The Not a the Benediction

Those who willingly take on the Nazarite vow can't shave, shave their head or cut their hair. At the end of that period, at least for those who have taken a temporary vow, we're not talking of course about the life long Nazarites like Samson and Samuel and John the Baptist,. Those who take this temporary vow, they cut their hair at the end of it. And one of the kind of the strange thing that happens is that the hair, the dedicated hair is placed on the fire on the altar, along with the sacrifice of the peace offerings.
