*21.6 Makkos Daf 14 A (6 lines Up)*

*21.6 Makkos Daf 14 A (6 lines Up)*The Chachomim (Rabbi Yishamel and Rabbi Akiva) explain that the Torah’s specification of _kareis_ regarding a sister discussing a hypothetical case of “a wicked man, son of a wicked man” where one woman is actually three types of sister-prohibitions; the Torah specifies that there are three liabilities for such a case.Rabbi Yitzchok maintained that the verse is not necessary for that (it teaches that where there is _kareis,_ there is only _kareis_ and no _malkos_ ) since it can be inferred from the case of five _niddos._The Chachomim argued that the cases cannot be compared.*Summary**Question: How does Rabbi Yitzchok's defend his argument?**Answer:* He does not. Instead he learns it from the second time the verse mentions *“his sister”* [unnecessarily].*Question: What do the Chachomim learn from “his sister”?**Answer:* The Torah discusses only a half-sister [from either the father or mother], this repetition teaches that even a full sister is punishable. Although we would know this by logic, *We do not punish based on logic,* rather we need the _passuk_ to state it explicitly (7.3).*Question: How does Rabbi Yitzchok learn this law* that a full sister is punished?*Answer:* From the extra _lav_ written about a sister.
