*********************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 and Rashi.

[1] Gemara 37a [line 7]:

The words "Metamei k'Yemei Nidah Hu" îèîà ëéîé ðãä äåà

should be "Metamei b'Yemei Nidah Hu" îèîà áéîé ðãä äåà

[2] Gemara [line 33]:

"Achar Achar l'Chulan" àçø àçø ìëåìï

See Girsa Section to Daf 33:3

[3] Gemara 37b [line 45]:

The words "l'Apukei mid'Rebbi Chanina" ìàôå÷é îãøáé çðéðà

should be "l'Apukei mid'Rebbi Chananya" ìàôå÷é îãøáé çððéà; this is also the way it should appear in Rashi (Rashash)

2)[line 3]çæå ãôøçà àñà îäàé ôåøéà ìäàé ôåøéàCHAZU D'PARCHA ASA ME'HAI PURYA L'HAI PURYA- they saw that a myrtle branch was flying back and forth from one bier to the other

3)[line 9]ìàééLE'AYEI- in truth

4)[line 19]ì÷øáï àîøúéL'KORBAN AMARTI- this is Rebbi Eliezer's statement. He is saying it with reference to the third Re'iyah. ("V'Lo li'Stirah" is stated with regard to the fourth Re'iyah.)

5)[line 21]îä âøí ìå æåáå?MAH GARAM LO ZOVO?- what does his Zov cause? (That is, how many days of Tum'ah would Zov be able to cause?)

6)[line 23]îàé ùáòä?MAI SHIV'AH?- that is, why did the Beraisa mention "What did the Zov cause him." (It could have mentioned simply that Zov is Tamei without relating it to cause and effect)

7)[line 27]ð÷èéðïNAKTINAN- we have a tradition

8)[line 29]àéï ìéãä ñåúøú áæéáäEIN LEIDAH SOSERES B'ZIVAH- that is, the Yemei Tum'ah of Leidah (seven for a male and fourteen for a female), when she did not experience bleeding (as mentioned shortly), are not Soser the count of seven clean days of a Zavah

10)[line 15]åëé ãðéï àôùø îùàé àôùø?V'CHI DANIN EFSHAR MISHE'IY EFSHAR?

(a)There is a general argument among the Tana'im (Menachos 62a and elsewhere) as to whether the Halachah in one particular situation may be derived by comparison to another situation in which the Halachah is dictated solely by practical impossibility ("Iy Efshar").

(b)Rebbi Eliezer compares the Korbenos Pesach brought throughout the generations to the Korban Pesach brought in Egypt. It was impossible (Iy Efshar) to bring the Korban Pesach in Egypt from money that was designated as Ma'aser Sheni (since they were not yet commanded at the time to separate Ma'aser Sheni from their produce). From this Rebbi Eliezer proves that the Korbenos Pesach of the subsequent generations must also be brought from money that is Chulin and not from money that is Ma'aser Sheni (Efshar). Rebbi Akiva argues, claiming that we cannot derive the Halachah in a scenario that is Efshar from a scenario that is Iy Efshar.

(c)In our Sugya, the Tana of the Beraisa compares the Halachos of Yemei Nidah and Yemei Leidah, to prove that Yemei Leidah do not count towards the Shiv'ah Neki'yim of a Zavah. Just as Yemei Nidah, during which a woman will not become a Zavah, are not counted towards the Shiv'ah Neki'yim, so too, Yemei Leidah, during which a woman will not become a Zavah, are not counted towards the Shiv'ah Neki'yim. This is an example of Danin Efshar mishe'Iy Efshar. It is possible for a woman to give birth while she is counting the Shiv'ah Neki'yim for Zivah. However, it is impossible that her Yemei Nidah could occur during her count. The days in which it is possible to become a Nidah only start after the days of Zivah are over.
