(6) A woman waiting for levirate marriage whether from one or for two brothers-in-law: Rabbi Eliezer says: he can annul [her vows]. Rabbi Yehoshua says: [only if she waits] for one, but not for two. Rabbi Akiva says: neither for one nor for two. Rabbi Eliezer said: with a man whom he acquired for himself, he can annul her vows, for a woman bequeathed to him by Heaven is it not logical that he can break her vows! Rabbi Akiva said to him: No! If you speak of a woman whom he acquires for himself, that is because others have no rights in her; will you say [the same] of a woman given to him by Heaven, in whom others too have rights! Rabbi Yehoshua said to him: Akiva, your words apply to two brothers-in-law; but what will you answer if there is only one brother-in-law? He said to him: the dead husband's wife is not as completely acquired to the brother-in-law as a betrothed girl is to her [betrothed] husband.
(7) One who says to his wife, “All vows which you vow from now until I return from such and such a place behold, they are upheld,” he has not said anything. "[All vows which you may vow from now until I return from such and such a place], behold, they are annulled,”: Rabbi Eliezer says: they are annulled. The Sages say: they are not annulled. Said Rabbi Eliezer: if he can annul vows which have already had the force of a prohibition, surely he can annul those which have not had the force of prohibition! They said to him: behold, it is said, “Her husband may uphold it, and her husband may annul it” (Numbers 30:14), that which has entered the category of upholding, has entered the category of annulment; but that which has not entered the category of upholding, has not entered the category of annulment.
(8) The annulment of vows is the whole day. This may result in a stringency or in a leniency. How is this so? If she vowed on the eve of the Sabbath, he can annul on the eve of the Sabbath and on the Sabbath day until nightfall. If she vowed just before nightfall, he can annul only until nightfall: for if night fell and he had not annulled it, he can no longer annul it.
(א) וְאֵלּוּ נְדָרִים שֶׁהוּא מֵפֵר, דְּבָרִים שֶׁיֵּשׁ בָּהֶם עִנּוּי נֶפֶשׁ, אִם אֶרְחָץ וְאִם לֹא אֶרְחָץ, אִם אֶתְקַשֵּׁט וְאִם לֹא אֶתְקַשֵּׁט. אָמַר רַבִּי יוֹסֵי, אֵין אֵלּוּ נִדְרֵי עִנּוּי נָפֶשׁ:
(1) And these are the vows which he can annul: vows which involve self-denial. “If I bathe” or “If I do not bathe;” “If I adorn myself,” or, “If I do not adorn myself.” Rabbi Yose said: these are not vows of self-denial.
