(续上)……是照 拉比犹大 的意见立他的规条。后者说:经上说「直到你们把供物带来献给你们神的那一天,你们不可吃饼,也不可吃烘的子粒与新穗子」(利未记 23:14),这不是教十六日早晨东方天边一亮就可吃新谷,而是禁到那日的本身;他又以为「直到」是包括在内的。若是这样,按妥拉之律,新谷要到十六日结束后才许吃,除非 初熟之捆 已献上,那样献后立刻就可吃。

……是照 拉比犹大 的意见说他的定规,拉比犹大 说:当经上说「直到你们把供物带来献给你们神的那一天,你们不可吃饼,也不可吃烘的子粒与新穗子」(利未记 23:14)时,这并不是教导人在十六日早晨、东方天边一被照亮时就可以吃新谷。
stated his decree in accordance with the opinion of Rabbi Yehuda, who said: When the verse states: “And you shall eat neither bread nor parched corn, nor fresh stalks, until this selfsame [etzem] day, until you have brought the offering of your God” (Leviticus 23:14), this does not teach that it is permitted to eat the new grain on the morning of the sixteenth when the eastern horizon is illuminated.
「那一天」原文 etzem(עֶצֶם,「本体」),拉比犹大 读作 atzmo(עַצְמוֹ,「那日的本身」)。中文不写罗马字。

而是,它被禁止直到那一日的本身。
Rather, it is prohibited until the essence [atzmo] of the day.
-
而他认为:当经上说「直到那一天」时,意思是直到并包括这一日。
And he holds that when the verse says: Until that day, it means until and including this date.
-
若是这样,按妥拉之律,吃新谷只在十六日结束以后才被许可,除非 初熟之捆 供物已经献上,在那情形里,献后立刻就可以吃新谷。
If so, by Torah law, eating the new grain is permitted only after the conclusion of the sixteenth, unless the omer offering was sacrificed, in which case it is permitted to eat the new grain immediately afterward.
