Reish Lakish ruled in Atrabulis that one may move a small candelabra.

R. Chelbo and R. Avahu - in front of R. Chelbo they do not remove [the candelabra], and in front of R. Avahu they remove it.

R. Yosi went to R. Tanchum bar Chiya. He wanted to remove [the candelabra] in front of him. R. Tanchum said to him "in front of us [you want to remove it? I am a Talmid of R. Chelbo, who forbids!]

R. Yosi Geliliya went to R. Yosi ben Chaninah. He wanted to remove it. [R. Yosi ben Chaninah] said to him "who permitted you?''

We find that Rav and Shmuel forbid on one side, and R. Yehoshua ben Levi and R. Yochanan permit on one side! (They are two against two, so there is no reason to permit. We do not count the other Amora'im who were Talmidim of these - SHA'AREI TORAS ERETZ YISRAEL.)

Question: A case occurred, and R. Lazar bar Chanina moved a base under a Ner on Shabbos (it was not burning at the time). Like whom was this?

If it is like R. Meir (who forbids a Ner designated to burn on Shabbos - CHASAM SOFER), even the base is forbidden. If it is like R. Shimon, even the Ner is permitted!

Answer: It is like R. Yehudah. It is R. Yehudah who said that a Ner is repulsive, but the base is not repulsive.
