Gedalya Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 What do these letters mean? ““M‘SH W” in the following mishnah? Is this a typo? D. Said R. Yose, “M‘SH W: Arsela led it out, and he was an Israelite.” (Yoma 6:3 The Mishnah: A New Translation) The hebrew of the mishnah states: מעשה והולכו ערסלא Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 If you search Neusner for M SH (replacing the ayin symbol with a space) you will see the pattern: he transliterates the word and the first letter of the next word, to indicate the start of a story or illustration.
