הלכה: מַה טַעֲמָא דְּרִבִּי יוֹסֵי. שֵׁם אָבִיו קָרוּי עָלָיו. עַל דַּעְתֵּיהּ דְּרִבִּי יוֹסֵי הַנּוֹדֵר מִן הַיַּיִן מוּתָּר בְּקוֹנְדִּיטוֹן.

HALAKHAH: 146In ms. and editio princeps, Halakhah 14 is the next paragraph.: What is Rebbi Yose’s reason? Is its father’s name called upon it147Since the name “cabbage” does not appear in asparagos, the vow concerning cabbage cannot extend to as paragos.? In the opinion of Rebbi Yose, if somebody makes a vow to abstain from wine, he is permitted spiced wine148Latin condition (vinum), cf. Berakhot 6:5, Note 157..

מִן הַכְּרוּב אָסוּר בְּאִיסְפָּרָגוֹס כול׳. מִן הַגְּרִיסִין אָסוּר בַּמִּקְפָּה. וְהוּא שֶׁיְּהֵא רוּבָּן גְּרִיסִין. מִן הַמִּקְפָּה אָסוּר בַּשּׁוּם. וְהוּא שֶׁיְּהֵא רוּבָּן שׁוּם. וְהָכָא אַתְּ מְהַלֵּךְ אַחַר הַטַּעַם וָכָא אַתְּ מְהַלֵּךְ אַחַר הָרוֹב.

“From cabbage, he is forbidden cabbage shoot,” etc. “From groats, he is forbidden groat soup,” only if most of it is groats. “From soup he is forbidden garlic,” only if most of it is garlic? In that case, you go after the taste, in the other after the main ingredient149Spices are forbidden as long as they can be tasted; bland food only as long as it is the main ingredient..
