***************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 11a [line 24]:
The words "v'Yitnenah *b'Tzad* ha'Ner

*21*) [line 14] U'MAI SHENA GABEI KIRTZUF - that is, Rebbi Yehudah should have prohibited Kirtzuf, combing with a thick-tined comb on Yom Tov, due to Rabbinic decree. Even though people are careful to stay away from Isurei Shabbos and Rebbi Yehudah saw no need to enact Rabbinic decrees on Shabbos, nevertheless they are not as careful to stay away from Isurei Yom Tov, and therefore Kirtzuf should be prohibited on Yom Tov -- MELO HA'RO'IM, see Ya'aetz.
