** as an effective amulet may be moved on Shabbat.


###### Shabbat 57b:11
[Shabbat 57b:11](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:11)

אֶלָּא אָמַר רַב יְהוּדָה מִשְּׁמֵיהּ דְּאַבָּיֵי: אֲפוּזְיָינֵי. תַּנְיָא נָמֵי הָכִי: יוֹצְאָה אִשָּׁה בִּסְבָכָה הַמּוּזְהֶבֶת, וּבְטוֹטֶפֶת וּבְסַרְבִּיטִין הַקְּבוּעִין בָּהּ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rather, Rav Yehuda said in the name of Abaye:** A *totefet* is an ***appuzainu*,** an ornament worn on the forehead. This opinion **was also taught** in a *baraita*: **A woman may go out with a gilded hairnet** worn to hold the hair in place, **and with the *totefet,* and with the *sarvitin* that are fastened to the hairnet,** since a woman would not remove her head covering to show her friend those ornaments.


###### Shabbat 57b:12
[Shabbat 57b:12](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:12)

אֵיזוֹ טוֹטֶפֶת וְאֵיזוֹ סַרְבִּיטִין? אָמַר רַבִּי אֲבָהוּ: טוֹטֶפֶת — הַמּוּקֶּפֶת לָהּ מֵאֹזֶן לְאֹזֶן. סַרְבִּיטִין — הַמַּגִּיעִין לָהּ עַד לְחָיֶיהָ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
And they said: **Which is a *totefet* and which is *sarvitin*? Rabbi Abbahu said: *Totefet* is that which goes around her** forehead **from ear to ear. *Sarvitin* are those** attached to the net **that reach** down **to her cheeks.**


###### Shabbat 57b:13
[Shabbat 57b:13](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:13)

אָמַר רַב הוּנָא: עֲנִיּוֹת עוֹשִׂין אוֹתָן שֶׁל מִינֵי צִבְעוֹנִין, עֲשִׁירוֹת עוֹשִׂין אוֹתָן שֶׁל כֶּסֶף וְשֶׁל זָהָב.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rav Huna said: Poor women make** these ornaments **from** different **types of colored** materials. **Wealthy women make them of silver and of gold.**


###### Shabbat 57b:14
[Shabbat 57b:14](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:14)

וְלֹא בְּכָבוּל. אָמַר רַבִּי יַנַּאי: כָּבוּל זֶה אֵינִי יוֹדֵעַ מַהוּ: אִי כַּבְלָא דְעַבְדָּא תְּנַן — אֲבָל כִּיפָּה שֶׁל צֶמֶר שַׁפִּיר דָּמֵי, אוֹ דִילְמָא כִּיפָּה שֶׁל צֶמֶר תְּנַן — וְכָל שֶׁכֵּן כַּבְלָא דְעַבְדָּא.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
We learned in the mishna that a woman may **not** go out with **a *kavul*. Rabbi Yannai said: This *kavul*, I do not know what it is. Is it the seal of a slave,** who would have a seal on his clothing identifying him as a slave, about **which we learned** in our mishna that it is prohibited, **but a cap of wool** that a woman places on her hair, she may **well** go out wearing it? **Or, perhaps we learned** in our mishna that going out with **a cap of wool** is prohibited **and all the more so** that going out with **the seal of a slave** is prohibited.


###### Shabbat 57b:15
[Shabbat 57b:15](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:15)

אָמַר רַבִּי אֲבָהוּ: מִסְתַּבְּרָא כְּמַאן דְּאָמַר כִּיפָּה שֶׁל צֶמֶר תְּנַן. וְתַנְיָא נָמֵי הָכִי: יוֹצְאָה אִשָּׁה בְּכָבוּל וּבְאִיסְטָמָא לֶחָצֵר, רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר אוֹמֵר: אַף בְּכָבוּל לִרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים. כְּלָל אָמַר רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר: כׇּל שֶׁהוּא לְמַטָּה מִן הַשְּׂבָכָה — יוֹצְאִין בּוֹ, כׇּל שֶׁהוּא לְמַעְלָה מִן הַשְּׂבָכָה — אֵין יוֹצְאִין בּוֹ.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**Rabbi Abbahu said: It is reasonable** to say **in accordance with the one who said** that **we learned** about **a cap of wool** in the mishna. **And this** opinion **was also taught** in a *baraita*: **A woman may go out with a *kavul* and with an *istema* to the courtyard** on Shabbat. **Rabbi Shimon ben Elazar says:** She may **even** go out **with the *kavul* into the public domain. Rabbi Shimon ben Elazar stated a principle: Anything that is** worn **beneath the hairnet,** a woman **may go out** into the public domain **with it,** since a woman will not uncover her hair even to show off an ornament while in the public domain. **Anything that is** worn **over the hairnet,** like an ornamental hat, a woman **may not go out with it.** From the context and proximity of the *halakha* dealing with *kavul* to the statement of Rabbi Shimon ben Elazar, apparently a *kavul* is a wool cap worn under the net.


###### Shabbat 57b:16
[Shabbat 57b:16](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:16)

מַאי ״אִיסְטָמָא״? אָמַר רַבִּי אֲבָהוּ: בִּיזְיוֹנֵי. מַאי ״בִּיזְיוֹנֵי״? אָמַר אַבָּיֵי אָמַר רַב: כָּלְיָא פָּרוֹחֵי.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
Since *istema* was mentioned in the *baraita*, the Gemara asks: **What is an *istema*? Rabbi Abbahu said:** *Istema* is a ***beizyunei*.** However, Rabbi Abbahu’s explanation employed a term from the Aramaic dialect spoken in Eretz Yisrael, which was not understood in Babylonia. Therefore, they asked there: **What is** a ***beizyunei***? **Abaye said** that **Rav said:** It is a small hat or ribbon used to **gather hairs that protrude [*kalya paruḥei*]** from the headdress.


###### Shabbat 57b:17
[Shabbat 57b:17](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:17)

תָּנוּ רַבָּנַן, שְׁלֹשָׁה דְּבָרִים נֶאֶמְרוּ בְּאִיסְטָמָא: אֵין בָּהּ מִשּׁוּם כִּלְאַיִם, וְאֵינָהּ מְטַמְּאָה בִּנְגָעִים, וְאֵין יוֹצְאִין בָּהּ לִרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים.

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**The Sages taught** in the *Tosefta* that **three things were said with regard to an *istema*: There is no** prohibition of a mixture of **diverse kinds,** wool and linen, **in it.** Since it is made of hard felt and not woven together, the prohibition of diverse kinds does not apply to material of that kind. **And it does not become impure with** the ritual impurity of **leprosy.** Only woven garments can become impure with leprosy. **And** women **may not go out with it to the public domain** on Shabbat.


###### Shabbat 57b:18
[Shabbat 57b:18](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Shabbat/r/57b:18)

מִשּׁוּם רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אָמְרוּ: אַף

**William Davidson Edition - English:**
**In the name of Rabbi Shimon they said: Also,**
