the second scroll: the mesorah snapshot, pinned and read (bishe'arecha step 6)

Devarim 17:18 — the king writes his copy from before the priests, not from
memory. scripts/build_mesorah.py takes one open-licence version per work
per language from the Sefaria export (bucket sefaria-export, catalogue of
2026-10-02; Public Domain / CC0 / CC-BY / CC-BY-SA only, checked in every
file; no CC-BY-NC — the Bavli is Wikisource's) and lays it down beside
L1: mesorah/works/<slug>/{he,en}.json, index.json, integrity.sha256,
build_report.json. 128 works (Rashi, Onkelos, Ramban, Ibn Ezra, Sforno
on the Torah; all of Mishnah; 37 Bavli tractates; Bereshit and Shemot
Rabbah, Sifrei, Tanchuma), 256 files, 44.9 MiB, tree hash 7d5b3a6c…
computed as L1's (sorted relative path, then bytes; the two post-hash
files excluded). What is out, and why (licence), is in Terumah §E5.

Read, never fetched: korban_processor/mesorah.py finds citations as
written (Rashi on Devarim 6:5, Berakhot 2a, Mishnah Berakhot 1:1,
Bereshit Rabbah 1:1, Sifrei Devarim 32, Tanchuma Bereshit 1 …), resolves
each against the snapshot (complex works through their unnamed node,
Tanchuma by parashah), lists them as examination.mesorah_references, and
makes every passage found a given source for that examination — so a
claim about Rashi anchors in Rashi or does not. The Vav Pipeline couples
coupled(reference(R), mesorah(Work, [Address])) or not_in_mesorah; the
engine accepts mesorah/2 as a terminal and not_in_mesorah is Form 4.
VavPipeline.Mesorah pins the hash, re-reads the tree at startup and every
ten minutes, and /kodesh/health carries mesorah_hash. Mounted read-only at
/mnt/mesorah in the vav-pipeline and korban-processor images. L3
bedikot.mesorah (migration 20261013000002).

Also: the 1-in-12 Day6 serving failure of 2026-10-04 reproduced with seed
446116 — HaltMonitorTest left the system halted; it now resolves on exit
and the Day6 setup is defensive. Construction §3.11, Terumah §E5, Tamid
§1.1, bishearecha §IV, KOHEN, AGENTS. Doorpost 0638d4eb…. Elixir 604/0
(seeds 835592 and 446116), korban 294/1 skipped, Prolog bedikah 44/44,
L3 10/0.

On the 15th of the month the Book of Esther is read in cities. Additionally, they repair the roads between cities, the roads within cities, the <i> mikvaot </i> [pools for ritual immersion], take care of all public needs, mark graves and remove the <i> kilayim </i> [from the fields].","Rabbi Yehuda said: At first they used to uproot [<em>kilayim</em>] and would throw it away before them. When sinners began to multiply [i.e. when people did not remove the <em>kilayim</em>] they would uproot it and throw it on the roads. [Eventually,] they decreed that the entire field should be declared ownerless [and anyone can take food from these fields - because the owners did not remove their <i> kilayim </i> at all].","On the 15th [of Adar] tables would be set up [in order to exchange money] throughout the land. On the 25th they would set up in the Temple. When they moved to the Temple they began to mortgage [property and other valuables for coins]. Who did they take mortgages from? Levites, Israelites, converts and freed slaves. They did not take mortgages from women, slaves and children. Any child whose father has begun to pay the shekel for him, [the father] cannot stop paying the half-shekel on his behalf. They did not take mortgages from priests for the sake of peace. ","Rabbi Yehuda said: Ben Bukhrei testified in Yavneh saying that a priest that contributes the half-shekel is not sinning. Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai said to him: This is not true. In fact, any priest who does not give a half-shekel is sinning. Rather, the priests interpreted the verse for their own benefit, \"And every meal-offering of a priest shall be wholly made to smoke; it shall not be eaten\" (Leviticus 6:16): If the <i>omer</i> [barley measure] offering and the <i>lechem hapanim </i> [showbread, displayed in the Temple] offering are ours, how can they be eaten?","Despite the fact that it was taught that we do not accept mortgages from women, slaves and children - if they gave a half-shekel it was accepted. The half-shekel of non-Jew or the Cuthite is not accepted. We also do not accept from a non-Jew or a Cuthite the bird offering of a man who was a <i> zav </i> [had an unusual genital flow] or a woman who was a <i> zavah </i> [had an unusual genital flow], the bird offering of a woman who has given birth, sin offerings or guilt offerings, but we do accept from them vowed offerings. This is the rule: Any vowed or donated offering is accepted from them; any offering that is not vowed or donated is not accepted from them. Accordingly it was explained by Ezra who said, \"It is not for you and for us to build a house for our God.\" (Ezra 4:3)","The following people have to pay a surcharge when buying the half-shekel coin: Levites, Israelites, converts and freed slaves. However, priests, women, slaves and children do not have to pay the surcharge. One who pays the half-shekel on behalf of a priest, a woman, a slave or child is exempt [from paying the surcharge]. If he pays the half-shekel on his own behalf and on behalf of his fellow, he must only pay the surcharge once. Rabbi Meir said: He must pay it twice. One who gives a <i> sela </i> [which is worth two shekels] and receives one shekel in return must pay the surcharge twice.","One who pays the half-shekel on behalf of a poor person, or his neighbor, or a resident of his city, is exempt from the surcharge. However, if he loaned them [the half-shekel] he must pay it. Brothers and partners who must pay the surcharge are exempt from tithes on animals, and in cases where they are required to give tithes on animals, they are exempt from the surcharge. How much is the surcharge? Rabbi Meir said: 1 silver <i> meah </i> [1/12 of a shekel]. The Sages said: 1/2 of a silver <i> meah </i> [1/24 of a shekel]."],["One can exchange shekels for <em>darkonot</em> [coins of large denomination] in order [to lighten] the load of the journey. Just as there were shofar-shaped chests in the Temple, so too were there shofar-shaped chests in the provinces. If people of a city had sent their shekels and they were stolen or lost, if the <em>terumah</em> [portion for offerings] had already been appropriated, [the messengers] take an oath to the treasurers [that the money was stolen or lost]; if it hadn't [been appropriated yet], they take an oath to the people of the city, and the people of the city must pay [new] shekels in their stead. If they are found, or if the thieves returned them, then both [the new payment and the original payment] are part of the <em>shekalim</em>, but it does not count for them the following year.","One who gives his shekel to his fellow to donate on his behalf, and [his fellow] donates it fLine truncated
