***************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] Rashi 30a DH Shema Minah Rebbi Yehudah Hi:
The word "Reisha" is the beginning of a new Dibur

[2] Rashi 30a DH "Pasach v'Amar" and DH "Ki l'Chelev Chai":
These should be one Dibur (Rashash - and it is very correct)

[3] Gemara 30b [line 41]:
d'Asa l'Kamei d'Rebbi *Chiya* Amar Lei Imecha Ishti ...
In Ein Yakov, the Girsa is "l'Kamei *d'Rebbi*" (without the name Chiya),
which is consistent with the next line of the Gemara ************************************************

1) [line 1] REBBI YEHUDAH HI (MELACHAH SHE'EINAH TZERICHAH L'GUFAH)
When a person performs a Melachah (creative act) on Shabbos intentionally, but does not require the usual result of the action, Rebbi Yehudah rules that he is Chayav and Rebbi Shimon rules that he is Patur. For example, if a person digs a hole, not because he needs the hole but rather because he needs the sand, this is a Melachah she'Einah Tzerichah l'Gufah. (See Insights to Shabbos 12:1)
