Abstract:
In the prevalent textual tradition of the Mishna, the tractate Shevuʿ ot ends with a complete and detailed eighth chapter, which includes an opening mishna, followed by a list of cases and concluding with a general principle. Examination of the textual evidence for this chapter reveals a textual tradition of the Mishna found in an eastern Genizah fragment of the Talmud Bavli, in which this chapter includes only two mishnayot - the opening mishna and the general principle that concludes the chapter, lacking the detailed list of cases that constitutes the bulk of the chapter. This leaner version corresponds to the scope of the chapter in the Talmud Bavli, which includes only two sugyot, and indeed is the shortest chapter in the Talmud Bavli. Additional sugyot found elsewhere in the Talmud Bavli corroborate this description. Undermining of the case list is apparent in the Tosefta as well. Furthermore, unusual data revealed by textual research indicates the possibility that the case list found in the Tosefta was added only at a later stage of editing. On the other hand, the sugyot of the Talmud Yerushalmi show that the case list did exist in its version of the Mishna. This finding corresponds to conclusions drawn from previous textual research of other sections of the Mishna, suggesting the possibility that the original mishna at the end of tractate Shevuʿ ot included only a brief appendix and thus it arrived in Bavel, whereas in Eretz Yisrael the general principle at the end of this version was expanded to a detailed list of cases and so until the brief appendix developed into a complete chapter.
