A neder to not get hana'ah from a piece of food?
Switching to the subject line, this is probably a softball question, but if
a neder relates to a cheftza, and a shevua applies to an action, why do
people say "bli neder" so often in the context of actions?
And while I'm at it: a few days ago, on the daf, the gemara (around
Shevuos 29?) spoke about Moshe (in Devarim) getting am yisroel to swear
they will follow the mitzvos. The discussion revolved around Moshe's
specific lashon, but I found it curious that I didn't see a mention of the
issue of "isn't this a shevuas shav" (particularly because we had just
finished discussing shavuas shav). Thoughts?
