קדושים, פרק ד 1

Sifra · Kedoshim, Chapter 4, Chapter 1

‹›
  1. 1

    [א] "לא תעשו עול במשפט" – בדין. מלמד שהדיין המקלקל את הדין קרוי עול, שנאוי, משוקץ, חרם, ותועבה. וגורם לחמשה דברים: מטמא את הארץ, ומחלל את השם, ומסלק את השכינה, ומפיל את ישראל בחרב, ומגלה אותו מארצו.

    1) (Vayikra 19:15) ("You shall not do wrong in judgment. You shall not lift up the face of the poor man, and you shall not favor the face of the great one. In righteousness shall you judge your neighbor.") "You shall not do wrong in judgment.": We are hereby taught that a judge who perverts justice is called "wrong," "hated," "revolting," "rejected,." "abominable," and he leads to five things: He defiles the sanctuary, he desecrates the Name, he drives out the shechinah, he causes Israel to fall by the sword, and he exiles it from its land.
