1) [line 16] NIDAH
(a) By Torah Law, a woman who has her period is a Nidah for seven days. It
makes no difference whether she saw blood only one time or for the entire
seven days. At the end of seven days, *after nightfall*, she immerses in a
Mikvah to become Tehorah.
(The current practice is to consider all women who have a show of blood to
be a Zavah and therefore they must have seven clean days before they go to
the Mikvah)
10b---------------------------------------10b
2) [line 2] SHELOSHIM U'SHELOSHIM BA'I - he requires thirty days (for the
plant to take root) and another thirty days (for the plant to be considered
as living for a year)
3) [line 6] KOLETES - take root
4) [line 27] V'CHODESH LI'MENUYAV V'SHANAH LI'MENUYEHA - one time period is
significant enough to be called one month if it is a counted using a unit by
which a month is counted, i.e. a day, and one time period is significant
enough to be called one year if it is counted using a unit by which a year
is counted, i.e. a month
