Core Text of Chazal

Core Text — Yevamos 48b
בְּגֵר תּוֹשָׁב הַכָּתוּב מְדַבֵּר, אוֹ אֵינוֹ אֶלָּא בְּגֵר צֶדֶק? כְּשֶׁהוּא אוֹמֵר וְגֵרְךָ אֲשֶׁר בִּשְׁעָרֶיךָ — הֲרֵי גֵּר צֶדֶק אָמוּר.

English: The verse speaks of a resident stranger. Perhaps it means a righteous convert? Since another verse says, “and your stranger who is within your gates,” the righteous convert is already included there.

In context: See the cited source for the full section.
