[Kemitzah is] "Melo Kumtzo'' - perhaps it should exude [from his fingers]! "B'Kumtzo'' [teaches that this is not so]. Perhaps "b'Kumtzo'' teaches that he should [take a minimal amount through curling] his fingertips! "Melo Kumtzo'' teaches that this is not so. How does he do [to fulfill both]? He covers his palm in the Machavas or Marcheshes [and bends three fingers to his palm] and wipes away with his finger [what sticks out] above (with his thumb) and below (with his pinky).

There (Kemitzah), you say "Melo Kumtzo b'Kumtzo.'' Here (Yom Kipur) it says "Melo Chafnav'' (one may not curl his fingertips and take a minimal double handful);

(R. Yakov bar Acha citing R. Simai citing R. Yehoshua ben Levi): Just like there, if the Kometz sticks out [from his fingers] it is Pasul, also here if the double handful sticks out, it is Pasul. (We explained like SHA'AREI TORAS ERETZ YISRAEL.)
