(续上)……这是教导:约书亚那一夜在 哈拉哈 的深处过夜,与以色列民一同研读妥拉。拉夫撒母耳·巴尔·伊尼亚 说:研读妥拉比献常献祭更大,因为天使说「我现在来了」。既然如此,拉比犹大·哈纳西 家的众贤怎能断定圣殿事奉比研读妥拉更要紧?

……这是教导:他在 哈拉哈 的深处过夜,就是说,他那一夜与以色列民一同研读妥拉。
This teaches that he spent the night in the depths [be’umeka] of halakha, i.e., that he spent the night studying Torah with the Jewish people.
「深处」原文 בעומקה,与约书亚记 8:13「山谷」(העמק)同根取义。

拉夫撒母耳·巴尔·伊尼亚 说:研读妥拉比献常献祭更大,因为经上说:「我现在来了」(约书亚记 5:14),这表明天使来,是责备约书亚荒废了研读妥拉,而不是荒废了常献祭。
And Rav Shmuel bar Unya said: Torah study is greater than sacrificing the daily offerings, as it is stated: “I have come now” (Joshua 5:14), indicating that the angel came to rebuke Joshua for neglecting Torah study and not for neglecting the daily offering.
和合本 5:14 作「我现在是来作耶和华军队的元帅」;讲法系于「现在」(指夜间所荒废的妥拉研读),照革玛拉读法译。英译拼作 Rav Shmuel bar Unya,照库中定名写。

如此说来,拉比犹大·哈纳西 家的众贤怎么断定圣殿事奉比研读妥拉更要紧呢?
Consequently, how did the Sages of the house of Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi determine that the Temple service is more important than Torah study?
