1)
(a) The Beraisa restricts the Din of one Matanah being Mefagel, to the
Matanos on the Mizbe'ach ha'Chitzon, but that will not be the case with
regard to the Matanos of the Mizbe'ach ha'Penimi. How many such cases are
there?
(b) How does the Tana arrive at ...
- ... the forty-three Matanos of Yom ha'Kipurim (given the eight in the Kodesh Kodashim [towards the lid of the Aron] and the eight in the Heichal [towards the Paroches] of both the Par and the Sa'ir)?
- ... the eleven Matanos of the Par Kohen Mashi'ach and the Par He'elam Davar shel Tzibur?
(c) Rebbi Meir says 'Pigeil bein ba'Rishonah, bein bi'Sheniyah, bein
bi'Shelishis', Pigul ve'Chayavin Alav Kareis'. What do the Chachamim say?
(d) What does Rebbi Meir mean by 'bein ba'Rishonah, bein bi'Sheniyah, bein
bi'Shelishis'?
2)
(a) What problem does this Beraisa create with Resh Lakish's current
statement?
(b) Rav Yitzchak bar Avin establishes that the Kohen was Mefagel by the
Shechitah. What does this mean? What is the case?
(c) So what if he was? How does that answer the Kashya on Resh Lakish?
(d) What problem do we now have with the Rabbanan?
3)
(a) Rava establishes the author as Rebbi Elazar. According to the Rabbanan
in a Mishnah in 'ha'Shochet ve'ha'Ma'aleh', one is Chayav for bringing a
k'Zayis ba'Chutz of the Kometz, Levonah, Ketores, Minchas Kohanim, Minchas
Kohen Mashi'ach or Minchas Nesachim. What does Rebbi Elazar say? Why is
that?
(b) What will Rebbi Elazar hold in a case where he brought the bulk of the
Korban bi'Fenim, and the last k'Zayis ba'Chutz?
(c) How does that explain the Chachamim of Rebbi Meir?
(d) We query this from Rava however, who maintains that even Rebbi Elazar
will agree that if the Kohen sprinkled one of the above three bloods
ba'Chutz he will be Chayav. Why is that?
4)
(a) Rava therefore (retracts from Rav Yitzchak's answer ['Kgon she'Pigeil
bi'Shechitah'] and) tries to establish Rebbi Meir (in the Beraisa currently
under discussion) when the Kohen had a Machsheves Pigul by the first and
third sets of Damim, but not by the second. What is then the Chidush? What
might we have otherwise thought?
(b) In which point do? the Chachamim then disagree with Rebbi Meir?
(c) Rav Ashi refutes Rava's explanation however, on the grounds of 'Midi
Shasak Katani'? What does he mean by that?
5)
(a) Rav Ashi himself therefore tries to establish Rebbi Meir, when he was
Mefagel by the first three sets of Matnos Damim, but not by the fourth (see
Tosfos DH 'K'gon'). What is the fourth set of Damim?
(b) What is then the Chidush?
(c) How do we refute Rav Ashi's explanation?
(d) So what is finally Rebbi Meir's reason?

6)
(a) On what S'vara can Pigul not take effect 'ad she'Yikrevu Kol Matirav'?
(b) Based on this principle, what is the problem now that we ascribe Rebbi
Meir's ruling to 'Mefaglin be'Chatzi Matir'?
(c) Why is this not a problem according to those who established the Beraisa
by Pigeil bi'Shechitah (or according to the Rabbanan who require a
Machsheves Pigul by all the parts of the Zerikah)?
7)
(a) Rabah establishes the case by four Parim or four Se'irim. What does he
mean by that?
(b) How do we now explain Rebbi Meir 'Pigeil bein ba'Rishonah, bein
bi'Sheniyah ... Pigul ve'Chayavin Alav Kareis'?
(c) But is this not the opinion of Rebbi Elazar and Rebbi Shimon, who hold
that if the blood spills, the Kohen brings another Par (or Sa'ir) and
continues where he left off?
8)
(a) Rava (or Abaye) establishes the Beraisa even by one Par and one Sa'ir,
because 'le'Pigulo Meratzeh'. What does he mean?
(b) The Tana of the current Beraisa refers to forty-three Matanos. How do
we reconcile this with the Beraisa which refers to ...
- ... forty-seven Matanos?
- ... forty-eight Matanos?
9)
(a) What does the Tana of another Beraisa mean when he says 'ba'Meh Devarim
Amurim, bi'Kemitzah, be'Matan K'li u've'Hiluch'?
(b) Which Avodah *is* the Levonah subject to?
(c) The Chachamim go on to say 'Nasan es ha'Kometz be'Machshavah ve'es
ha'Levonah bi'Shesikah, O es ha'Kometz bi'Shesikah ve'es ha'Levonah be
Machshavah, Ein Chayavin Alav Kareis'. Why is that?
(d) What does Rebbi Meir say? Why is this a Kashya on Resh Lakish?
10)
(a) How do we try to amend the Lashon ' ... ve'es ha'Levonah be'Machshavah',
to reconcile the Beraisa with Resh Lakish?
(b) What objection do we raise to that?
(c) How does another Beraisa word the same ruling which renders our
amendment impossible?
