Preface
The present volume is the seventh in this series of the Jerusalem Talmud,
the second in a five volume edition, translation, and Commentary of the
Third Order of this Talmud. The principles of the edition regarding text,
vocalization, and Commentary have been spelled out in detail in the
Introduction to the first volume. The text in this volume is based on the
manuscript text of the Yerushalmi edited by the Academy of the Hebrew
Language, Jerusalem 2001.
The extensive Commentary is not based on emendations; where
there is no evidence from manuscripts or early prints to correct evident
scribal errors, the proposed correction is given in the Notes. In response
to a suggestion by a reviewer, for each paragraph the folio and line
numbers of the text in the Krotoschin edition are added. It should
remembered that these numbers may differ from the editio princeps by
up to three lines. It seems to be important that a translation of the
Yerushalmi be accompanied by the text, to give the reader the possibility
to compare the interpretation with other translations.
Again I wish to thank my wife, Dr. Eva Guggenheimer, who acted
as critic, style editor, proof reader, and expert on the Latin and Greek
vocabulary. Her own notes on some possible Latin and Greek
etymologies are identified by (E. G.).
