1) [line 24] 'HEI' D'GABEI D'RIBUYA, RUBUYA HI - The letter "Hei" that is attached to
a word that is a Ribuy (an inclusion, i.e. a qualification that enlarges the scope of
the law) is also a Ribuy
*2*) [line 26] V'HA LEIS LEI L'REBBI MEIR "MI'CHELAL LAV ATAH SHOME'A HEN" - see
Insights
3) [line 26] MI'CHELAL LAV ATAH SHOME'A HEN
(a) From a statement expressing a negative, the counter positive can be implied and
vice versa. This is a Halachic concept included in the laws of Tena'im
(stipulations). It also applies in other places where speech is needed, such as
Nedarim.
(b) This principle is the subject of a Machlokes between Rebbi Meir and Rebbi
Yehudah. Rebbi Meir rules that we cannot infer the counter expression from his
statement, but rather, it must be explicitly articulated. The Gemara (Shevu'os 36a)
discusses whether Rebbi Meir holds that the opposite cannot be inferred only in cases
of Mamon (monetary matters) or even in cases of Isur (non-monetary matters).
4) [line 29] UD'ISHAH ADIFA MID'ISH - the fire that consumes the wife is fiercer and
consumes sooner

6) [line 46] "...K'MA'ASEH LIVNAS HA'SAPIR, UCH'ETZEM HA'SHAMAYIM LA'TOHAR." -
"...the like of sapphire brickwork and like the very heavens for purity." (Shemos

8) [last line] NEYAR - paper

9) [line 1] DIFTERA - a hide that is treated with salt and flour, but not with gall
nuts (Afatzim), and that is not split in two
10) [line 2] KUMOS - an ink prepared with the sap/gum of the Acacia tree
11) [line 2] KANKANTUM - (O.F. adrement), vitriol, black ink used by shoemakers
12) [line 10] KI D'CHESIVA - like they are written (i.e. in order)
13) [last line] KASVAH IGERES - if he wrote it like a letter without Shirtut/Sirtut,
i.e. without etching or marking lines into the parchment as a guide for writing
straight (a requirement when writing more than three words of the Torah)
