**********************GIRSA SECTION*********************
We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach and the marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section is devoted to any other important corrections that Acharonim have pointed out in the Gemara, Rashi and Tosfos.
[1] Gemara 10b [line 37]:
The words "va'Aleihem Amar David" ועליהם אמר דוד
should be "va'Aleihem Amar Kra" ועליהם אמר קרא (TOSFOS DH va'Aleihem)
[2] Gemara 10b [line 42]:
The words "Tani Raban Shimon ben Gamliel" תני רבן שמעון בן גמליאל
should be corrected as suggested by Shitah Mekubetzes #17
[3] Gemara 10b [line 45]:
"Hardavlim" הרדולים
This is the Girsa of Tosfos. Rashi's Girsa is "Hardavlas" הרדווליס
[4] Rashi 10b DH u'Me'arbev ד"ה ומערבב:
It appears that the words "keshe'Hayah Kol Zeh Mesayem" כשהיה קול זה מסיים
should be "keshe'Hayah Kol Zeh Mesaye'a" כשהיה קול זה מסייע

17)[line 44]אל תיקרי שנים אלא שנייםAL TIKREI SHENAYIM ELA SHENIYIM- do not read the verse as "two [vessels]," but rather as "secondary [vessels]." That is, the verse does not mean merely that there were two such instruments, but that each of the two was a secondary instrument, implying that each was the second of a pair.
18)[line 42]שילוחSHILO'ACH- the Shilo'ach spring (also known as Gichon) that is located to the south of the Temple Mount from which the water for the Nisuch ha'Mayim on Sukos was drawn.
19)[line 45]וכן היה רבן שמעון בן גמליאל אומר הרדוליםV'CHEN HAYAH RABAN SHIMON BEN GAMLIEL OMER HARDAVLIM- so, too, would Raban Shimon ben Gamliel say, "Hardavlim." It is not at all clear what the intention of the word "v'Chen" is here. It is possible that Raban Shimon ben Gamliel is citing another example of a counter-intuitive practice that was done in the Mikdash. Although the Hardavlim is normally the most esteemed and melodious of instruments, its hardy sound only lessened the beauty of the harmony produced by the other instruments in the Mikdash.
