***************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] Gemara 30b [line 41]:
*David* Sha'ani, d'Havah Metza'er Nafshei *b'Rachamei*
(a) The word b'Rachamei does not appear in Dikdukei Sofrim #4.
(Accordingly, the meaning of the Gemara is that David is different because
he humbled himself very much in *all* of his matters, as is stated in
Megilah 11a "David Hu ha'Katan... -M. KORNFELD)

(b) The Girsa of the Behag was "*Melech* Sha'ani (and he *was* Gores
b'Rachamei). Accordingly, the meaning of the Gemara is that a king must
humble himself in prayer very much, as is found later on Daf 34b, that a
king must bend over for the duration of the Shemoneh Esrei - Sifsei
Chachamim. (This is also the meaning of our Gemara's Girsa -- David prayed
differently since he was a king)
