1)[line 1]áéåöà åðëðñB'YOTZEI V'NICHNAS- we are referring to a case where the Nazir went out to the cemetery, performed the seven-day purification process, and re-entered the cemetery (TOSFOS)

2)[line 22]áú÷ðúéä ÷à îééøéB'TAKANTEI KA MAIRI- the Beraisa is referring to the Nazir's remedy (when he can start his count of Nezirus) (MEFARESH), which was brought about by something that the Nazir did that was not a sin (since he became Tamei by accident) (TOSFOS)

b)[line 23]á÷ì÷åìéä ìà ÷à îééøéB'KILKULEI LO KA MAIRI- the Beraisa is not talking about (a) the Nazir's ruin (receiving lashes) (MEFARESH); (b) a case when the Nazir sinned (by becoming Tamei intentionally) (TOSFOS)

3a)[line 27]áòé ùäééä ìîì÷åúBA'I SHEHIYAH L'MALKUS- does he have to linger in the cemetery in order to receive lashes?

b)[line 27]áòé ùäééä ìîì÷åúBA'I SHEHIYAH L'MALKUS (TUM'AS MIKDASH V'KODASHAV)

(a)It is forbidden for a person to enter the Mikdash if he touched an Av ha'Tum'ah (Bamidbar 5:2). One who transgresses this prohibition b'Shogeg can become obligated to bring a Korban Oleh v'Yored. If he transgresses it b'Meizid, he is punished with lashes.

(b)If he becomes Tamei in the Mikdash, he must leave by the shortest route. If he takes a longer route, or if he bows down before leaving, or if he lingers the time that it takes to recite a particular verse from Divrei ha'Yamim II (7:3 - the verse describes how the Jews bowed down in the Mikdash) or half of it - see Shevuos 16b - he transgresses the prohibition of being Tamei in the Mikdash just like the person who enters the Mikdash while Tamei.

b)[line 21]éîé çìåèåYEMEI CHALUTO

(a)THE PROCESS BY WHICH A METZORA BECOMES TAMEI - When a person develops a mark that looks like Tzara'as, a Kohen must ascertain whether or not it is a Nega Tzara'as. If it is indeed a Nega Tzara'as, the Kohen tentatively pronounces him Tamei for one week, making him a Metzora Musgar (Hesger Rishon). The Kohen returns after a week to see what changes, if any, occurred to the mark. If there are no changes, the person remains a Metzora Musgar (Hesger Sheni) and the Kohen returns after the second week. If there are still no changes the Kohen pronounces the person to be Tahor. If the Kohen confirms the Tum'ah of the Metzora due to the appearance of Simanei Tum'ah in the mark, the Kohen pronounces him a Metzora Muchlat. A Metzora Muchlat remains Tamei until his Simanei Tum'ah go away.

(b)The names and colors of four types of marks that make a person a Metzora are 1. Baheres, which is the color of snow; 2. Se'es, which is the color of clean, white newborn lamb's wool; 3. Sapachas of Baheres, which is the color of the plaster used to whitewash the Beis ha'Mikdash; 4. Sapachas of Se'es, which is the color of the white membrane found on the inside of an egg.

(c)The Simanei Tum'ah for marks that appear on the skin (Nig'ei Basar) are:

1.the mark spreads (Pisyon); 2. at least two white hairs (Se'ar Lavan) grow inside the mark after the Nega Tzara'as appears; or 3. a patch of healthy skin (Michyah) appears in the middle of the Nega.
