קְפֵידָא, (קְפַד) minding, caring for, an intimation that you care for a thing to be exactly as you want it, a legal objection. Keth. 72ᵇ מידי … הוי קְפֵידֵיה ק׳ if the vow concerns a thing which people (husbands) generally mind (e.g. a wife’s abstinence from meat and wine or from ornamenting her body), his objection to it is valid (and if he betrothed her with the condition that she had no vows to bind her, he has a right to dismiss her without her jointure), but &c. B. Bath. 165ᵃ האשה שאמרה … מר סבר ק׳ ומר וכ׳ if a woman said, receive a letter of divorce for me at such and such a place, and they received it at a different place …, one is of the opinion, it was an intimation that she was particular about the place (and the act is invalid); the other says, it was merely an intimation of the place where the messenger was likely to find her husband. Ib. . באתרא דנהיגי פשוט … ועבד ליה מקושר ק׳ where the usage is to make a plain document, and he said, make it plain, and the writer made a rolled up document, the objection is valid; Kidd. 49ᵃ; a. fr.—Sot. 26ᵇ, v. next w.—Pl. קְפֵירִין. Midr. Sam. ch. XXVIII (expl. עיניו, Job XXXVI, 7) עייניהון קְפֵידֵיהוֹן what they have in sight, what they care for (v., however, פֹּורָא).
