Nedarim 58 - Peeling the Layers of the Onion Problem
Rabbi Richard Hidary
Yishmael asks about the onion bulb from 7 that grew in 8thyear Rabbi Ami doesn’t know Rabbi Yannai Terumah that grew is permitted Rabbi Yohanan grafted branch with fruit is prohibited Rabbi Yonatan onion in a vineyard is prohibited Rabbi Ami - Rabbi Yohanan – onions planted must take maaser. Rejected b/c stringent Sheviit is not batel. Rejected b/c stringent. Onions on ground sprouted in 8thyear permitted. Maybe crushed. Weeding with suspected Jew after Sheviit is permitted. Challege to Rabbi Yohanan and Rabbi Yonatan? Shemita is different because prohibition and nullification are from the ground. Dedicated by Mourad Shehebar for Refuah Shelemah of Chaya Sarah Bat Simcha
