1
One who says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a tenth of an ephah for a meal offering, must bring a meal offering of one-tenth. If he says: It is incumbent upon me to bring tenths of an ephah, he must bring two-tenths, as that is the minimum plural amount. If he says: I specified several tenths of an ephah but I do not know which number I specified, he must bring sixty-tenths, as that is the maximum amount of a meal offering. The flour beyond the amount that he actually specified is rendered a voluntary meal offering. If one says: It is incumbent upon me to bring a meal offering, he may bring whichever meal offering that he wishes, i.e., the fine-flour meal offering, the shallow-pan or deep-pan meal offering, or the meal offering baked in an oven in the form of loaves or wafers. Rabbi Yehuda says: He must bring the fine-flour meal offering, as it is the most notable of the meal offerings.

ืืจื ืขืื ืขืฉืจืื. ืคืืจืฉืชื โ I will bring several Esronim but I donโt know how many I stated.
ืืืื ืฉืฉืื ืขืฉืจืื ืื โ for if he vowed less than this, it does not matter to him, for it teaches [in the Mishnah] and he states: โWhat that I expressly said will be for my vow, and the rest will be for a free-will offering.โ But more than this one does not have to supply, for one meal-offering is not larger than sixty Issarons (see Tractate Menahot, Chapter 12, Mishnah 4).
ืืจื ืขืื ืื ืื โ a person who states, โI pledge myself to bring a mere grain-offering.โ
ืืืื ืืืื ืฉืืจืฆื โ from the five meal offerings (explained in the Torah: choice flour, in a deep and covered pan, in a pan โ without a lid, baked loaves and baked wafers).
ืืืืืืช โ which is called a mere meal/grain-offering, but it does not have a differentiating epithet, for all of the rest of the meal/grain-offerings have a differentiating epithet, the meal offering of the pan-without a lid, the meal-offering of the deep covered pan, the meal-offering that is baked. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Yehuda.
