***************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] Mishnah 105a [line 31]:
"ha'Oseh Shtei Batei Nirin b'Nirin *b'Kiros*"

(a) The Girsa of Dikdukei Sofrim, #2, is *uv'Kiros*. This Girsa is also
found in the Mishnah in the Yerushalmi and in the Rosh, and this is the
Girsa that Rashi copied in the Mishnah as well as the Gemara. It seems that
Rashi's explanation is that the warp threads must be initially placed
through the Nirin (heddle - see Background below, #12) *and* then through
the Kirus, which is similar to the explanation of the Tosfos Yom Tov to our
Mishnah.

(b) However, from the words of Rabeiniu Chananel it seems clear that his
Girsa is *b'Kirus*, as in our Gemaros. He explains that this word does not
apply to the warp threads at all, rather, it means a type of strainer
similar to the Napah that is mentioned at the end of the Mishnah. The
Metzovyesa of the Gemara is the same object.

[2] Gemara 105a [line 44]:
The words "3 Batei Nirin, *veha'Oreg*"
should be "3 Batei Nirin, *ha'Oreg*"
as the Bach #4 emended above

[3] Rashi 105a DH l'Mah Zeh Domeh:
The words "v'Lo *Amrei*"
should be "v'Lo *Amrinan*"
This is the Girsa of the Warsaw edition

[4] Rashi 105a DH Tartei b'Vatei Nira:
The words "b'Vas Nira d'Hainu she'Korin *Litz"a*"
should be "b'Vas Nira d'Hainu she'Korin *Pintz"a*"
This is the Girsa in the Ran -- this is also evident since Rashi writes
below that a "*Nira*" is called "Litz"a"
************************************************

9) [line 25] EIN YEDI'AH L'CHATZI SHI'UR
(a) If a person does a Melachah of Shabbos b'Shogeg (thinking that it is permissible) and afterwards learns of his sin, but then forgets that this same Melachah is prohibited and does it again, he has to bring two Korbanos (since there were two He'elemos, i.e. periods of forgetfulness).

(b) Raban Gamliel rules that if the same occurred but the person did *less* than the amount required to be Chayav each time (e.g. writing less than two letters), the actions are not split up by the knowledge of the sin. He must bring a Korban Chatas if the total was more than the required amount.

10) [line 29] ARIG - a weave
11) [line 31] HA'OSEH SHTEI BATEI NIRIN - if a person threads two of the threads of the loom (warp, or Shesi) through their loops on the heddle (the harness which holds the loops that the strings of Shesi pass through)

12) [line 31] B'NIRIN - on the heddle (see above, #11)
13) [line 31] UV'KIROS - and then he continues to thread the strings through the comb at the end of the loom (see Insights to the Gemara) (RASHI); alternatively, Kiros has nothing to do with a loom. It is a type of strainer (RABEINU CHANANEL)

b) [line 35] KETINEI - thin threads
c) [line 37] YEDIEI - are recognizable

This is the same as the distance between a person's thumb and index finger when they are spread apart.

*28*) [line 5] SHI'URO KI'MLO HA'SIT - the Shi'ur of each of the two threads is one Sit. (That is, the lengths two threads together add up to a double Sit, which is the Shi'ur of a thread for which one is Chayav for spinning etc. on Shabbos, as the Mishnah said earlier.)

29) [line 13] CHOLTZIN - bear their shoulders by tearing their garments
30) [line 14] MAVRIN ALAV BA'RECHAVAH - others provide the mourners with refreshments or a meal outside, on their way home from the funeral

32) [line 30] MELACHAH SHE'EIN 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)
