6a)[line 28]çøùCHERESH- a deaf mute
b)[line 28]ùåèäSHOTEH - (lit. a fool) a person who is mad or deranged
(a)A person is classified as a Shoteh if he regularly, because of madness, destroys or loses that which is given to him, sleeps in a cemetery, goes out alone at night or tears his clothes (Chagigah 3b). According to the RAMBAM (Hilchos Edus 9:9), a person is a Shoteh if he regularly exhibits any form of irrational behavior.
(b)A Shoteh is exempt from performing Mitzvos, is not punished for his transgressions and is not liable for the damages that he causes. His purchases and sales are meaningless and are not binding.
c)[line 28]÷èïKATAN- a minor (a boy under the age of 13 and a girl under the age of 12)
7)[line 29]ñåîàSUMA- a blind person
8)[line 29]òáãEVED (EVED KENA'ANI)
(a)A Jew may acquire a Nochri slave or maidservant (Eved Kena'ani or Shifchah Kena'anis) by purchasing the slave from a Jewish or Nochri master and making a Kinyan on the slave with either Kesef (paying money), Shtar (receiving a contract), Chazakah (having the slave work for him) or Chalipin - the same Kinyanim that are used in the purchase of real-estate (see Background to Bava Basra 100:3). In addition, an Eved Kena'ani can be acquired through Kinyan Meshichah, like moveable objects (see Background to Avodah Zarah 71:9). A Nochri can also be acquired as a slave by being captured (Gitin 38a). These Halachos, and the Halachos mentioned below, apply whether the slave is from the Kena'ani nation or from another nation. Nevertheless, the generic term used by the Mishnah and Gemara to refer to Nochri slaves is Eved "Kena'ani," since the Torah openly describes Kena'an as a slave (Bereishis 9:27; see Rashi to Kidushin 22b DH Sadeh).
(b)A Nochri slave must undergo a process of involuntary conversion, in which he is circumcised (in the case of a male slave) and immersed in a Mikvah, after which he becomes obligated in Mitzvos. Regardless of gender, a Nochri slave is obligated to keep only those Mitzvos that a Jewish woman is obligated to keep. The slave is not permitted to marry an ordinary Jew. When the slave is freed, he automatically becomes a full-fledged Jew and is obligated to keep all of the Mitzvos, like a normal convert. However, before he is freed, his exemption from certain Mitzvos, as well as his prohibition to marry a Jewish woman, are direct consequences of the slavery. The Rishonim refer to this as a "Kinyan Isur," a "prohibitive" Kinyan (see Rishonim to Gitin 38a, Kidushin 16a).
(c)The slave of a Kohen is permitted to eat Terumah.
(d)For a discussion of additional Halachos of an Eved Kena'ani, see Background to Sanhedrin 58:14.

13a)[line 36]àúéà ñîéëä ñîéëä îæ÷ðé òãäASYA SEMICHAH SEMICHAH MI'ZIKNEI EDAH- it is learned from a Gezeirah Shavah (see Background to Zevachim 103:30) between the two words "v'Samach" and "v'Samchu" in the verses dealing with (a) Semichah for all Korbanos (Vayikra 1:4) and (b) Semichah of the elders of the community for the Par He'elem Davar Shel Tzibur (Vayikra 4:15). The blind are disqualified to be elders of the community (judges of the Sanhedrin) (Sanhedrin 17a, 34b).
b)[line 37]àúéà ñîéëä ñîéëä îòåìú øàééäASYA SEMICHAH SEMICHAH ME'OLAS RE'IYAH- it is learned from the verse that commands all Jewish men to offer an Olas Re'iyah on the three festivals (Shemos 23:17), that excludes the blind from the obligation ("Yir'eh Yera'eh" - Chagigah2a). The Olas Re'iyah requires Semichah, as do all private Korbanos.

This was the main service that accomplished the atonement for which HaSh-m commanded that the sacrifices be offered.

In the Introduction to the Sifra (the Halachic Midrash to Vayikra), Rebbi Yishmael lists thirteen methods that Chazal use for extracting the Halachah from the verses of the Torah. One of them is called Binyan Av. A Binyan Av (lit. "building through a father" - father in this sense means a Biblical source), is a rule of Biblical interpretation in which one subject is deemed a prototype in order to apply a Halachah stated in that subject to other comparable subjects.

39)[line 52]úðåôäTENUFAH
Waving portions of certain Korbanos and meal-offerings is called Tenufah; the Kohen, together with the owner of the Korban (when it is not a Korban Tzibur), waves them in all four directions and up and down (RASHI to Menachos 62a DH Molich. TOSFOS to Sukah 37b DH Kedei, ponders whether all Tenufos were done in this fashion, or whether some Tenufos only required lifting and lowering).
