quietly in an unassuming manner and is dearly missed by all who knew him.
His Yahrzeit is 10 Sivan.

1) [line 19] RAVA TOSFA'AH - Rava, the Reciter of Tosefta'os; alt. Rava, the
one who fully pronounces the words of the verses (see Rashi to Avodah Zarah
9a, in the middle and at the end of the page)
2a) [line 21] HA'BOR B'CHAFIRAH - the Bor is a pit that is dug into the
ground
b) [line 21] HA'DUS B'VINYAN - the Dus is a pit in the ground that is lined
with stones that rise above the surface of the ground. A Dus also has a
cover on top. (BI'UR HALACHAH Orach Chayim 587:1 in his explanation of the

3) [line 1] MOCHER; B'AYIN YAFAH MOCHER / B'AYIN RA'AH MOCHER
Rebbi Akiva and the Chachamam argue about what the nature of a seller is
when he sells property without specifying the if he is keeping anything for
himself. "Mocher, b'Ayin Yafah Mocher" means that a seller sells with good
will and does not keep any part of what he sells for himself, e.g. when a
person sells a field and does not sell the well in it, the seller must
purchase a path through the field from the buyer in order to be able to get
to his well, since he sold the field with "good will," not leaving a path
for himself. If the seller sells "b'Ayin Ra'ah," it means that he keeps a
certain part of what he is selling for himself.
4) [line 10] GAS - a winepress (which is dug into the ground)
5) [line 10] SHOVACH - a dovecote
6a) [line 10] CHAREVIN - desolate, uninhabited
b) [line 10] YISHUVIN - inhabited
7) [line 15] KASHI LEI DAVSHA - the trampling [of people walking through it]
is bad for it (the field)
