Berachos 53
***************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 53a [line 10]:
The words "Hach *Isura* Azal Lei"
should be "Hach *d'Isura* Azal Lei" (Dikdukei Sofrim #100 and Beis Nasan)
[2] Hagahos Rebbi Akiva Eiger 53a DH Rashi:
The words "*v'Nishmaso* Yotzei"
should be "*Nishmaso* Yotzei"
[3] Gemara 53b [line 12]:
*Tanu* Rabanan, Gechalim Lochashos
Perhaps these words should be
*d'Tanu* Rabanan, Gechalim Lochashos (with no colon) (M. KORNFELD)
