A BIT MORE
1. According to Rebbi Yehoshua ben Levi, the sun stopped for 12 hours. Rebbi Elazar maintains that it stopped for 24 hours. Rav Shmuel bar Nachmeni maintains that it stopped for 36 hours. According to a second version, Rebbi Yehoshua ben Levi said the sun stopped for 24 hours; Rebbi Elazar said that it stopped for 36 hours; and Rav Shmuel bar Nachmeni said that it stopped for 48 hours.
2. However, the sun stopped longer for Yehoshua than for Moshe and Nakdimon ben Guryon. The hail stones that came down at the time of Yehoshua were unique. This never occurred before or after.
3. According to Rebbi Yochanan, Sefer ha'Yashar refers to Sefer Bereishis, the Sefer of Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yakov who were called Yesharim. Rebbi Elazar maintains that it refers to the Sefer of Mishneh Torah where it states, "You shall do the Yashar and Tov." Rav Shmuel bar Nachmeni maintains it refers to Sefer Shoftim where it says, "Each man did what was Yashar in his eyes."
4. Even though there are two women present, and each woman will be embarrassed to be Mezanah because of the presence of the other, there is a concern that both of them will allow themselves to be seduced.
5. However, it is only allowed if the men are Kosher. If they are Perutzim, a woman is forbidden to seclude herself even with ten men.
6. A wife will guard her husband. However, a Nochri wife does not guard her husband. Therefore, seclusion with a Nochri is forbidden even if his wife is present.
7. According to Rebbi Yirmeyah, she may seclude herself with a Nochri because the Nochri will be afraid to kill her because she is prominent. There is no concern that he will force her to have relations because she is not nice looking. According to Rav Idi bar Avin, we are never concerned that a Nochri will kill a woman who secludes herself with him. He will force her to have relations with him instead. This is a concern even if she is not nice looking. Therefore, a woman may never seclude herself with a Nochri.
8. If the Nochri attempts to kill him, he will have the use of his right hand for protection. Rebbi Yochanan ben Berokah maintains that if the Nochri has a sword, the Yisrael should keep him on his right because a sword is carried on the left side. However, if the Nochri is carrying a staff, the Yisrael should keep him to his left because a staff is carried on the right.
9. If they are ascending an incline, the Yisrael should make sure that the Nochri is behind him. If they are on the way down, he should make sure that the Nochri is ahead of him.
10. This is learned from Yakov, who told Esav that he was going to Se'ir when in fact he was going to Sukos.
