(a)We just quoted Rebbi Yehudah and Rebbi Elazar, who learn from the Pasuk "Rak Chazak Levilti Achol ha'Dam ... " that the Isur of Eiver min ha'Chai takes effect even on a Beheimah Teme'ah. What problem do we have with the inclusion of Rebbi Yehudah in this statement?

(b)How do we solve it?

(c)What do we prove from the Beraisa, where Rebbi Elazar cites the Pasuk "Rak Chazak Levilti Achol ha'Dam" and the Rabbanan, "ve'Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar"?

1)

(a)We just quoted Rebbi Yehudah and Rebbi Elazar, who learn from the Pasuk "Rak Chazak Levilti Achol ha'Dam ... " that the Isur of Eiver min ha'Chai takes effect even on a Beheimah Teme'ah. The problem with the inclusion of Rebbi Yehudah in this statement is that - he already knows this from the fact that Eiver min ha'Chai is Chamur because it applied to the b'nei No'ach. So why does he now need to learn it from a Pasuk?

(b)We solve the problem - by establishing the D'rashah according to Rebbi Elazar exclusively.

(c)We prove from the Beraisa, where Rebbi Elazar cites the Pasuk "Rak Chazak Levilti Achol ha'Dam" and the Rabbanan, "ve'Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar" that - Rebbi Yochanan is right when he says that they both learned their respective D'rashos from the same Pasuk (though it is unclear why it does not also prove the previous statement [that it is only Rebbi Elazar who requires the Pasuk, and not Rebbi Yehudah]).

2)

(a)According to Rav Chisda ... or Rav Yosef, Rebbi Meir's statement in the Beraisa is based on the fact that the Pasuk places "Vezavachta mi'Bekorcha u'mi'Tzoncha" immediately before the Pasuk of Eiver min ha'Chai. What does Rebbi Meir say in the Beraisa?

(b)With whom is he then coming to argue?

(c)Rav Gidal Amar Rav establishes the above Machlokes Tana'im by a Yisrael. What will be the Din by a ben No'ach?

(d)This has the support of a Beraisa, which continues 've'Yisrael Eino Muzhar Ela al ha'Tehorim Bil'vad'. 'al ha'Tehorim' may be read as it stands (like the Rabbanan). How else might we read and interpret it?

2)

(a)According to Rav Chisda ... or Rav Yosef, Rebbi Meir's statement in the Beraisa - Eino Noheg Ela bi'Veheimah Tehorah Bil'vad, but not to Chayos or Ofos, is based on the fact that the Pasuk places "Ve'zavachta mi'Bekorcha u'mi'Tzoncha" immediately before the Pasuk of Eiver min ha'Chai.

(b)... in which case, he is coming to argue both with Rebbi Yehudah and Rebbi Elazar on the one hand, and with the Chachamim in the previous Beraisa on the other.

(c)Rav Gidal Amar Rav establishes the above Machlokes by a Yisrael. But as far as a ben No'ach is concerned - there is no difference between Eiver min ha'Chai of Teme'im and of Tehorim.

(d)This has the support of a Beraisa, which continues 've'Yisrael Eino Muzhar Ela al ha'Tehorim Bil'vad' - which is either read as it stands (like the Rabbanan), or - changed to Tehorah (like Rebbi Meir).

3)

(a)Rav Shizbi proves Rav Gidal Amar Rav's statement from a Mishnah in Taharos, which rules in connection with a Tamei bird 've'Ein Shechitasah Metaharasah'. Why can this not be referring to ...

1. ... a Yisrael eating from it?

2. ... the bird becoming Tahor (in the literal sense of the word)?

(b)Then what must the Tana be coming to teach us?

(c)Then why would the Nochri not be Chayav if it was a Tahor bird?

(d)How does Rav Mani bar Patish reconcile the current ruling with the Reisha of the Mishnah (which speaks about the same Tamei bird) 'Achal Eiver min ha'Chai mimenah, Eino Sofeg es ha'Arba'im'?

3)

(a)Rav Shizbi proves Rav Gidal Amar Rav's statement from a Mishah in Taharos, which rules in connection with a Tamei bird 've'Ein Shechitasah Metaharasah'. This cannot be referring to ...

1. ... a Yisrael eating from it - since that would be obvious (because how could a non-Kasher bird possible become permitted through Shechitah?).

2. ... the bird becoming literally Tahor - since a 'Tamei bird' is not Tamei to begin with.

(b)The Tana must therefore be coming to teach us that - Shechitah does not permit the Tamei bird to a Nochri, until it is completely dead (it is no longer convulsing).

(c)He would not be Chayav in the same case, if it was a Tahor bird (which a Nochri may eat immediately after it has been Shechted) - because of the principle that Whatever is permitted to a Yisrael is permitted to a Nochri.

(d)Rav Mani bar Patish reconciles the current ruling with the Reisha of the Mishnah (which speaks about the same Tamei bird) 'Achal Eiver min ha'Chai mimenah, Eino Sofeg es ha'Arba'im' - by establishing the Reisha with regard to a Yisrael (like the Rabbanan of Rebbi Yehudah and Rebbi Elazar).

4)

(a)Rav Yehudah Amar Rav rules that Eiver min ha'Chai requires a k'Zayis. Why might we have thought otherwise?

(b)What is then his reason for that?

4)

(a)Rav Yehudah Amar Rav rules that Eiver min ha'Chai requires a k'Zayis. We might have thought otherwise - because if Basar min ha'Chai requires a k'Zayis, Eiver min ha'Chai, which is a separate La'av, ought to be Chayav even for a Kol she'Hu (seeing as it is a Beryah) Note, that both La'avin will be discussed at the end of the Daf ...

(b)... and Rav Yehudah's reason is - because even the Pasuk of Eiver min ha'Chai mentions 'Achilah' (see top of Amud), and Achilah always implies a k'Zayis.

5)

(a)Rav Amram quotes another ruling from the above Mishnah in Taharos 'Achal Eiver min ha'Chai mimenah Eino Sofeg es ha'Arba'im'. How does this pose a Kashya on Rav Yehudah Amar Rav?

(b)Why can we not answer by establishing the Mishnah when he ate less that the Shi'ur?

(c)And we answer with a statement by Rav Nachman (elsewhere). What did Rav Nachman say that will explain why he is not Chayav Malkos for "Lo Yochlu ki Sheketz heim", even though he ate a k'Zayis?

5)

(a)Rav Amram quotes another ruling from the above Mishnah in Taharos 'Achal Eiver min ha'Chai mimenah Eino Sofeg es ha'Arba'im', posing a Kashya on Rav Yehudah Amar Rav - because if the sinner ate a k'Zayis, why he is he not Chayav for transgressing the La'av of "Lo Yochlu ki Sheketz heim"?

(b)We cannot answer by establishing the Mishnah where he ate less that the Shi'ur - because then he would not be Chayav even if it was the Gid of a Tahor bird, and the Tana is currently listing the distinctions between the two.

(c)And we answer with a statement by Rav Nachman (elsewhere) - who said 'be'Mashehu Basar, Gidin va'Atzamos' (meaning that the k'Zayis that he ate was made up of Basar, Gidin and bones), which is sufficient as regards the Shi'ur Gid ha'Nasheh, but not as regards that of Of Tamei (since Gidin and Atzamos are not edible). Note, that this is the Chidush of Eiver min ha'Chai (over Basar min ha'Chai to which we just referred)

102b----------------------------------------102b

6)

(a)We query Rav Yehudah Amar Rav from a Beraisa. What does the Tana say about someone who eats a Tahor bird that consists of a 'Kol she'Hu, alive?

(b)What Isur has he transgressed?

(c)Why does the Tana then rule that if he eats ...

1. ... it after its death - he is only Chayav if it consists of a k'Zayis?

2. ... a Tamei bird, either way, he is Chayav even if it consists of a Kol sh'Hu?

(d)Then why is Neveilah consisting of a Kol sh'Hu not considered a Beryah too?

6)

(a)We query Rav Yehudah Amar Rav from a Beraisa, where the Tana rules that someone who eats a Tahor bird that consists of a Kolshe'Hu, alive - is Chayav ...

(b)... because of Eiver min ha'Chai.

(c)The Tana rule that if he eats ...

1. ... it after its death - he is only Chayav if it comprises a k'Zayis - because (based on the fact that the Torah writes Achilah by Neveilah), Neveilah requires a k'Zayis.

2. ... a Tamei bird, either way, he is Chayav even if it consists of a Kol sh'Hu - because it is a Beryah, and a Beryah never requires a k'Zayis (as we learned in Makos).

(d)Neveilah consisting of a Kolsh'Hu however, is not considered a Beryah - because when the bird was created, it was not yet called a Neveilah.

7)

(a)How do we reconcile Rav Yehudah Amar Rav with the first ruling in this Beraisa, which sentences the eater to Malkos for a Kol sheHu of Eiver min ha'Chai?

(b)In another Beraisa, Rebbi exempts from Malkos, someone who eats a Tahor bird that consists of less than a k'Zayis. What does Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon say?

(c)On what 'Kal va'Chomer' does Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon base his ruling?

(d)What does the Beraisa finally say about a case where one strangled the bird and ate it?

(e)Why is that?

7)

(a)To reconcile Rav Yehudah Amar Rav with the first ruling in the Beraisa, which sentences the eater to Malkos for a Kolshehu of Eiver min ha'Chai - we establish the case where the Gidin and the bones make up the k'Zayis, as we explained earlier.

(b)In another Beraisa, Rebbi exempts from Malkos, someone who eats a Tahor bird that consists of less than a k'Zayis, whereas - Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon renders him Chayav ...

(c).... Kal va'Chomer from one limb (and there is no more clear-cut case of Eiver than the whole bird.

(d)The Tana concludes that - if one strangles the bird and eats it, everyone will agree that one requires a k'Zayis in order to be Chayav Malkos ...

(e)... seeing as Neveilah requires a k'Zayis, as we just explained.

8)

(a)How does Rebbi counter Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon's 'Kal va'Chomer'?

(b)What is the basis of the Machlokes Tana'im in the Beraisa?

(c)What will Rebbi hold in a case where someone eats a limb that is less than a k'Zayis, whilst the bird is still alive?

(d)How does Rav Nachman now reconcile Rav Yehudah Amar Rav with the Seifa?

8)

(a)Rebbi counters Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon's Kal va'Chomer - with the argument that a whole bird is not a limb ...

(b)... neither does it stand do be cut up into limbs (as long as it has not been Shechted); whereas according to Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon, it does, in which case he is anyway Chayav for each limb (and receives only one set of Malkos because he received only one warning).

(c)If someone eats a limb that is less than a k'Zayis, whilst the bird is still alive - even Rebbi will agree that he is Chayav.

(d)Rav Nachman now reconciles Rav Yehudah Amar Rav with the Seifa - by establishing the latter where he supplemented the Basar with Gidin and bones, to make up a k'Zayis.

9)

(a)In connection with the previous Beraisa, we we query the feasibility of an entire bird that comprises less than a k'Zayis Basar, possessing a limb that comprises a k'Zayis, albeit together with the Gidin and the bones. What does Rav Sh'ravya reply? What is a 'Kalnisa'?

(b)Bearing in mind that a Kalnisa is a Tamei bird, Rav Sh'ravya's answer creates a problem with the Seifa 'Chankah ve'Achlah, Divrei ha'Kol be'K'zayis', based on a ruling of Rav. What did Rav say that now poses a Kashya on Rav himself?

(c)So how do we amend Rav Sh'ravya's answer?

9)

(a)In connection with the previous Beraisa, we we query the feasibility of an entire bird that comprises less than a k'Zayis Basar, possessing a limb that comprises a k'Zayis, albeit together with the Gidin and the bones. Rav Sh'ravya replies - that indeed it is, in the case of a particularly skinny bird called a Kalnisa.

(b)Bearing in mind that a Kalnisa is a Tamei bird, this answer creates a problem with the Seifa 'Chankah ve'Achalah, Divrei ha'Kol bi'K'zayis' - which then contradicts another ruling of Rav, that the Shi'ur of a Tamei bird, alive or dead, is a Kolshehu.

(c)So we amend Rav Sh'ravya's answer to - a skinny Tahor bird that resembles a Kalnisa (which was well-known for its skinniness).

10)

(a)Under which circumstances does Rava declare that, assuming that he holds Machsheves Ochlin Sh'mah Machshavah, according to ...

1. ... Rebbi, a person who eats a Tamei bird of less than a k'Zayis, alive, will be Chayav?

2. ... Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon, someone who eats a Tamei bird of less than a k'Zayis, alive, will be Patur?

(b)How did Rava dismiss Abaye's query on both rulings, how it is possible for Reuven to be Chayav for eating something for which Shimon would be Patur (or vice-versa)?

10)

(a)Rava declares that, assuming that he holds Machsheves Ochlin Sh'mah Machshavah, according to ...

1. ... Rebbi, a person who eats a Tamei bird of less than a k'Zayis, alive, will be Chayav - in the event that he decides to eat it limb by limb.

2. ... Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon, someone who eats a Tamei bird of less than a k'Zayis, alive, will be Patur - in the event that he initially decided to eat it after it is dead, but goes on to eat it alive (in which case it is no longer considered Omedes le'Evarim [though it is unclear why his actions do not negate his intention]).

(b)Rava dismissed Abaye's query on both rulings (how it is possible for Reuven to be Chayav for eating something for which Shimon would be Patur [or vice-versa]) - in that indeed he is, since a person's Machshavah can determine the status of a particular article for him in particular, but not for anybody else.

11)

(a)Rebbi Yochanan learns Eiver min ha'Chai from the Pasuk in Re'ei "ve'Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar". Why does the Torah refer to a limb from a live animal as "Nefesh"?

(b)And what does he then learn from the Pasuk in Mishpatim "u'Basar ba'Sadeh T'reifah Lo Socheilu"?

11)

(a)Rebbi Yochanan learns Eiver min ha'Chai from the Pasuk in Re'ei "ve'Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar". The Torah refers to a limb from a live animal as "Nefesh" - because it is an intrinsic part of the animal which will not re-grow once it is removed.

(b)And from the Pasuk in Mishpatim "u'Basar ba'Sadeh T'reifah Lo Socheilu", he learns the Isur of Basar min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'T'reifah.

12)

(a)Resh Lakish learns Eiver min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Chai from "Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar". What does he learn from "u'Basar ba'Sadeh T'reifah Lo Socheilu"?

(b)If Resh Lakish interprets "u'Basar ba'Sadeh Tereifah Lo Socheilu" to mean that it is forbidden to eat Basar that came from a T'reifah, how does he interpret "Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar"?

(c)What are the ramifications of their Machlokes? What will each opinion hold in a case where someone eats in one sitting ...

1. ... Eiver min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Chai?

2. ... Basar min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Tereifah?

3. ... Eiver min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Tereifah?

12)

(a)Resh Lakish learns Eiver min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Chai from "Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar", whereas from "u'Basar ba'Sadeh Tereifah Lo Socheilu", he learns - Basar min ha'Tereifah.

(b)Resh Lakish interprets "u'Basar ba'Sadeh T'reifah Lo Socheilu" to mean that it is forbidden to eat Basar that comes from a T'reifah, and "Lo Sochal ha'Nefesh im ha'Basar" to mean that - one may eat neither an Eiver nor flesh from a live animal, as long as they are together.

(c)Consequently, someone who eats in one sitting ...

1. ... Eiver min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Chai - is Chayav two sets of Malkos according to Rebbi Yochanan, and one according to Resh Lakish.

2. ... Basar min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Tereifah - is Chayav one set of Malkos according to Rebbi Yochanan, and two according to Resh Lakish.

3. ... Eiver min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Tereifah - is Chayav two sets of Malkos according to both opinions.
