יהודה ועוד לקרא

Hebrew

Etymology

From the Babylonian Talmud Kidushín chapter 1, where a verse from Scripture is brought as a proof, the practice in Judea is brought as another with the introductory word ועוד (“and furthermore”), and the Talmud challenges: יהודה ועוד לקרא (“Judea is an 'and furthermore' to Scripture?”).

Noun

יְהוּדָה וְעוֹד לִקְרָא • (y'hudá v'ód likrá) ? (no plural forms, no construct forms)

1. A proof that is superfluous given the preexisting proof.
