Bechoros 27

BECHOROS 27 - dedicated by Hagaon Rav Mordechai Rabin of London, now living in Yerushalayim.

*********************GIRSA SECTION*********************
We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach, the Tzon
Kodshim and the parenthetical marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section
is devoted to any *OTHER* changes that we feel ought to be made in the
Gemara and Rashi)

[1] Gemara 27a [line 6]:
The words "*d'Kedushas* ha'Guf"
should be "*Kedushas* ha'Guf"

[2] Rashi 27a DH Tovas Hana'ah:
"v'Im Hayah Kohen" is a new Dibur

[3] Rashi DH Aval Hanei Matanos *Bechor* ...:
The words should be "Aval Hanei Matanos *u'Vechor* ..."

[4] Rashi DH Kohen Katan:
see SHITAH MEKUBETZES #13
(the correction of the RASHASH,
removing the words "Lishna Acharina," does not appear to be correct)

[5] Gemara 27b [line 5]:
see SHITAH MEKUBETZES #1

13) [line 1] HAZA'AH - sprinkling on the third and seventh days (TUM'AS MES)
If a person (or utensil) became Tamei through touching a Mes, or an object that was Tamei with Tum'as Mes, or being in the same room as a Mes or something that is Metamei b'Ohel, he must wait seven days to become Tahor. On the third and seventh days he must have spring water mixed with the ashes of the Parah Adumah (Mei Chatas, see Background to Bechoros 25:11:d)) sprinkled on him. A person who is Tahor dips three Ezov branches that have been bound together into the mixture, and sprinkles them on the person who is Tamei. On the seventh day, he immerses in a Mikvah after the mixture is sprinkled on him in order to complete his Taharah. (Bamidbar 19:17-19)
