The Gemara cites a lengthy, five-part Beraisa which discusses the applications of "Nisroknah." The RAN explains the Chidush of each part. Some of the Ran's comments are difficult to follow. At some points he writes that if the father or the husband did Hafarah and then died, the woman's Neder is considered to have been weakened, while elsewhere he writes that if the father or the husband did Hafarah and then died, the Hafarah is ineffectual and does not weaken the Neder.

We continue our exploration of vows and oaths including the way the Dead Sea community interpreted the biblical verse (Num 30:17)
