This is not appropriate / This is not fitting

This is not appropriate / This is not fitting

It is not proper. It is not suitable. Not fitting. Originally: it has no fixed or known measure.

("A tradition from our ancestors is in our hands: the place of the Ark is not of the measure" - Yoma 21a, and also: "It is not fitting to come and dispute the early authorities and the great legal decisors with mere theories that have no basis in law" - Responsa Tzitz Eliezer, part 9, siman 1, chapter 5 )

Definition (Hebrew)

אֵין זֶה הוֹלֵם. אֵין זֶה רָאוּי. לֹא מַתְאִים. בַּמָּקוֹר: אֵין לוֹ גֹּדֶל קָבוּעַ אוֹ יָדוּעַ.

("מסורת בְּיָדֵינוּ מֵאֲבוֹתֵינוּ מָקוֹם אָרוֹן אֵינוֹ מִן הַמִּדָּה"- יוֹמָא כא ע"א, וְכֵן:"אֵין זֶה מִן הַמִּדָּה לָבוֹא וְלַחֲלֹק עַל הָרִאשׁוֹנִים וגדולי הַפּוֹסְקִים בסברות בעלמא כָּאֵלֶּה שֶׁאֵין לָהֶם אחיזה בַּהֲלָכָה"- שׁוּ"ת צִיץ אֱלִיעֶזֶר חֵלֶק ט סִימָן א פֶּרֶק ה )
