(a)In another statement, Rebbi Yochanan sentences someone who eats Eiver min ha'Chai from a T'reifah to two sets of Malkos. What does Resh Lakish say?

(b)What Kashya does this pose on Resh Lakish's previous ruling?

(c)Rav Yosef draws a distinction between two animals and one animal. What does that mean?

(d)To explain the Machlokes, Abaye establishes the case by a baby that becomes a T'reifah just as the majority leaves the mother's womb. How does he then go on to explain the Machlokes?

1)

(a)In another statement, Rebbi Yochanan sentences someone who eats Eiver min ha'Chai from a T'reifah, to two sets of Malkos. Resh Lakish sentences him to only one ...

(b)... contradicting his previous ruling, where he (as well as Rebbi Yochanan) learns Eiver min ha'Chai and Basar min ha'Tereifah from two different Pesukim.

(c)Rav Yosef draws a distinction between two animals - where he is indeed Chayav two sets of Malkos, and one - where he receives only one (as we will now explain).

(d)To explain the Machlokes, Abaye establishes the case by a baby that becomes a T'reifah just as the majority leaves its mother's womb. Consequently - according to Rebbi Yochanan, who holds Beheimah be'Chayehah le'Evarim Omedes, the Isur T'reifah and the Isur Eiver min ha'Chai take effect simultaneously; whereas according to Resh Lakish - who holds Beheimah be'Chayehah La'av le'Evarim Omedes, the Isur Eiver min ha'Chai will not take effect on that of T'reifah.

2)

(a)Alternatively, both opinions hold Beheimah be'Chayehah La'av le'Evarim Omedes. In that case, how will we explain Rebbi Yochanan? What is his reason?

(b)Or they might both hold Beheimah be'Chayehah le'Evarim Omedes. What is then the basis of their Machlokes? When did the animal become a T'reifah?

(c)Rava establishes the case where someone cuts off an Eiver, rendering the animal a T'reifah at the same time. What might the case then be?

(d)Assuming that both opinions hold Ein Isur Chal al Isur, what is then the basis of their Machlokes? What does ...

1. ... Rebbi Yochanan say?

2. ... Resh Lakish say?

2)

(a)Alternatively, both opinions hold Beheimah be'Chayehah La'av le'Evarim Omedes, in which case, Rebbi Yochanan will hold - that Eiver min ha'Chai takes effect on a T'reifah, because it already applied to the B'nei No'ach (like the S'vara of Rebbi Yehudah, in the previous Mishnah).

(b)Or they both hold Beheimah be'Chayehah le'Evarim Omedes - only the animal became a T'reifah afterwards. Rebbi Yochanan now holds Isur (T'reifah) Chal al Isur (Eiver min ha'Chai), whereas Resh Lakish holds Ein Isur Chal al Isur.

(c)Rava establishes the case where someone cuts off a limb, rendering the animal a T'reifah at the same time - if for example, he cuts off the legs from above the knee.

(d)Assuming that both opinions hold Ein Isur Chal al Isur ...

1. ... Rebbi Yochanan holds - Beheimah be'Chayehah La'av le'Evarim Omedes, in which case the La'av of Eiver min ha'Chai and that of T'reifah take effect simultaneously (assuming that we hold of Isur bas Achas). Whereas ...

2. ... Resh Lakish holds Beheimah be'Chayehah le'Evarim Omedes - in which case the Isur of Eiver min ha'Chai came first, and that of T'reifah cannot take effect.

3)

(a)What objection did Rebbi Ami raise, when Rebbi Chiya bar Aba Amar Rebbi Yochanan sentenced whoever eats the Cheilev of a limb from a T'reifah animal to two sets of Malkos?

(b)What did Rebbi Avahu Amar Rebbi Yochanan say?

(c)Assuming that the animal became a T'reifah during birth just as the majority emerged, what is the basis of the Machlokes?

(d)And what will be the basis of their Machlokes assuming that both opinions hold Beheimah be'Chayehah La'av le'Evarim Omedes?

3)

(a)When Rebbi Chiya bar Aba Amar Rebbi Yochanan sentenced whoever eats the Cheilev of a limb from a T'reifah animal to two sets of Malkos, Rebbi Ami asked him - why he did not sentence him to three, which is what he maintained.

(b)Rebbi Avahu Amar Rebbi Yochanan - ruled that he is indeed Chayav three.

(c)Assuming that the animal became a T'reifah during birth as the majority emerged - they will then argue over whether Beheimah be'Chayehah le'Evarim Omedes (Rebbi Ami), and all three La'avin take effect simultaneously, or not (Rebbi Chiya bar Aba), in which case Eiver min ha'Chai will not take effect (as we explained earlier).

(d)Assuming, on the other hand, that both opinions hold Beheimah be'Chayehah La'av le'Evarim Omedes - they will argue over whether Isur Chal al Isur (Rebbi Ami) or nor (Rebbi Chiya bar Aba).

4)

(a)Finally, we suggest that both opinions hold Beheimah be'Chayehah le'Evarim Omedes. Then what is the problem?

(b)What do we learn from the Pasuk in Vayikra (in connection with the Cheilev of Neveilah and T'reifah) "Ve'achol Lo Sochluhu"?

(c)Then what is the problem? If Neveilah and T'reifah are Chal on Cheilev, why might they not be Chal on Eiver min ha'Chai?

(d)So what is then the Machlokes?

4)

(a)Finally, we suggest that both opinions hold Beheimah be'Chayehah le'Evarim Omedes, and the problem begins with the fact that - it became a T'reifah only later, and the question is whether the Isur of T'reifah is Chal on that of Eiver min ha'Chai, as well as on Cheilev, or not.

(b)We learn from the Pasuk in Vayikra (in connection with the Cheilev of Neveilah and T'reifah) "Ve'achol Lo Sochluhu" that - Neveilah and T'reifah are Chal on Cheilev (which precedes them).

(c)The problem is - whether they are also Chal on Eiver min ha'Chai, which does not have a Heter like Cheilev (Hutar mi'Kelalo by a Chayah) does.

(d)Rebbi Ami now holds that just as Neveilah and T'reifah are Chal on Cheilev, so too are they Chal on Eiver min ha'Chai; whereas Rebbi Chiya bar Aba confines the above D'rashah to Cheilev, which is Hutar mi'Kelalu, as we just explained, but does not apply to Eiver min ha'Chai, on which Neveilah and T'reifah do not take effect.

(a)When Rav Dimi arrived from Eretz Yisrael, he cited Resh Lakish, who asked Rebbi Yochanan whether someone is Chayav if he divides a k'Zayis of Eiver min ha'Chai into two, before placing them one by one into his mouth and eating them one at a time. What would the Din be if he did the same thing with a k'Zayis of Cheilev, for example?

(b)Then why might Eiver min ha'Chai be different?

(c)What did Rebbi Yochanan reply?

(d)And what did he reply when Resh Lakish asked him whether he will also be Patur if he divides it into two in his mouth and swallows the two halves one after the other?

5)

(a)When Rav Dimi arrived from Eretz Yisrael, he cited Resh Lakish, who asked Rebbi Yochanan whether someone is Chayav if he divides a k'Zayis of Eiver min ha'Chai into two, before placing them one by one into his mouth and eating them one at a time. If he did the same thing with a 'k'Zayis of Cheilev for example - he would be Chayav, because whatever one eats within the Shi'ur of K'dei Achilas P'ras (the time it takes to eat three eggs) combines to form a k'Zayis.

(b)Eiver min ha'Chai might be different - because, bearing in mind that by other Isurim one is not Chayav for eating Gidin and bones, it is a Chidush. Consequently, one must eat it in the way that one normally eats it in order to be Chayav, and people do not tend to divide a k'Zayis of meat in this way and eat them separately (see Tosfos DH 'Chalko mi'ba'Chutz').

(c)Rebbi Yochanan replied that - he is indeed Patur.

(d)And when Resh Lakish asked him whether he will also be Patur if he divides it into two in his mouth and swallows the two halves one after the other - he replied that in such a case he will be Chayav.

6)

(a)When Ravin arrived from Eretz Yisrael, he agreed with Rav Dimi's version of the first case. How did he cite the second one?

(b)What is the basis of the Machlokes, according to Ravin?

(c)What do we mean when we ask how, according to Resh Lakish, it is possible to be Chayav?

(d)Rav Kahana answers 'bi'Gerumisa Ze'erta'. What is G'rumisa Ze'erta?

6)

(a)When Ravin arrived from Eretz Yisrael he agreed with Rav Dimi's version of the first case. The second one however - was not presented as a She'eilah, but as a Machlokes; Rebbi Yochanan ruled Chayav, and Resh Lakish, Patur ...

(b)... Rebbi Yochanan ruled Chayav - because the Hana'ah of the throat (Hana'as Garon) determines the Chiyuv; whereas Resh Lakish ruled Patur - because it is the Hana'ah of the stomach (Hana'as Me'av) that determines the Isur.

(c)When we ask how, according to Resh Lakish, it is possible to be Chayav, we mean that - it is impossible (see Tosfos ibid.) to chew a k'Zayis in the mouth and then swallow it in one go.

(d)Rav Kahana answers bi'Gerumisa Ze'erta - a small bone attached to the thigh-bone, which makes up a k'Zayis together with the bit of meat and Gid which are attached to it, and which one normally swallows whole.

7)

(a)Rebbi Elazar disagrees with Rebbi Yochanan and Resh Lakish. What does he say in the first case, where someone divides the k'Zayis Gid into two and eats them separately?

(b)What reason does he give for that?

7)

(a)Rebbi Elazar disagrees with Rebbi Yochanan and Resh Lakish. He maintains that even someone who divides the k'Zayis Gid into two and eats them separately - is Chayav ...

(b)... because Mechusar K'reivah La'av ki'Mechusar Ma'aseh Dami (the location of the parts of the k'Zayis is not crucial for the Chiyuv. What is important, is that one eats it within the Shi'ur of K'dei Achilas P'ras.

8)

(a)According to Resh Lakish, the k'Zayis for which one is Chayav does not include whatever remains stuck between the teeth. What does Rebbi Yochanan say?

(b)How does Rav Papa qualify this? To which teeth are the disputants referring?

(c)Why does Rebbi Yochanan agree in the case of meat that is stuck between the front teeth?

(d)What is then Resh Lakish's reason?

8)

(a)According to Resh Lakish, the k'Zayis for which one is Chayav does not include whatever remains stuck between the teeth. Rebbi Yochanan says - that it does.

(b)Rav Papa qualifies this - by confining the Machlokes to the back upper teeth (that are close to the palate), but if meat is stuck to the front teeth, Rebbi Yochanan concedes that it is not included in the Shi'ur k'Zayis ...

(c)... because the throat derives no benefit from it.

(d)Resh Lakish does not count the meat that is stuck between the back upper teeth either, since the stomach derives no benefit from it (and it is Hana'as Me'av that is crucial according to him, as we just learned).

9)

(a)What does Rebbi Asi Amar Rebbi Yochanan say about someone who eats half a k'Zayis of Isur and then vomits it before eating another half k'Zayis?

(b)But did we not cite Rebbi Yochanan earlier as saying that someone who eats two half-k'Zeisim separately is Patur?

(c)What would Rebbi Asi have held had Rebbi Yochanan required Hana'as Me'av (and not Hana'as G'rono)?

9)

(a)Rebbi Asi Amar Rebbi Yochanan rules that someone who eats half a k'Zayis of Isur and then vomits it before eating another half k'Zayis - is Chayav, because his throat after all, did benefit from a k'Zayis.

(b)Rebbi Asi disagrees with Rav Dimi and Ravin who cites Rebbi Yochanan earlier as saying that someone who eats two half-k'Zeisim separately, is Patur.

(c)Had Rebbi Yochanan required Hana'as Me'av (and not Hana'as G'rono), Rebbi Asi would have ruled that - he is Patur, since the stomach only derives benefit if it contains a full k'Zayis at the same time.

10)

(a)Rebbi Elazar asked Rebbi Asi whether a person will be Chayav for eating half a k'Zayis of Isur, vomiting it and eating it again. Why do we initially think that he might be Patur?

(b)Then what do we mean when we ask ve'Tiba'i leih k'Zayis?

(c)So how do we reinterpret the reasoning behind the She'eilah? Why might one not be Chayav in the case of half a k'Zayis?

10)

(a)Rebbi Elazar asked Rebbi Asi whether a person will be Chayav for eating half a k'Zayis of Isur, vomiting it and eating it again. Initially, we think that he might be Patur - because, having been already digested the half k'Zayis is no longer considered edible.

(b)And when we ask ve'Tiba'i leih k'Zayis, we mean - that he could just as well have asked whether, if someone eats a full k'Zayis, vomits it and eats it again, he is Chayav two sets of Malkos or not.

(c)So we reinterpret the reasoning behind the She'eilah - attributing the possibility of his being Patur to the fact that we perhaps go after Hana'as Me'av (and not Hana'as G'rono).

11)

(a)What do we mean when we ask why we cannot resolve Rebbi Elazar's She'eilah from Rebbi Asi?

(b)What do we answer?

(c)What would have been the advantage in presenting the case where he ate the same full k'Zayis that he vomited, as Rebbi Elazar points out?

(d)What did Rebbi Elazar declare when Rebbi Asi remained silent? Why did he refer to him as Mofes ha'Dor?

11)

(a)When we ask why we cannot resolve Rebbi Elazar's She'eilah from Rebbi Asi, we mean that - from the fact that he refers to a case of a second half k'Zayis (rather than the same one), it is clear that, according to him, Rebbi Yochanan requires Hana'as G'rono (and not Hana'as Me'av, as we already explained).

(b)And we answer that - Rebbi Asi, in fact, made a mistake by citing a case of two half k'Zeisim, when in reality, Rebbi Yochanan said his Din by the same k'Zayis (as we explained in the Kashya).

(c)The advantage in presenting the case where he ate the same full k'Zayis that he vomited, as Rebbi Elazar points out is that - besides teaching us the Chidush of Hana'as G'rono, it would also teach us that food that one vomits immediately after eating it is not considered digested.

(d)When Rebbi Asi remained silent, Rebbi Elazar, referring to him as Mofes ha'Dor (meaning Gadol ha'Dor) -commented how many a time he (Rebbi Asi) himself had cited the case with regard to a complete k'Zayis, before Rebbi Yochanan, who commented 'Harei Neheneh G'rono bi'k'Zayis' (His throat benefited from a k'Zayis).
