prepared by Rabbi Eliezer Chrysler
Kollel Iyun Hadaf, Jerusalem
Previous daf
Shabbos 62
1)
(a) What is the Din regarding a woman who carries a needle with an eye or
wearing a signet-ring, in the street?
(b) Ula says that the opposite is true of a man. To what is he
referring and what does he mean?
(c) How does Ula, who differentiates between the 'Tachshit' of a man and
that of a woman, explain the Beraisa which permits anyone to wear soft sack
as a protection against rain - because that is what shepherds do? Why do we
not say that a woman is Patur from going out with with a signet-ring, since
it is the 'Tachshit' of a man?
(d) How does Ula account for the fact that a woman who finds Tefilin lying
in the street, may put them on and take them home - because they are
considered a Tachshit for a man?
2)
(a) What should someone do if he finds many pairs of Tefilin lying in the
street?
(b) According to the Rabbanan of Rebbi Meir, would a woman who found
Tefilin lying in the street, be permitted to put them on and take them
home?
3)
(a) Why should a man be Chayav for wearing a plain ring, and a woman for a
signet-ring, since in both cases, it is unusual to carry them in this way,
why is it not considered 'Hotza'ah Ke'le'achar Yad'?
(b) The Gemara first answered that the Mishnah is speaking about an 'Ishah
Gizbaris'. How would that answer the question?
4)
(a) Our Mishnah also forbids a woman to wear a 'Kuliar', a 'Koveles' and a
'Tzeluchis shel Pelaiton' in the street What is ...
1. ... a 'Kuliar'?
2. ... a 'Koveles'?
3. ... a 'Tzeluchis shel Pelaiton'?
(b) Is a woman Chayav if she *does* wear any of the above (two opinions),
and what are the respective reasons?
(c) Rebbi Eliezer permits her to wear a 'Koveles' Lechatchilah. Why?
(d) Rebbi has said 'Mutar'. In another Beraisa, he says 'Patur'. Why
does he do that?

Pelaiton' on Shabbos?
(b) What does he say about a 'Koveles' from with the balsam has been
removed?
(c) Assuming that it still contains the aroma of the spice that had been
there before, is she still Chayeves for carrying it?
(d) Does this mean that Rebbi Eliezer disagrees with the S'tam Mishnah in
ha'Matzni'a, which rules that someone who carries half a Gerogeres (the
Shiur of food for which one is Chayav for carrying on Shabbos) in a box, is
Patur even for carrying the box? Why should he Patur on the box there, but
not on the bottle in *our* case?
