(a)After a crop is harvested and brought to the owner's house or yard, the owner must separate Terumah from the crop, which he gives to a Kohen. Kohanim and members of their households are allowed to eat Terumah, as long as they are Tehorim.
(b)A Kohen who is Tamei who eats Terumah that is Tahor is liable to Misah b'Yedei Shamayim, as is learned from the verse in Vayikra 22:9.
5)[line 13]àîúåAMASO- his male organ
6a)[line 25]ðöåöåúNITZOTZOS- (lit. sparks) droplets of urine
b)[line 26]ëøåú ùôëäKERUS SHAFCHAH- a man who is sterile due to a mutilated male organ [and who therefore dribbles while urinating]
7)[line 31]òôø úéçåçAFAR TICHO'ACH- loose, fine dirt
8)[line 41]"åéøò áòéðé ä' àùø òùä, åéîú âí àåúåõ""VA'YERA B'EINEI HASH-M ASHER ASAH, VA'YAMES GAM OSO."- "And what he did was wicked in the eyes of HaSh-m, and He killed even him." (Bereishis 38:10) - The previous verse states that when Onan had relations with Tamar, he spilled his seed on the ground (Bereishis Raba 85:5 to Bereishis 38:9).
9)[line 43]"äðçîéí áàìéí úçú ëì òõ øòðï; ùåçèé äéìãéí áðçìéí úçú ñòéôé äñìòéí?""HA'NECHAMIM BA'ELIM TACHAS KOL ETZ RA'ANAN; SHOCHATEI HA'YELADIM BA'NECHALIM TACHAS SE'IFEI HA'SELA'IM?"- "Inflaming yourselves among the terebinths, under every green tree; slaying the children in the valleys under the clefts of the rocks?" (Yeshayah 57:5) - Our Gemara uses the Derash interpretation, which reads the word "Shochatei" as "Sochatei"; therefore, the term "Sochatei ha'Yeladim" means squeezing out semen.
10)[line 46]"... òì ääøéí äøîéí åòì äâáòåú, åúçú ëì òõ øòðï.""… AL HE'HARIM HA'RAMIM V'AL HA'GEVA'OS, V'SACHAS KOL ETZ RA'ANAN."- "[You shall completely destroy all of the places, where the nations which you shall possess served their gods,] upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every leafy tree." (Devarim 12:2)
11)[line 47]ààéâøàA'IGRA- on the roof

16)[line 52]àéï ìäï ôðàé ìðñêEIN LAHEN PENAI L'NASECH - they do not have time to make the wine Yayin Nesech (YAYIN NESECH)
(a)Wine that was poured as an idolatrous libation is Asur b'Hana'ah. This is derived from the verse, "Asher Chelev Zevacheimo Yochelu, Yishtu Yein Nesicham" - "Those who ate the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink-offerings" (Devarim 32:38), which compares the wine of libations to an animal sacrificed for idolatrous purposes.
(b)The Chachamim prohibited the wine of a Nochri that was not poured as a libation ("Stam Yeinam") out of fear that drinking wine together would lead to intermarriage. In order to avoid confusion between Yayin Nesech and Stam Yeinam, the Chachamim instituted that Stam Yeinam is also Asur b'Hana'ah (one of the "Eighteen Decrees" — Shabbos 17b). Although this is only an Isur mid'Rabanan, it is a very severe prohibition (see Chochmas Adam 75:1).
17)[line 52]áòéúéBE'ISI- they are afraid
18)[line 55]àéîúà ãîøéä òìéäEIMSA D'MAREI ALEI- the fear of Heaven (lit. his Master) is upon him

25)[line 16]ñôçúSAPACHAS- a mark of Tzara'as (see Background to Kerisus 8:16)
26)[line 17]îùëáæëåøM ISHKAV ZACHUR
It is forbidden for a man to have relations with another man as stated in Vayikra 18:22. If he did the act after receiving a proper warning not to do it, and two witnesses saw him do it, the punishment for this sin is Sekilah (stoning).
27)[line 18]áðé îáåì ðéðäåBNEI MABUL NINHU- they deserve to be punished with a flood (lit. they bring a flood to the world)
28)[line 19]ðñéáéNESIVI- they marry

Guf is the chamber in which the souls of all future Jews are kept; alt., Guf refers to the Pargod (Heavenly Curtain) that divides between the Shechinah and the angels (RASHI to Yevamos 63b; see also Insights there)
30)[line 21]"[ëé ìà ìòåìí àøéá åìà ìðöç à÷öåó,] ëé øåç îìôðé éòèåó, åðùîåú àðé òùéúé""[KI LO L'OLAM ARIV, V'LO LA'NETZACH EKTZOF,] KI RU'ACH MI'LEFANAI YA'ATOF, U'NESHAMOS ANI ASISI."- "[For I will not contend forever, nor will I always be angry;] when the spirit [of man finally] becomes subservient before Me and the souls whom I have made." (Yeshayah 57:16) - The Gemara interprets this phrase to mean, "for the spirit that is before Me and the souls that I have made (that have not as yet been born) are holding back [the redemption.]"

34)[line 28]ìáàø ùçúL'BE'ER SHACHAS- to the well of destruction; Gehinom
35a)[line 34]çøùúCHERESHES- a woman who is a deaf mute
b)[line 35]ùåèäSHOTAH - (lit. a fool) a woman who is mad or deranged (SHOTEH)
(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)It is not possible to depend on a woman who is a Shotah to know exactly when she experiences bleeding.
