(Mishnah): Nezirus does not apply to Nochrim. It does apply to women and slaves.

There is a stringency of women over slaves. One can force his slave to transgress Nezirus, but he cannot force his wife.

Vows of slaves have a stringency that does not apply to vows of women: one can annul his wife's vows, but not his slave's vows.

If one annulled his wife's vow, it is permanently annulled. If one annulled his slave's vow, when the slave becomes free, he completes his Nezirus.

If a slave (who accepted Nezirus) fled from [his master], R. Meir says, he may not drink [wine];

R. Yosi says, he drinks.

(Gemara): "Bnei Yisrael" accept Nezirus, and Nochrim do not accept Nezirus.

Question: You say "[Bnei Yisrael...] Ish [Ish... Asher Yakriv]" - why does it [repeat] "Ish"? This includes Nochrim, that they vow Nedarim and Nedavos (Korbanos with and without Achrayus, respectively) like Yisrael.. Also here [you should say that Ish includes Nochrim]!

Answer: Here is different, for it says "v'Chiper Alav" - one who has Kaparah [through a Korban Chatas]. This excludes Nochrim, who do not have Kaparah.

(Mishnah): A Nochri - R. Meir says, he can be Ne'erach (others can pledge his Erech, to give to Hekdesh a fixed amount based on his age and gender), but he cannot be Ma'arich (pledge others' Erech); R. Yehudah says, he can be Ma'arich, but not Ne'erach;

Both of them agree that he can be Noder (pledge to give to Hekdesh someone's slave market value), and Nidar (others can pledge his slave value).

Question (R. Yirmeyah): The one who says that he can be Ma'arich, here he can be Mazir (impose Nezirus on others)? The one who says that he can be Ne'erach, here he can be Nizur (others impose Nezirus on him)?

Question: How can he be Nizur? If a Yisrael is Mazir a Nochri, will he heed him?!

Answer: Rather, the case is, a Yisrael said 'I am a Nazir', and the Nochri heard and said 'what he said is Alai.'

Rejection: He is only like one who pays a debt (he accepted to offer Korbanos for the Nazir. He did not accept Nezirus!)

Question: How can he be Mazur?

If a Nochri is Mazir a Yisrael - [this cannot be, for] a Yisrael cannot be Mazir a Yisrael. Can a Nochri be Mazir a Yisrael?!

Answer: Rather, a Nochri said 'I am a Nazir', and a Yisrael heard and said 'what he said is Alai.'

Question: If so, what does [the verse] exclude?! (Also a Yisrael is Mazir only in this way!)

Answer #1: A Yisrael has an Isur of Lo Yachel Devaro; a Nochri does not have an Isur of Bal Yachel.

Answer #2 (R. Yonah): A Yisrael can permit [his Nezirus] through a Chacham. A Nochri cannot permit through a Chacham.

Answer #3 (R. Yosi): A Yisrael can permit [his Nezirus] through a Chacham. A Nochri does not need a Chacham's Heter.

R. Yosi holds like R. Avahu;

A Nochris came in front of R. Avahu [to permit her vow]. He told Avimi bar Tuvi 'go make a Pesach for her through Nolad (a reason to regret it, based on something that occurred later, and permit it. Avimi was not a Chacham; he is not Rebbi Avimi bar Tuvi mentioned in Bava Basra (2:3). KORBAN HA'EDAH changes the text to say 'Bati bar Tuvi.')

R. Yonah holds like R. Acha, who said 'Lavan is Kushan Rish'asayim. Why was he called Kushan Rish'asayim? It is because he did two evils - one is, he profaned the Shevu'ah [not to cross Gal'ed]. And one is, he subjugated Yisrael for eight years.' (According to R. Yosi, perhaps he permitted his Shevu'ah, and did not transgress it.)
