This week, we will learn the concept of a vain oath and what a person would be liable for. The 4th chapter deals with an oath made by someone who may have information that can help a litigant in court. We will learn who can be made to swear and by whom, and if they lie, they are liable to bring a sacrifice.

Shaul concerns and fears are now overtaking him and he can no longer hold them in. He is taking more of a stance with his servants of “if you’re not with me, you’re against me” which motivates Doeg to tell Shaul where he last saw Dovid.

Masechet Shvuot begins with an unusual feature: it doesn’t open with a direct definition of “shevuot” (oaths), but instead with a statement that lists different legal categories that the tractate will cover, including  tumah  (impurity),  bi’at mikdash  (entering the Temple in a state of impurity),  yediot hatumah  (knowledge of impurity), and various types of oaths ( shevuot ).
