סוטה פרק ה׳ משנה ה׳
Bartenura
מאהבה – that he loved “the place” (i.e., God).
שקול – the weight will be equivalent, not outweighing to one side or the other, and he holds the Biblical verse with the letter “Vav,” and its implication is that the Biblical verse ended with a “Vav.” "הן יקטלני"–He may well slay me (Job 13:15) – though he kills me, “yet I will trust in Him no longer,” or, “yet I will trust in Him.” (whether one reads the word as לא or לו ).
מיראה – from fear of retribution that will not come upon him.
ירא אלהים – and he doesn’t love God.
מאהבה. שאהב את המקום:
שקול. משקלו שוה אינו מכריע לכאן ולכאן. יש לו הכתוב בוי״ו ומשמעותו כאילו היה לא באל״ף. ויש לא באל״ף ומשמעותו כאילו כתוב בוי״ו. הן יקטלני, הלא הוא הורגני לא איחל לו עוד. או לו אני מיחל:
מיראה. מדאגת פורענות שלא תבא עליו:
ירא אלהים. ולא אוהב אלהים:
