8a) [line 15] ACHORAYIM, V'SOCH, U'VEIS HA'TZEVITAH, BI'TERUMAH - the
outside, inside, and the handle of a vessel are independent of each other
regarding Terumah; (if Tum'ah touches one, it alone becomes Tamei)
9) [line 16] MIDRAS
(a) A Zav who emits Zov two or three times, whether it is emitted in one day
or in two or three consecutive days, is an Av ha'Tum'ah.
(b) He can cause objects that are under him to become Avos ha'Tum'ah whether
he touches them or not. The objects become Tamei Midras (lit. an object that
is treaded upon), otherwise known as Mishkav or Moshav ha'Zav (or the
*Tachton*, of a Zav.) An object may become a Midras if it was made for lying,
sitting, or leaning upon.
(c) A cloth must be at least three Tefachim square in order to become a
Midras. A cloth that is smaller than this is Tahor due to its insignificance.
Earthenware objects (Klei Cheres) cannot become Midras.
(d) A person who touches or carries a Midras is Tamei and is Metamei the
clothes he is wearing and other utensils (except for earthenware utensils)
that he is touching. He and the items he touches get the status of Rishon
l'Tum'ah.
(e) Utensils or clothes that lie above the Zav also get the status of a
Rishon l'Tum'ah, whether he touches them or not. These are called the *Elyon*
of a Zav.
10) [line 19] MATIR U'MENAGEV U'MATBIL - [if one intends to immerse a knotted
garment or a wet garment,] he must untie it or dry it out, and afterwards he
may immerse it in a Mikvah
11) [line 22] METZAREF
When a source of Tum'ah touches an item of Kodshim that is in a utensil that
contains other items of Kodshim that are not touching each other, the utensil
causes the Tum'ah to spread to all of the items as if they were touching each
other. (RAMBAM Hilchos Avos ha'Tumah 12:7)

See Background to Chagigah 18:15
