Answers to questions
87b---------------------------------------87b
6)
(a) "Mishpat", 'Zeh ha'Din' (regarding a 'Gezeirah-Shavah', as we explained
above). What does Rava quoting Rav Yitzchak learn from the
'Gezeirah-Shavah' "Heinah" "Heinah" and "Zimah" "Zimah, with which the Zaken
Mamrei disagreed?
(b) And the bone of contention between him and the Beis-Din with regard to
"Dam le'Dam" vis-a-vis Dam Nidah, revolves around the Machlokes between
Akavya ben Mahalalel and the Rabbanan in the Mishnah in Nidah. What sort
of blood are they arguing about?
(c) Whereas with regard to Dam Leidah, it revolves around the Machlokes
between Rav and Levi. What does Rav mean when he says 'Ma'ayan Echad Hu'?
(d) According to Levi however, the two bloods are from two different
sources. What are the ramifications of their Machlokes?
7)
(a) The Torah writes in Tazri'a with regard to the three sightings of Zivus
"ve'Ishah Ki Yazuv Zov Damah Yamim Rabim". What do we learn from the word
"Damah"?
(b) In this context, the third Dam revolves around a Machlokes between Rebbi
Eliezer and Rebbi Yehoshua in another Mishnah in Nidah. According to Rebbi
Eliezer, we do not ascribe the blood to the birth, if there was a break of
twenty-four hours (whenever they occur). What does Rebbi Yehoshua say?
(c) Is seeing blood the sole criterion for the Din of 'Shafsah' (the break)?
8)
(a) We established 'Bein Din le'Din' by Diynei Mamon, Nefashos and Malkos.
With regard to Diynei Mamon, they argue over the Machlokes between Shmuel
and Rebbi Avahu. Shmuel holds 'Shenayim she'Danu, Dineihem Din'. What does
Rebbi Avahu say?
(b) How does this Machlokes involve Kareis and Chatas?
(c) And with regard to Diynei Nefashos, they argue over the Machlokes
between Rebbi and the Rabbanan. Rebbi holds in the case of 'Niskaven
La'harog es Zeh ve'Harag es Zeh', the murderer is Chayav to pay. What do
the Rabbanan say?
(d) How does this Machlokes involve Kareis and Chatas?
9)
And regarding Malkos, they argue over the Machlokes between Rebbi Yishmael,
who requires twenty-three Dayanim for Malkos, and the Rabbanan, who suffice
with three. How might this Machlokes lead to Kareis or a Korban Chatas?
10)
(a) "Bein Nega la'Naga" comes to include the three kinds of Nega'im. The
Machlokes between the Zaken Mamrei and Beis-Din by 'Nig'ei Adam is that of
Rebbi Yehoshua and the Rabbanan. A Baheres requires two white hairs in the
middle of it. Which must come first for the Baheres to be Tamei?
(b) The Rabbanan maintain that a Safek is Tamei. Rebbi Yehoshua says
'Keiheh'. How does Rava interpret 'Keiheh'? What is its significance?
(c) How might this Machlokes involve Kareis or Chatas?
11)
(a) With regard to Nig'ei Batim, they argue over the Machlokes between Rebbi
Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon and the Rabbanan in the Mishnah in Nega'im (which we
already discussed in 'ben Sorer u'Moreh'). Rebbi Elazar b'Rebbi Shimon
requires the Shiur of two Gerisin by one, on two bricks of two walls in the
corner, where the two walls meet. What do the Rabbanan say?
(b) How might this Machlokes involve Kareis or a Chatas?
12)
(a) And regarding 'Nig'ei Begadim', they argue over the Machlokes between
Rebbi Nasan ben Avtulmus and the Rabbanan. What does Rebbi Nasan ben
Avtulmus learn from the 'Gezeirah-Shavah' "Karachas ve'Gabachas" (Nigei
Begadim) from "Karachas ve'Gabachas" (Nig'ei Adam), regarding 'Perichah'?
What is Perichah?
(b) What do the Rabbanan hold?
(c) How would this Machlokes lead to Kareis or Chatas?
