***************GIRSA SECTION********************
We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach, Rav B. Rensburg 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 Gemara, Rashi or Tosfos.)

[1] Gemara 13a [line 8,9]:
The words "u'Faga Bo *Ze'ev* ... Paga Bo *Ari*"
should be "u'Faga Bo *Ari* ... Paga Bo *Dov*"
as can be found in Dikdukei Sofrim #100, Tosfos Avodah Zarah 2b and Tosfos
R"I he'Chasid in our Sugya. This sequence is based on the verse in Amos
5:19, "Ari ... Dov ... Nachash."

[2] Tosfos 13a DH b'Lashon ha'Kodesh:
The words "*Iy Nami* Mikra Bikurim ... *Af Al Pi Chen* b'Chol Lashon Ne'emrah"
should be "Mikra Bikurim ... *Iy Nami* b'Chol Lashon Ne'emrah"
(unlike the Maharsha's Girsa - NIMUKEI HA'GRIV)

[3] Gemara 13b [line 34]:
The words "ul'Arba Ruchos *ha'Shamayim*"
should be "ul'Arba Ruchos *ha'Olam*"
as the Girsa appears in Dikdukei Sofrim #90, the Rif and the Rosh. This
also appears to be the Girsa of Rashi DH d'Amlichtei. (In fact, we do not
often find reference to the four corners of the *heavens*, but rather the
four corners of the *earth*)

1) [line 6] MILCHEMES GOG U'MAGOG
Magog is first mentioned among the sons of Yefes, son of No'ach, in Bereishis 10:2. The prophet Yechezkel (chapters 38-39) describes a cataclysmic war lead by Gog of the land of Magog, where many nations combine forces to wage war against the land of Yisrael. The prophecy assures Gog that Hash-m Himself will ruin the war effort and will destroy all of his multitudes. It is traditionally assumed that this war will take place at the end of days, preceding the revelation of Hash-m as master of His world.
