Talmud for Nazir 4:1
דרבנין מאחר שנזיר טמא מביא אשם אינו נזיר:
If it becomes shadowy, the intermediate period (twilight) has arrived. If darkness has set in, so that the upper atmosphere has become indistinguishable from the lower, night has arrived. Rabbi says: When, at the period of the new moon, the sun commences to go down and the moon to appear, it is twilight.
Jerusalem Talmud Sotah
MISHNAH: What is the difference between a man and a woman? A man is dishevelled and with open seams221A man afflicted with skin disease must have dishevelled hair and wear clothes open at the seams (Lev.13:45). It is written in v. 44: He is a man with skin disease., no woman is dishevelled and with open seams. A man can make his son a nazir222Mishnah Nazir 4:6. The nazir is forbidden all grape products, may not cut any hair, and may not defile himself in the impurity of the dead. A father can decree that his underage son be a nazir as long as neither the child nor the relatives object. He then is responsible for the cost of all sacrifices due at the end of the nezirut period., no woman can make her son a nazir. A man can shave using his father’s vow of nazir223“Shaving” stands here for the entire ceremony which ends the nezirut period, Num. 6:13–21. If both father and adult son were nezirim, the father had already bought the required sacrifices (one male and one female sheep, and one ram) when he died before using them, the father’s dedication is validly transferred to the son., no woman can shave using her father’s vow of nazir. A man can betrothe his daughter224If a man marries off his underage daughter, the marriage is valid by biblical standards. This is derived from Deut. 22:16, where the father declares: I gave my daughter to this man as a wife. After the father’s death, the widow may only marry off her underage daughter by rabbinic standards. A fully adult daughter must find her own husband., no woman can betrothe her daughter. A man can sell his daughter225Ex. 21:7: “If a man sell his daughter as a slave”. In rabbinic theory, the institution of Hebrew slavery was bound to that of the Jubilee year. The latter is predicated on the clan holdings of land received under Joshua. Therefore, the Jubilee year should have been disestablished with the first Assyrian deportations of the Ten Tribes., no woman can sell her daughter. A man is stoned naked226Mishnah Sanhedrin 6:3–4., no woman is stoned naked. A man is hanged227Deut. 21:22: “If a man was guilty of a capital crime and executed, you should hang him on a wooden pole.” This refers explicitly to a man., no woman is hanged. A man is sold for his theft, no woman is sold for her theft.
