***12th CYCLE DEDICATIONS***

ERUVIN 105 (18 Teves) - Two weeks of study material have been dedicated by Mrs. Estanne Abraham Fawer to honor the sixth Yahrzeit of her father, Reb Mordechai ben Eliezer Zvi (R. Morton Weiner) Z'L, who passed away 18 Teves 5760. May the merit of supporting and advancing Dafyomi study, which was so important to him, during the weeks of his Yahrzeit serve as an Iluy for his Neshamah.


*1*)
[line 1] U'SHENEIHEM MIKRA ECHAD DARSHU - Rebbi Yochanan means to say that this argument has nothing to do with whether or not one may bring a Sheretz into the Mikdash. Everyone is of the opinion that to do so is forbidden. Rather, their argument hinges on another point entirely. (RASHI)
2)
[line 2] "VA'YAVO'U HA'KOHANIM ..." - "And the Kohanim went into the inner part of the house of HaSh-m to cleanse it, and they brought all of the impurity which they found in the temple of HaSh-m out into the courtyard of the house of HaSh-m. And the Leviyim took it, to carry it outside into the wadi of Kidron." (Divrei ha'Yamim II 29:16)
3)
[line 5] MID'ISHTANI - from that which [the impure objects] changed [hands]
4)
[line 7] MAFKI - [should] bring out
*5*)
[line 13] MESAYEI'A KAHANEI - that is, he argues with the previous Beraisa which suggests that Yisraelim Tehorim are preferred to work in the Mikdash over Kohanim Temei'im.
6)
[line 6] LA'ASOS RIKU'EI PACHIM - to install beaten plates of gold (which covered the inner walls of the Kodesh ha'Kadashim -- i.e. for maintenance, as opposed to performing the Avodah)
7)
[line 20] D'HA ISHTERI B'AVODAS TZIBOR - a Korban Tzibor such as the Korban Tamid is brought even if the only available Kohanim are Tamei, as the verse states "b'Mo'ado" -- "in its proper time" (Bamidbar 28:2).
8a)
[line 23] SHE'EIN HA'MASHOCHOS MEMATZ'IN ES HA'MIDOS - for those who measure the Techum do not measure the Techum exactly; rather, they mark off the Techum at a point which is some fifteen or so Amos before the full distance.
  b)
[line 31] MIPNEI TO'EI HA'MIDAH - 1) to compensate for the error made by those who measured the Techum. They may not have used the entire length of the rope of fifty Amos when they used it to measure (due to the ends of the rope which remained in their hands); 2) in order to take into account those who carelessly wander in and out of the Techum when walking close to its edge.
*9*)
[line 26] ONVAH - a Levi must reattach his harp-string through tying it in a bow. The Gemara explains that Rebbi Shimon is stating two distinct opinions in our Mishnah: (a) It is permissible for one who finds himself just outside of the Techum to reenter. This is due to the fact that he is in actuality already within the Techum, and not because I allow one to transgress an Isur d'Oraisa. Therefore, (b) A Levi may not tie a proper knot in his harp-string on Shabbos, for that would be transgressing a Melachah d'Oraisa, and not just a Shvus.
