1)
(a) How do we finally extrapolate that the father of a Na'arah receives the
money of Kidushin from the Pasuk with which we began "ve'Yatz'ah Chinam Ein
Kasef"?
(b) On what grounds do we query this comparison (contrast)? What appears to
make the two cases incomparable?
(c) In what way does a man's daughter leave his father's jurisdiction, after
all?
2)
(a) What do we learn from ...
- ... "ve'Yatz'ah Chinam"?
- ... "Ein Kasef"?
(b) So how can we learn from the same Pasuk 'Ein Kasef le'Adon Zeh, Aval
Yesh Kesef le'Adon Acher'?
(c) What precedent do we have to Darshen the word "Ein" in this way?
3)
(a) What does the Tana in the Beraisa learn from "ve'Zera *Ein* Lah"?
(b) On what grounds do we retract from the original D'rashah, to learn
grandchildren from there?
(c) From where does the Tana know to Darshen the 'Yud' in "Ein" in this way?
(d) We now have two Pesukim regarding a father, one to teach us that he
receives his daughter's Kidushin money, the other, that he receives the
produce of her hands. Why can we not learn ...
- ... the Din regarding the produce of her hands from that of her Kidushin money?
- ... the Din regarding her Kidushin money from that of the produce of her hands?
4)
(a) Why do we need two Pesukim to teach us that a maidservant goes free when
she becomes a Na'arah and when she becomes a Bogeres? Why will one Pasuk not
suffice to teach us that she goes free when is a Na'arah?
(b) Rabah compares this to a "Toshav Kohen" and a "Sachir (Kohen)", neither
of whom may eat Terumah. What is ...
- ... a "Toshav Kohen"?
- ... a "Sachir Kohen"?
(c) Why does the Torah find it necessary to teach us both? If a Toshav
cannot eat Terumah, 'Kal va'Chomer' a Sachir (who is more temporary than a
Toshav)?
(d) How do we justify the Torah doing this? Why does it not write just one
of them and refer to him specifically as 'Kanuy Kinyan Olam'?
5)
(a) On what grounds do we reject Rabah's comparison of Na'arah and Bogeres
to Kanuy Kinyan Olam and Kanuy Kinyan Shanim?
(b) Based on this Pircha, how does Rabah finally explain the Torah's need to
teach us that a Bogeres leaves her master's jurisdiction, having already
taught us that a Na'arah does do?
(c) What then is the Chidush?
(d) When exactly does a Bogeres de'Aylonis go free?
6)
(a) Mar bar Rav Ashi queries the need for a Pasuk to teach us that a Bagar
de'Aylonis goes free. How does he extrapolate this from a 'Kal va'Chomer'
from Simanim?
(b) Then back comes the question, why does the Torah need to write
"ve'Yatz'ah Chinam" to teach us that a Bogeres de'Aylonis leaves the
jurisdiction of her master?
(c) Why is Mar bar Rav Ashi perturbed by the 'Kal va'Chomer'. Why does he
not just assume the principle 'Milsa de'Asya be'Kal va'Chomer Tarach
ve'Kasav Lah K'ra'?

7)
(a) We just learned that Rav Yehudah derives Kidushei Kesef from "Ein
Kesef". How does the Tana derive it from the Pasuk in Ki Seitzei "Ki
Yikach Ish Ishah u'Ve'alah ... "?
(b) From where does the Tana know that 'Kichah' means Kesef?
(c) We query the need for a Pasuk for Kidushei Kesef, because we could learn
a 'Kal va'Chomer' from Amah Ivriyah. Which 'Kal va'Chomer'?
(d) Why is a Yevamah, who can be acquired with Bi'ah and not with money, not
a Pircha on the 'Kal va'Chomer'?
8)
(a) Despite the 'Kal va'Chomer', the Tana concludes with the Pasuk "Ki
Yikach Ish". Rav Ashi explains that the Tana has a Pircha on the 'Kal
va'Chomer' from 'Ikra de'Dina'. Which Pircha is that?
(b) Why does he refer to the Pircha in this way?
(c) At the end of the day we have two D'rashos (that of Rav Yehudah Amar
Rav, and that of the Tana of the Beraisa). Having written ...
- ... "Ki Yikach", why does the Torah need to add "ve'Yatz'ah Chinasm Ein Kasef"?
- ... "ve'Yatz'ah Chinam Ein Kasef", why does the Torah need to add "Ki Yikach"?
9)
(a) What do we learn from the Pasuk "Ki Yikach Ish Ishah *u'Ve'alah*"?
(b) How do we try to learn this from a 'Kal va'Chomer' from Yevamah?
(c) On what grounds do we refute the Pircha from Amah ha'Ivriyah, who can be
acquired with Kesef but not with Bi'ah?
(d) Despite the 'Kal va'Chomer', the Tana concludes with the Pasuk
"u'Ve'alah". Rav Ashi explains that the Tana has a Pircha on the 'Kal
va'Chomer' from 'Ikra de'Dina'. Which Pircha is that? What is wrong with
learning a wife from a Yevamah in this regard?
