5)
(a) What does Chizkiyah mean when he says that if Yayin Nesech and a large
jar of water fall into a wine-pit ...
- ... 'Higdilu be'Isur, Asur'?
- ... 'Higdilu be'Heter, Mutar'?
(b) What does Rebbi Yochanan say?
(c) We already discussed the Mishnah in Orlah, where a yeast of Chulin and a
yeast of Terumah, neither of which were able to affect a dough on its own,
but together, they did. Rebbi Eliezer goes after the one that fell in last.
What do the Chachamim say?
(d) How does Rebbi Yirmiyah try to equate the Machlokes between Chizkiyah
and Rebbi Yochanan with that of Rebbi Eliezer and the Rabbanan?
6)
(a) How does Abaye qualify Rebbi Eliezer's ruling? When will Rebbi Eliezer
forbid the dough even if the Chulin yeast fell in last?
(b) What problem does this then create with Chizkiyah's opinion?
(c) What is the basis of the Machlokes between Rebbi Eliezer and the
Rabbanan?
(d) The Machlokes between Chizkiyah and Rebbi Yochanan however, is whether
we apply the principle 'Ro'in' there where the Heter fell in first (as we
explained earlier). Why according to Chizkiyah, if the water and the Yayin
Nesech fall into the Kasher wine, do we not say 'Ro'in', even if the water
fell in first?
7)
(a) What did Rebbi Asi ask Rebbi Yochanan about someone who had a cup of
Chulin wine and a cup of Terumah wine, both of which he diluted before
pouring one into the other?
(b) What was Rebbi Yochanan's reply?
(c) How do we reconcile this with his opinion in his Machlokes with
Chizkiyah, where he holds 'Ro'in'?
(d) We support this answer with a statement of Rebbi Ami or Rebbi Asi, Amar
Rebbi Yochanan. What ruling did he issue regarding the case of two cups?
8)
(a) Rav and Shmuel rule that by all Isurin in the Torah, 'Miyn be'Miyno
be'Mashehu'. What do they hold by 'Miyn be'she'Eino Miyno'?
(b) According to them, what does the Tana of our Mishnah come to include
when he concludes 'Zeh ha'K'lal, Miyn be'Miyno be'Mashehu, Miyn be'she'Eino
Miyno, be'Nosen Ta'am'?
(c) In which point do Rebbi Yochanan and Resh Lakish argue?
(d) Which two Isurim are the sole exceptions?
9)
(a) What does 'Zeh ha'K'lal, Miyn be'Miyno be'Mashehu' come to include,
according to Rebbi Yochanan and Resh Lakish?
(b) Which opinion enjoys the support of a Beraisa?
(c) If the source for Rebbi Yochanan and Resh Lakish's stringent ruling
regarding Yayin Nesech is 'Chumra da'Avodas-Kochavim, what is the source for
their stringent ruling by Tevel?
10)
(a) From where do we learn that one grain is sufficient to fulfill the
Mitzvah of Terumah?
(b) How do we reconcile this with the Mishnah in Terumos which gives the
average Shiur as a fiftieth?
(c) What Shiur does the Mishnah in Chalah give for 'Miyn be'she'Eino Miyno'
by Tevel?
(d) What is the reason for this? What do we prove from there?
