Excerpt from New Edition of the Babylonian Talmud, Vol. 12: Original Text, Edited, Corrected, Formulated, and Translated Into English; Section Jurisprudence (Damages), Tract Baba Metzia (Middle Gate, Part II.)
R. Huna happened to come to Sura of Euphrates. On that occasion Hanina of the same place questioned him: Why did the Scripture mention the redemption from Egypt in conjunc tion with the eating of reptiles? And he answered So said the Holy One, blessed be He: I who have distinguished in Egypt, etc., will punish one who mingles the inwards of unclean fishes with the inwards of clean ones and sells them to an Israel ite. And he rejoined: What I do not understand is, why is here mentioned who brought you up, which is not the case in the other place where the redemption from Egypt is mentioned?
Said Rabbins: To that was taught by the School of R. Ismael The Holy One, blessed be He, said: If the only reason why Israel Should be redeemed from Egypt would be that they should not defile themselves with the consummation of reptiles, it would be sufficient the expression, Who brought you up, is in the Hebrew Hamnalelr, which means also, a higher standing]. To the question, however, Is then the reward for not eating reptiles greater than that of the three things mentioned above (to which the expression, I brought you up, is not used)? He rejoined: The question here is not about reward, as the Scripture means they were brought up in such a manner that they felt disgust to defile themselves with reptiles.
