Introduction

Hebrew Text

[edit]
רבי אליעזר בן יעקוב אומר:
ישראל שנשא גיורת —
בתו כשרה לכהונה;
וגר שנשא בת ישראל —
בתו כשרה לכהונה.
אבל גר שנשא גיורת —
בתו פסולה לכהונה.
אחד גרים ואחד עבדים משוחררים,
אפילו עד עשרה דורות,
עד שתהא אימן מישראל.
רבי יוסי אומר:
אף גר שנשא גיורת —
בתו כשרה לכהונה.

English Translation

[edit]
Rabbi Eliezer ben Yaakov says:
An [ordinary] Jew who married a female convert —
his daughter is fit to [marry into] the priesthood;
and a male convert who married the daughter of an [ordinary] Jew —
his daughter is fit to [marry into] the priesthood.
But a male convert who married a female convert —
his daughter is unfit to [marry into] the priesthood.
It is the same for converts and for freed servants,
even until ten generations,
until their mother is a Jew.
Rabbi Yosi says:
Even a male convert who married a female convert —
his daughter is fit to [marry into] the priesthood.
